HALF LAYER CUE CHIP

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the bonded surface of the ball-hitting portion, so as to reduce directional displacement of a hit ball in a laminated tap which is made of leather and has a multilayer structure of three layers or more. SOLUTION: The tap is attached to a billiard cue, of which base portion with the laminated leather has a multilayer structure of two layers or more of the thin leather, for use. While roundness R is made on the portion to hit the ball for use, a thick leather is used on the ball-hitting portion so that the bonded surface may not appear. The bonded portion between the leathers is not exposed even when the thick cowhide or the like is arranged on the ball-hitting portion and the ball-hitting portion is finished to be round. Therefore, for the catching of the ball, the good part of one sheet of leather is reproduced. In addition, the base portion consisting of the lamination of thin leathers has a structure which jointly has an effect to suppress the displacement in the advancing direction of the cue ball to the minimum.
