Thanks for sharing, I rate them highly myself, was just curious to know whether that was the same for others at the highest level...Don't let the fear of losing be greater than the excitement of winning...

If you're a beginner, stick to the elks or the Blue diamonds. You won't be able to spot the benefits/negatives of a layered tip. Likewise if you don't play a lot.
There's too much talk on here of folk who chop and change tips after a few hours play. That's just ridiculous. You can spot a bad (duff) tip from the first couple of shots or even when you're shaping it. But you really can't form an opinion on whether a tip works for you or not without playing 2/3 times a week for a good 2/3 weeks.
I play a fair bit and have just tried the pro granite tips on my new cue for the last month. At first it felt great, needed no time to play and I thought I had found my new tip of choice. Two weeks on, fully bedded in and it was too firm for my taste.
Chucked an elk on and even though it's still not bedded in. I'm more than happy with it compared to the Pro granite. I think we get suckered in to thinking that if it's new and we've paid a premium for it, it must be better.
I also hear the comment "it's like a good elk" a lot. You know what else is like a good Elk? Oddly enough, an elk
