Your thoughts on best single layered tip

Definitely try the Ki-Tech. I think the medium is about the same hardness as a Kamui black soft. Maybe even a hair softer. I think I would LOVE the new medium hard Ki-Tech. For me the ideal hardness is about 1/2 way between a Kamui black soft and medium.
Hope this helps,

Just order Jeff's duds .
Pressed evenly and are kept domed .

And here I thought I had converted ya Joey LOL Ahh well cannot win them all.....
After reading this thread, I bought the sample pack of ki-tech tips.
I put on the medium one because people on here said it played like a good old triangle ( which I've played with for 20 yrs+).
It is sooo soft, the lathe just chopped it down instead of cutting it down.
When I hit the cue ball, it goes 'thuudd'!
It mushroomed after 2 racks of 9 ball.
Glad I only paid $20+ for them.
No more 'outsville' fo me, you got me once, thats it.

Hi Fred, not sure who repairs your cues local here, but Frankie Doodle has Triangle tips, he got me using them about 8 or 9 years ago, I was a LepRo user from the 70's. Now I love the Triangle tips, good hit and feel for me and I dont have to re-shape them, cause I suck at that LOL.
A local cue repair told me that Triangle makes up most of his replacements. I asked Mike Lambros what his preferred tip is and it is also Triangle.
I would bet that most cue makers use them unless something else is requested.

A lot of the cues I have from the 90's still have the original Lepro tips.
It's interesting how the original Lepro's on older cues play pretty good, when the
Lepro tips on newer cues hit like crap, even the double pressed Lepro's.
I'm starting to think that a good Triangle with a fiber pad is the way to go.
Triangle should come out with their version of the "clear">>>:smile:
I like the Ki-tech medium, Jeff's Milkduds, good triangle or Le Pro...all very good tips.
Triangle and LePro's are too iffy now.I've tried too many tips to list.The best that I've found are Jeff/pooldawg8's milkduds for a couple of my cues and a Water Buffalo tip sold by Seyberts listed as "Schon" tips on a couple other cues.Both tips have been great,(for me),and I break hard with either with zero mushrooming,very little maintenance !!!
