Just made at decent run, have some questions.

I ran 212 today, I feel pretty good, but the shot I missed, I shouldnt have, it was 3' from the pocket, Then I noticed the tip on my cue was mushroomed a lil, when your on a high run do you stop occasionaly to groom your tip?...lol Im using a Triangle, just put on the other day, Naturaly once the tip wears down a lil it will stabilize somewhat, and useualy last me a long time, Do you cut a new tip down? press it or something? Playing straight pool I really like a Triangle tip, I dont like the fact it gets hairy on the sides and mushrooms. I quess Im curious as to what tips your guy's use?

Congrats, Spindoktor! I'm embarrassed to give you any advice, since I'm still fighting to break 100. I use a Moori medium (the old kind, not the brand new type out). I play with the thing constantly (4x a week at least) for months on-end and it NEVER goes out of shape or mushrooms.... and I still have the "zip" of a triangle. I think it's the best tip I've ever played with. Check it out-

lol, yeah, the mushrooming isnt what ended my run, I made a mental error, when I realized how many balls I had ran Fear hit me, I manged to run another 12 balls but I was seriously struggling. The Mushroomed tip just added to the pressure, what I should have done was take a small break, groom my tip and get back the focous.


I know someone mentioned Talisman, and I recently came across KAMUI tips, what Im wondering is is there a Layered tip available that grips the cue ball as good as a triangle? I was thinking of trying one or the other, or possibly a sniper, the cue Im using is a P2 with a original 314 uni lock shaft.


thanks, SPINDOKTOR

i've got no credintials to give you advice, i'm super impressed with your run and just told you about the snooker players to possibly put your mind at ease, i'm very happy for you, while your hitting them like this I'd play as much as you can-thats my advice yur an a roll keep it up!!!! CONGRATS-man thats strong and the best part is onceyou did it, no one can take it away from you, 200 is HUGE!!!! at any level, wow
