Question about tip shape...

One of the things I do when I go to a tournament and play the occasional champion is to sneak a peek at their cue tips.

And my observation has been that you are indeed correct with all of them playing with pretty flat tips, like a nickel or maybe even a quarter radius.

I'm curious. Is it that it can work better for expert players for some reason but has less margin for error? Just personal preference? New trend?

Camera views can be misleading but was watching some match on YT the other night and noticed what appeared to be the same thing, then watched another and one seemed pretty flat, but I wouldn't want to bet much on it from my armchair.

I've heard that ball better or worse since I started playing and still don't know what it refers to. Is it the number of balls you can consistently get out on?

It's how many balls you need vs any particular player.

So if you usually get/need 10-7 and you get better you would get/need 9-7 and have improved a ball.

Funny Things Said to You at the Pool Room

EDRJR
I was sweating a tournament at a local pool room, sitting next to a friend. The waitress, who had the former house pro's baby, was complaining about lack of child support or even help from his Mom. She says, "Never let a pool player get you pregnant." He replies, "Don't worry. I'd never let any of these guys touch me." Funniest line I'd ever heard.
