They aren't so bad after the tips come off, but I also like the sound of worn down wood tips.
I do too. It's softer and a little less defined. That suits me personally, and I imagine that versatile professionals find a use for that sound as part of their palette, along with plastic tips etc.
Larry, the plastic tips sound like trouble for you. Maybe go back to wood and tolerate a little more tip wear?
