Grand Cue tips

[Fisherboi]

Had second session with the grand H tip.
Played about 4hrs.
This time the tip mushroom Abit. After touching up is fine again
I find the tip is hard, but not dead hard. Suit my game well, still happy with the tip.
The tip mushroom maybe I was playing on a slow table which required abit more effort moving the white :snooker:

As far as Grand tips are concerned Medium is the way to go imo

I would go along with that. none are soft but they are miles better than elks.

I prefer the adr calf skin tips more

Isn't the closest thing to the old Elks Diamond Plus?

[fkhan]

Yes. But I think they are softer than adr calf skin tips.

Well, I'd known it for a couple of sessions, my tip had turned into a piece of slate! I'd been putting off changing it as I haven't fitted a laminate before! But thanks to Fisherboi and Shockerz it's not turned out bad at all. Thanks guys.

Which sort of Grand is it?

And the Laminate is?

Is that a grand medium?

[Cue crafty]

Sorry chaps, it's a Phoenix black, so wrong thread, but there isn't really a right one....

Do you mean the worktop Blah?

[blahblah01]

Too weary to be witty, lol.


Which tip have you dumped and gone to...

Changed for the same Blah. They are buffalo hide laminate, like them, and don't have time to experiment. Another reason I left changing it too long.

Time to count sheep. Zzzzzzzz.

[blahblah01]

Ah I was confused as in the Grand thread.

I have moved to Cuesoul soft, the SS were too soft : so few tips are available in 11m+....

has anyone found any difference between the chalked and unchalked versions of the grand tips? I used a pre chalked grand soft which was brilliant but after a while it became rock hard, losing grip and feel. no amount of sanding, picking at it would revive it for long. would the un-chalked version be any better?

Yes they are. Much better imo
