What's the hardest leather tip that holds chalk well?

[boogieman]

What's the hardest leather tip that holds chalk well? I've had enough of this soft tip. Looking for a very hard tip for a playing cue that has a good sound and holds chalk.

I love hard milk duds but thought I'd give something else a try if anyone has recommendations.

I'd recommend a Samsara J/B tip. Although not leather, the Predator tip on the Rush break cue can be chalked and played with. I'm not sure that you'd say that either has a "good" sound.

Try Zan GripHard or Boost. Both have great grip and holds chalk very well.
use the GripHard on cues I use time by time with a regular non LD maple shaft.
Works and plays very good on these type of shafts.

Have you ever tried an old Hercules 12 layer hard. they are pretty much what you described. I think I have some, they may be hard to find otherwise.

I lucked out and got a really good hard lepro. The shaft makes a pretty clunk when I hit, holds taom chalk real well
never been more happy with any tip

Then I bought a box of em and sorted out the hardest ones for myself to take to the grave with me .

A little over 5 years ago I was having an email conversation with Leonard Bludworth
about a cue I'd purchased that was one he'd made. I'd asked what he'd recommend
for a hard tip. This is his response;

Hank,
at one time way way back, I used Le-Pro's. I would soak
them in laquiar thinner over night, then place them in the
oven [pre-heated] for about 15 minutes, at 325 degrees.[
make sure there DRY].. Or you can let them dry out over a
couple days. Sand the back flat, then glue them on. They
wind up being harder than a whores heart. They play great,
but you got to have a really good stroke to keep from
mis-cueing. Also there hard as hell to shape, but keep at
it. Let me know if you need more help.blud "

Hope that helps.
