Grand Cue tips

[steve7698]

didnt we just accept the fact that it took time to bed in a new tip? Nowadays the main selling point of tips is they need little or no bedding in.

Have elks really got worse or is it just that the players have?! When we were younger playing well and had no knowledge of tips or anything else, we got on with it.

If anyone has used both a Buffalo Diamond Plus and a Grand tip medium, please let me know your thoughts on comparison between the two tips. Thanks in advance.

No I think they got worse .

the trouble with tips is , They May Not play well on one cue But feel just about right on another cue.
For example, we did put One Of Those grand tips on a Steve Grice cue ( stiff shaft )and we got lots of deflection. We traid the same with JP cue ( midd stiff ) and it played perfectly. Difficult to judge imo .
. But if I would have to choose a tip for a cue with (Lets say Midd stiff shaft), then I prefer the Grand tips.
BDP tips are generaly good playing tips on every cue .

Excellent tip , I am so confident using the soft ones when all bedded in !

hi, the grands tip medium is it similar to the mike super tip second generation?

[soon ming]

Ok after round two with the grand tip medium i can safely say the best pressed tip out there at the moment,i sanded down 50% of the tip and played 10 frames with a mate yesterday,doesnt miss cue or loose shape isnt too hard ,i find it a little harder than an elk but i think elks are too soft anyway,tips i have tried in thye past are mw super tip,blue diamond,elk master,elk master pro,phoenix medium red,phoenix black,adr 147,buffalo diamond,
I dont think i would buy the soft buts thats up to the player,id like to try the hard tip in UK 8 ball pool.

it is very difficult to compare two different tips - people ask this sort of thing a lot it is not really an easy question to answer. the medium are a lot like mikes original tips.

[Erwan_BZH]

Agreed Andrew. Put one on on a mate's cue and it was too hard for him. Tried it and it was more or less like the MW Original Super tip I had on mine at the time. So let's say more medium/hard than medium...:P
