I recommend you to read about cue tips. This is an exact point of impact . Having a good cue tip is crucial for decent сueing.

Here is some short tables for begginers, just to understand the difference.
When you look at the number of pool cue tips there are available today, it can be extremely overwhelming. That's why I've created this Cue Tip Tables. I hope it would help people. Anyway:
>You will just have to experiment & find what works best for you.


The methodology we use for testing tip density is as follows:

  • Use a standard Shore A Durometer (0-100 hardness scale)
  • 1Kg (2.2 lbs) of pressure
  • Measure the density of three tips per brand
  • Take the average of the three measurements to determine a density rating

    Soft tips

  • more cue ball spin
  • more maintenance
  • frequent replacement

    Tip Brand | Tip Size | Hardness
    --------|:--------:|---------:
    Kamui Black (Super Soft)| 14mm | 67.5
    Elk Master | 10mm-14mm | 66.8
    Moori soft | 14mm | 72.8

    Medium tips

  • balance between cue ball control and consistency
  • usually preinstalled by manufacturers as the standard tip
  • plays consistently with less maintenance


    Tip Brand | Tip Size | Hardness

    Fuji (Medium)| 13mm | 78.5

    Kamui Black (Medium) | 14mm | 78.5
