    Amazing video Chris, I actually am in the market for a new tip for my break cue. I've been thinking about switching out my phenolic tip for a bit of time. Interestingly enough I've had two tips on my mind The Horo Black and the Taim 2.0.
    Thanks for the great video it definitely looks like you get a bit more action out of it.

    the taom 2.0 and the bullet proof tips are amazing. they both really get some hop on the cue ball. the taom is a little harder than the bullet proof and the bullet proof gets a little better spin. can't go wrong with either one. both are great for breaks and jump cues. the bullet proof actually makes a good playing tip as well

    • @gunslingersymphony5015
      @gunslingersymphony5015 Год назад

      I just got into the sport, and I'm operating on a budget, but I picked up one of those bulletproof break tips for when I needed it, eventually. The other day, my buddy dropped my break cue, and the tip popped off, giving me an excuse to put it on early. After reading your comment, I'm even more excited to try it out than I already was. The only issue I have with it is that I have to assume that if they didn't send a fabric patch, a silicone patch, and a sticker with it they could have charged me a little less. 😆

    How do you know how much you are cutting from the tip, from left to right, so that it will not go through the ferrule? Does it have some sort of stopper that you set from the thickness of the ferrule. Hope my question makes sense.

    Hi Chris, do you think it's worth it replace the current phenolic tip on my Avid Surge I recently bought to the Toam 2.0 Tip, I have an extra one laying around and I'd lowkey have a budget cynergy breach, but I want to know your opinion as well, you probably won't respond since this comment is late, but I want to know from you! I'm an Skill level 4 who plays on nine footers in CPA (Canadian APA) I already have a decent break with a good spread, had a few B&R's and practice and ran the table once on an opponents dry break, do you feel like this tip could help me improve my breaks with an already good spread, control and finding easier pots after the break?

    • @LilChrisPoolPlayer
      @LilChrisPoolPlayer  19 дней назад

      I wouldn't say that a break tip isn't going to make that much of a different as to "improving your breaks" versus another break tip. The difference is apparent if your break cue has a shooting tip on it, then there will be a difference (improvement) in your breaks and the tip will last much longer.

    It did not appear to be a failure of the original tip but rather a failure of the glue used to install it. It seems odd to me that there was no residual glue left on the tip or the cue after the tip fell off.

    • @LilChrisPoolPlayer
      @LilChrisPoolPlayer  Год назад

      The original tip lasted 7 years, so I don't the failure was the glue. It was just time for it to happen.

    • @mattevans1643
      @mattevans1643 4 месяца назад

      He said it was 7 years, that's pretty good life from a tip. At that age you wouldn't expect any glue to be left. It's like a car part. When you finally rplace it after 5-10 years depending on what it is, you're surprised how it's even still there.

      I broke with my playing cue for 2 years. It had an everest tip on it, medium/hard so the tip was okay. It broke very well once i learned to properly break. Then someone brought in some cheap break cue with a proper tip on it, and i never used my playing cue again. 9/10 times a bad break is because of a bad rack. The other 1/10 is because of a miscue.

      Sometimes it is in the tip. I will break with my Playing cue sometimes, because it has a medium hard tip on it. I would not break with my other shaft because it has a kamui black soft on it. The tip 100% matters. But now I have a break cue, so what evs. But putting a Taom tip on it is definitely in the cards, cause it's not a top of the line cue. It's just a run of the mill cue.
