Do pros use hard or soft cue tips?
What cue tip shape do pros use?
Cue tips with a large diameter (about 13 mm) are frequently recommended for newer players. The cue tip's increased surface area may help you land even the most challenging strokes. You can use smaller cue tips and practice on your side spin as your pool skills improve.

Should a pool cue tip be hard?
A harder tip has a slightly better hit efficiency (energy transfer) than a softer tip. This will result in slightly more CB speed for a given stroke speed. This can provide a slight advantage for draw shots, where, where slightly more CB speed will retain slightly more backspin on the way to the OB.

How long does a snooker cue tip last?
As for the tip, well it really depends on how much you are playing. If you are playing every day you might change the tip every three or four weeks but if there is a gap it could last longer.

Which is better nickel or dime cue tip?
Predator research has clearly shown that a dime radius (or shape of a dime) will produce 5 percent to 10 percent less cue ball deflection than the more commonly used nickel shape. The cue ball deflection is reduced because the dime radius centralizes the hit to the center, or strong part, of the shaft.
