I ask because I contacted Sue Lipkins about getting on her waiting list and briefly talked with her about what I would like out of a bow. Not that I would ask her to put a silver tip on my ordered bow, as I have never played/seen any of her sticks with one, and frankly I don't really want one. I'm just curious about what they contribute to a bow.
P.S. The bow I own now is already tip heavy, and I wouldn't dream of altering that to make it worse. LOL.
