Hey AZB,

This is yet another, TIP advice request.

I've got both CF, LD & Regular Old School wood shafts, I've put various tips on them, and switch between playing with them all regularly. I've leaned towards the Kamui Tips for years now, but I have several that have other brands installed. (Ultraskin, Triangle, Pred Victory, G2. Kamikaze)

My Main LD Wood player = Tiger Sniper
CF#1 = Prev Victory (Med) - Not a fan, have one also on a wood shaft & just don't love either one.
CF#2 = Soon to be an Kamui Athlete.
Have a couple wood shafts with Kamui Blacks
Have 3-4 with variations of the Ultraskins.
and almost everything I only shoot with occasionally has a Triangle on it.

I like the Sniper, I like the Kamui's I think the Ultraskins are a good all-around tip, but I want to try something new, and after reading a lot of threads/posts & doing some youtube review watching, I was hoping to narrow down to installing (2) new tips on a couple of spare shafts.

What should I go with?
I've read some good things on the Caiden tips, HOW Titan etc...

Thoroughbred. You're welcome. 😉
 
Very few things are more subjective, having said that…

Budget tip, Wizard. That's what Chris Nitti uses as his stock tip and for about four dollars it's impossible to beat!

About two years ago I bought a shaft that had a HOW medium tip on it and I liked it enough to stick with it.

Kamui blacks glaze over pretty bad...I would try the HOW tips. Joshua Filler uses one and he's the best ranked player in the world. Or give a Moori a try.

I've been using them for over four years now and not one of the 12+ tips i've put on had this glazing issue.
 
Zan Hybrid Max on my main playing carbon shafts, Techno-duds on my playing wood shafts, and Ultraskins on any other non-breaking cues.
 
I'm normally not picky at all and don't notice a ton of difference between tips. I adjust quickly to whatever I happen to be using.
The last couple of years, I've used:
Kamui
How
Zan
Ultraskin
I've also used lepro, elkmaster, pretty much every tiger tip, moori, talisman, and others.
A few days ago I put a Caiden Fighter M and noticed a pretty significant difference to the Ultraskin Pro I had just taken off.
More spin with less effort.
They are the most expensive tip I stock, but I think I'll be using them for a while, and recommending them to others.
 
+1 for Thoroughbred, not too expensive and no glazing or mushrooming issues.
 
Zan Hybrid Max has been my choice for years. I play quite seldom and with Zan I never get any problems with glazing or tip drying sitting in the bag.
