I used to go along with soft tips simply bc it's what everyone said was best. Then I actually tried shooting with a hard and can't see myself going back. The feel may take getting used to at first but I get better accuracy, energy transfer, and can actually play long draw shots without them turning into stop shots. I can also use it to jump if needed. Also, Dave Alciatore made a video that disproves the common misperception of a soft tip getting better English, there is actually no difference.
Absolutely there is no difference in english, just easier to apply with a softer tip. But once you learn how to play with your tip it makes no difference. The only time it matters is the first few times you play with it and aren't used to it.
soft is great and if you have the money soft or supersoft might be your go to but if you still want to easily hit spins but dont have the money to replace the tip often,medium is your choice hard is only good if you like to play powerful and good speed shots,but for real other than it being super low maintenance there is no other reason to buy hard tho
