Snooker Cue Tips Weird But Good

Mate I’d be changing the ferrule first, look at the state of it! 😮

Once again, you've put out a well-conceived, -produced, -edited video that gives an in-depth objective analysis about one of the greatest games humanity has achieved. Your videos have been a welcome reprieve even before quarantine, but since then I've been deliberately staying up late on Friday nights (in my time zone in Saskatoon, Canada) to watch your videos as soon as they get posted. Thanks for all you do, and all the information and inspiration! Also, sorry for the paragraph.

Just installed the tips and taken them for a spin. Massive difference to the amount of control you get and minimal chalk needed which makes me happy as I don’t like using loads of chalk

I purchased the mixed pack of 10mm Cuesoul tips two years ago and tested them all against the Talisman soft tip. The talisman is a great tip, but it's quite hard and the margin for error is far less on some shots. It also "popped" after six months. I play English 8 ball pool, and the tip I settled on was the medium Cuesoul. It offered the perfect balance of feel, striking power, spin and control. It's also an excellent break tip so you don't need to take a second break cue. I went from an average 50/50 season to winning the merits and picking up the team league Cup. The tip made a massive difference in my play and confidence. If I hadn't have watched your video during lock down I never would have known about these tips. Well worth a try.

How do you play with the end of your cue that beat up...looking at that while I'm cueing up would do my head in..lol. Love your channel- Marcus from Bridgwater, Somerset, England. 👍👍

I haven't watched your re-tipping video, after watching this don't think I could stomach it.

The best tips out there...are the videos on Break from Life Bobby - Easton, Pennsylvania, United States of America

Brothers Zach and Zeke Duran here, enjoying your channel from small town Delta, Colorado, USA! Easy to understand instruction, and just the right amount of comedy. Keep them coming!

Cue soul is alright but for me I love the Tiger sniper since using that tip for 9 ball pool on my american cue I ended up installing one on my snooker cue as well. Best tip I've used not to soft not too hard soft/medium tip and its very grippy. The amount of spin i get is unreal.

Been watching your videos for a few years now! from Skopje, Macedonia.

Loved this! The larger tip seems like the better choice, IMO. Happy to be watching from Wolfville, Nova Scotia, Canada!! (No pins In NS yet!!) Thanks for your time and videos!

Great video. I’ve been watching from Phoenix Arizona for awhile now. I have a pool table for the last 6 years with little improvement until recently with help from videos like yours. I was introduced to snooker while in Nassau in 2003. It was such a shock to see coming from the sheltered USA and I was instantly mesmerized. Keep up the good work!

Hi, A viewer from Hong Kong. I’ve been try few different brand, but at last I use talisman medium tip. That’s more consistent for me . Have a nice one 😇 Dickson

Thanks for another great video! I got my first cue last October, and your previous video about Cuesoul tips got me to order some, too. I changed the original tip to exactly the same (pool SS worked down to size) and it seems to work really well for me (still an amateur). When I was making the order, I thought what the heck, let's get some of those soft snooker size tips in the same package - haven't tried them yet and probably won't need to for a long time, for reasons mentioned in the video here.

Started playing Snooker and pool since 79 and its preference ...I choose Blue Diamond 🔹️.....always softer and easier to play spin......could not get on with a Elkmaster ....just to hard and couldn't feel the white.....but I changed my grip,hold the cue lighter and its be a great swap,Elks are more harder wearing aswell,hence on most rack cues? I have been told that Alex Higgins, ,Jimmy and Ronnie all use them,enough said !!!! Great insight again chief

You've helped my pool skills alot. Thank you from Gaborone, Botswana.

people when changing a tip always put black electric tape around the ferrel and an inch or two down the cue. hes has damaged the ferral and cue with multible scrapes. also instead of a pearer flip the cue upside down after tip is glued on and cut around with your stanly knife and sand each to their own though. Good video bar this !

Back when I learned how to play some fifty years ago, the proprietor of the pool hall had a tool that would clamp onto the cue and rotate the sandpaper across the top perfectly perpendicular to the cue. He also had a similar clamp to hold the tip in place while the glue was drying... he'd leave it on a day or two, worked fine. Dunno what kind of glue, don't even know what kind of material the tip was made of... always thought it was cork but I really have no idea. I found that a nice thick soft tip gave me great command of the cue ball. Half the secret, I believe, was the cue -- a very flexible wood. Again, dunno what kind of wood it was either... well now, this turned out to be one of the most informative comments I've ever submitted on YouTube! Time for a beer... and no, I don't know how to make beer either. Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
