Thoroughbred Tips Introduction Giveaway!!!

So this tip that you developed for some reason looks just like the PreciSion tips that you purchased just prior to venturing out and making your own.. Good attempt at copying and using another cuemaker to help promote but I assure you that it's just another copy of what other people have spent time developing.
I would like to try one.
Oh, you got me! Lol
Yes, I bought a medium and a soft for someone on my league team. I do all of their tip replacements for basically free. They just pay for the tip which I said I would pick up. I also bought some G2's, Ultraskins, Lepros and Triangles. Everyone likes different things, tips are no different. Maybe I should have purchased a Hard Precision tip so I could copy it too.
Next time have Dennis Searing do some better research for you or call Richard Harris and ask him yourself why these tips came to exist. It wasn't to copy Dennis Searing, it was to replace the junk tips Kamui has been producing lately that Richard used for the last 17 years.
You must think I'm some kind of wizard to produce tips that you say copy the Precision tips only a short time after I bought the Precision tips. I guess that makes me a whole lot smarter than Dennis if it supposedly took him 3 years to develop his tip. If I had started selling the Thoroughbred tips before Dennis, would that make Dennis a copy cat? I'm sure someone way before Dennis made 8 layered pigskin tips.

Here is a clip of me shooting a few balls with the Thoroughbred medium tip... Hits pretty nice... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5YTEDBZ5DU&t=2s
Great tips!
I just sent in my second order. I tried the MS, M and MH because I'm partial to harder tips. I like all 3, but the MH will be my favorite. I used to use Stingray tips 15 years ago, but stopped when they added the outline of a stingray on them. I felt they just didn't grab as well as they used to. These grab well. Try them, you'll like them.

Been busy so hadn’t gotten the trial tip installed until a few weeks ago. MS - installed nice, cut very easily. Flattened out after a few hours of play, reshaped and haven’t touched it since. Holds chalk, performs as expected. Hasn’t mushroomed at all. A quality tip that I wouldn’t hesitate installing another when this one is gone.
I posted this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5YTEDBZ5DU&t=2s ) a couple months ago for the review and so people could see the action and hear the tink... When I played the 4 ball with just a little high left, the cue ball took off perfectly.... The Thoroughbred tip (MH) is on my cue now and will most likely stay..... I tried a hard and it hit really nice, but felt more comfortable with the medium hard......
Tip Review
I got my tip installed and have about 8 or so hours of play on it.
The tip holds chalk extremely well. In fact so well that I would probably order one in the next hardness up. The medium played more like a soft with the grip it had.
I like the fact each tip had the hardness marked with it. You can literally order tips with exactly the same hardness each time. Perfect for people like me who are very peculiar about what I use.
I am using this on an Andy Gilbert with SS joint and his standard maple shaft.

I like this tip! Plays well holds chalk well also. Haven’t had any issues with it glazing or mushrooming. It’s easy to shape and spins the cue ball nicely. I installed one on my sons cue and he likes it as well, so I would recommend giving this a try if your in need of a new tip! Thanks for the free one gutshot
I was given one of these tips in this thread, and I have just recently put it on so I thought it only right to give my thoughts. I put the tip on a Pechauer 30", 11.75mm LD shaft...
The guy who put it on for me immediately noted the tip " had a good color to it". I don't know what that means, but thought it was peculiar.
The first think I noticed was that it held chalk really well, and continues to do so. I have played for a week 2-3 hours per day. with no mushrooming or deformation.
I got the "soft" version and boy is it ever. I would probably prefer the medium, but it seems to grab the cue ball really well. Overall, I like it much better than the Pechauer gold navigator tip that it replaced...and truth be told, maybe a tad better than the ultraskin medium I have on another shaft...I would have no problem buying these or recommending them.
