Traditional wood shafts making comeback?

There was a thread about trying new tips, one of the posters said he had been using the same tip for 40 years, what tip would you recommend for him? I would say the same one he's been using for 40 years, I would say the same thing for all equipment, if you love what you are using there is no magic (insert new billiard equipment here) that is "better" for you, if you are not happy with your equipment it's a different story, just don't let advertising hype drive the change, I never thought I would like hard tips but trying a tip I believed to be a Med tip but was actually hard, got me to start trying hard tips and I am happy I made the switch.

Yes and no.. maybe you’ve never tried anything different. I would say maybe if you never tried a soft or medium tip and you’ve always played hard tips maybe try a friends or have one put on an extra shaft . You may like it and may play better for your game. I do over all agree. I’ve never been one to change cue’s a lot. I think it should be an extension to your arm that you give no thought to once your playing.
