Heard this a few times from people shooting with sub 12mm diameter tips. I don't believe it to be true. Usually comes from people with completely busted strokes. I've played with all different size and hardness tips and the only constant variables for the amount of action I get is looseness of grip and follow through. Is there any truth to the statement? The guys I see with the best stroke and that can get crazy action usually play with standard maple 13mm shafts. Not that it matters because I'm of the opinion it's all technique and they would excel no matter what cue set up is in their hands.
