As i've stated in the other kamui/Moori medium comparisons, Itried the Kamui M after being very satisfied with my ususal MooiIII M and preferred the MooriIII. The Kamui was, in fact, a harder tip but I didn't like the kamui feel either. Maybe it was just too hard and it almost sounded different as well. Sort of high pitched. But I've recently tried a Kamui black S and really liked it alot. I have ordered one to try on my 314/2 shaft. But if you thinbk you may need a harder tip than a MooriIII you may like the Kamui black M. The Kamui black soft is perhaps a touch softer than a MooriIII M, but not by much But the grip this tip has results in effortless English. That was a real plus. It will take some time to get used to it , but I think I finally may have found a tip that I like better than my old standby, the MooriIII M.

An addendum...put the Kamui Black Soft on my cue (Pechauer Pro Series butt w/ 314-2 shaft) and it's even a better than my older "standard" Moori III med. Better feel, a lot more grip...perfect combo for the 314-2 shaft. I'm still getting used to CB control....I'm still over spinning w/ the kamui Black S, but it's really going to work out well...less effort for same amount of "juice"....nice!
