I do cue repair on normal playing cues on a regular basis. However, I have a customer asking me to change the tip on his Billiard cue. I have very little experience w/ billiard cues and am not familiar w/ what is preferred on them. What are the most widely used tips that most players use on their billiards cue? Since the diameter of a Billiard cue is so small, I am somewhat reluctant to put a layered tip like a Moori on; only because it seems like a waste of a tip to have to trim so much of the tip off. Any reply's would be greatly appreciated and I thank everyone in advance for any help they provide.
 
Mooris work fine. Any high quality tip medium to medium hard is usually what is preferred.. I ssk my repair man to slightly taper the tip. It helps with mushrooming. Yea they all claim no mushrooming.. Not my experience although the Sniper tip seems to do the best so far.
