Is there a preferred cue set up (tip, weight, taper) optimized for kicking and banking?
No.................Is there a preferred cue set up (tip, weight, taper) optimized for kicking and banking?
The cue must do the same things for every kind of shot (except maybe breaking and masse).Is there a preferred cue set up (tip, weight, taper) optimized for kicking and banking?
Why?

Oh, that...Banks are generally played little higher speed..tip deformation etc. but yeah it mostly doesn’t matter lol
No, just takes alot of practice and learning from watching players who are good at it.Is there a preferred cue set up (tip, weight, taper) optimized for kicking and banking?
Oh, that...
I don't play much banks (the game), but I bank a lot in other games and don't play them any harder than necessary to get shape - like any other shot.

I've tried on kick shots to wipe off the chalk before I shoot so I don't put unwanted spin on the cue ball.
It is better to build a good stroke, but sometimes no chalk can help a kick go where you aim it.
