Moori Hard, I like the crispness, solid feel they give. Mediums are very good, but I prefer hard. Alot of players I know get mediums and say: well after I play with it for awhile it will pack down and play like a hard anyway. Well in my experience when a moori meduim is down to it's "last life" last layers, I think they become a very akward feeling tip, kind of dead. I'm not talking about 1/2 a tip, or 1/4 tip, more like 2 layers + the crown of the tip. The hard plays the same from the day I put it on to the day I cut it off. I can also break 9-ball very well with it, More control on the break shot, I use my break cue for 8-ball mostlly. As far as spining the ball, As arogent as it sounds, I do have a very good stroke, Mike Massey/Tom Rossman were doing some trick shot clinics and they said they'ed like to bottle my stroke and sell it, Buddy hall type stroke, I don't have trouble getting whitey to move. I also Like super pro's-great tip for the price. Wizards and sting rays are new on the market and I enjoyed hitting balls with those.
But, My very favorite 2 tips are,
#1 the old 11 layered Instroke tips Seyberts used to sell, no longer being made, I used Meduims they were the best feeling tip I ever had. I installed 2 new one's on my lambros 1 week before I retired it, damn it, they were my last 2. I recently met a fellow repair man that had 3 instroke hards, He sold them to me, I had a smile on my face all day, will use one on 1 shaft of my next playing cue.
If anyone has these let me know, I might be interested in purchasing them.
#2 Black widow tips Made by Keith Hanson of Keith's custom Cues. These tips are Hard/firm. But the feel is/was unreal. He only lives 90 miles from me, maybe I should contact him and take a road trip.
