What hardness of cue tip should I use?
They will play more consistently, last longer and require less maintenance. Medium tips are usually the way to go for most pool players because they offer a combination of cue ball control and consistency. Most medium tips will get you plenty of spin but do not get as misshaped or wear out as fast as the softer tips.
How do I know what size tip for my cue?
It should always be the same diameter as your shaft – no smaller. A smaller tip will give you more control over spin, but may also cause more miscues. A larger tip will give you less spin control, but a more powerful, consistent shot. With American cues, the standard size is usually around 12 or 13mm.
Should a cue tip be round or flat?
rounded
Although new tips are flat when they come from the manufacturer, they should be rounded off at the top when installed. An improperly-shaped tip will result in more miscues, especially when trying to hit the cue ball off-center for position play.

How often should you change your cue tip?
When your cue’s leather tip wears down to the thickness of a dime it’s time to replace the tip. If you continue to use a cue stick that has a worn-down tip you increase your chances of miscuing. A miscue is when your cue tip slips off the cueball and digs into the billiard cloth or felt as it’s called.
