I tend to sometime blow shot because I forgot to Chalk for each shot.
Master Green did not fail me I forgot to apply chalk.
I see people Chalkin top or high point of Tip. No Chslk on edge of Tip causes mid-cue-ing.

Made by folks that do Silver Cup.
Well Dr. Dave sould be sent some to test, his opinion seem fairly unbiased.
I like the Taom Pyro gray. I started using it to keep from touching communal chalk during the start of the pandemic and just got used to it and one piece will last me several months. I can't really say if it is better or worse than the Masters blue I used for years. It is a lot cleaner on my hands.
Just curious how green magic chalk or any other kind of green chalk would discolor Tournament blue Simonis cloth. I imagine it wouldn’t look very good?
I've never been a fan of master chalk. So messy and don't really like to chalk after every shot. I tried predator but it was super messy as well. Due to mutual respect with Chris Renfro I tried his chalk and fell in love with it. Great white is an amazing chalk and even though it's around $10 a piece it lasts a very long time. It also lasts a very long time per chalk. I chalk at my seat and leave the chall there. Never comes to the table with me no matter how long an inning goes. I can't recall any but 1 miscue in the last 5 or 6 years using it.
Green masters is my all time favorite. I had a gross of silver up grey I got when I was like 14 and I just used up the last cube a handful of years ago ( I gave away 3 dozen to a school program I helped start…). I’m 37 now so it lasted years lol. The silver cup was kinda gritty fwiw.
I was given two cubes of the great white (white) I also like it a whole lot. I’ve also used kamui. I do like the GW better but for both the whole dirty ball and table thing is all due to misapplication as I never had any issues using either. If you use it like a bar banger grinding some masters…sure it’ll leave a mess.
Fwiw chalk isn’t chalk but it all works quite well. Personally I’ll keep using those two cubes of GW till they are gone and I’ll probably get some more. I do like for how I use it it doesn’t leave any color residue on any of my equipment/cues. Less is way more with the stuff.

Agree with you. For some reason, the Green Masters goes on easy, smooth, stays on, seems to be different from the blue. I don't know what it is, but I have heard others say it too, and it's my favorite. The light green.Green masters is my all time favorite.

I use Tweeten Triangle in tan/beige, mostly because I really can't stand seeing a blue or green stained shaft!
I like a color that closely matches my stick (and because Tweeten is the choice of Ronnie O'Sullivan!)
Can't honestly say I can detect a difference in performance, one brand or another... Also, it's cheap. I asked my equipment supplier to get some in the tan/beige color and when I went to pick it up he gave me the box free of charge!
I do appreciate my supplier!

Fast tone, you are the only person I have ever heard that has complained about Kamui chalk. I have used it for several years in many places and no one has complained. I like it because you do not have to chalk the tip as often and it seems to stay on the tip better. Yes it is expensive, but I am going on two years with the same piece. I play in two leagues every week and practice at home every day possible for at least an hour. I also chalk across the tip instead of grinding it on the top. But everyone has their likes and dislikes. Bank on.
Predator blue is just for you....

I met up with some friends for our weekly practice session and tried my predator blue chalk granted I do chalk up before every shot normally a old good habit that's hard to break but after a hour my hand was nice and blue so chances are I'll trade off what I've got for some masters green maybe blue .
he's not alone. i can't stand it, way too messy. taom on the other hand is very good and leaves little residue.
