I am surprised that at various on-line English cue stores they recommend (or practically insist) that 8/8.5mm tips are to be used for 8 ball. I don't know how many people from the States we have here, but the idea of using an 8mm tip in pool is extremely odd to me. Go into *any* pool hall in the USA and you will not find a tip smaller than 10 mm on any of the house cues. Also, if you look at the cues that guys bring in, they're at least 10 mm, usually larger.
Why is it that these smaller tips are recommended for pool on English sites? Check the drop-down menus at this site:
