Billiard Cue Tips and Tip Size

Tip size typically dictates the style of cue. A 10mm tip is used on snooker cues. An 11mm tip is used primarily on modified snooker cues. Where a 12.5mm tip is used for pool cues.

The Elk Master tip is a chromed, tanned elk hide tip with a compression factor, ideal as a technical complement to the non-compressing brass ferrule.

The Le Pro Tip is an oak-tanned, water buffalo hide tip with great chalk and shape holding characteristics.

I prefer using a 12.5mm tip for pool cues because it offers a good balance of control and power.

The Elk Master tip sounds interesting with its compression factor, but I’m a fan of the Le Pro Tip for its durability and how well it holds chalk. It really helps with consistency during long games.
