    9’ Diamond Professional Rail Issues

    Update. Sorry it’s been a busy summer. Haven’t been online much. The local diamond representative came on his own dime and replaced all the rubber on the rails. When he removed the old rubber there was signs of the rubber being installed too high. Originally they used a belt sender to...

    9’ Diamond Professional Rail Issues

    Yes I did. We talked on the phone about who installed it. He is coming to change out all the cushions in June. Nervous a bit about it but I just want the table to play properly.

    Both tables are blue label. I am told the Professional is newer and different then the 7’ pro am. Just did some of these tests and at slow speeds it appears to bank as you would expect. I am not sure how to show you what’s different about this table. I am trying to figure out a shot...

    9’ Diamond Professional Rail Issues

    I did contact diamond and they just sent my issues to the guy that I bought it from. He came over and said it’s fine. I’m in western Canada. Hoping to get someone to either help me replace the rails or find out what’s out of whack on my table. I think Washington will be a bit too far for...

    9’ Diamond Professional Rail Issues

    I bought a brand new 9’ Diamond professional just under a year ago. I’ve always thought this table wasn’t playing quite right. The ball comes off the rails flat. So banks run long and spinning into the rails eats up the spin and it comes off a bit dead. I’ve had the mechanic out numerous...

    Scratch in the top coat of a new Butt

    I just bought a brand new cue and may have been a little too excited to open it up from the plastic wrap. Thought I was pushing super light just to cut the tape that was on the butt. I was wrong. I now have a scratch almost the entire length of the cue. Its not deep but it is...

    Striving For A Perfect Stroke?

    Your correct to work on your perfect stroke. I’m also doing some stroke work on myself. I’ve always had a slight issue with my stroke and didn’t know how to fix it. Now after becoming a scratch golfer and hiring a great golf coach to get me there, I think the best way for me to improve is...

    Please Help Me Fix My STROKE

    Thanks for the replies. Already trying things and seeing some flaws. Looks like my cue tip goes to the left across the cue ball when striking it. I am not coming through straight or accurate. I make it work when things are good, but when there is a bit of pressure it quickly falls apart.

    Please Help Me Fix My STROKE

    I hope to do that someday. With kids and business I don't have a lot of time at the moment. I do a lot of practice at home on my 9' table. Hoping to stay a solid amateur player and possibly scare the odd full time player.

    Please Help Me Fix My STROKE

    I am in an area that doesn’t have instructors. Hoping there is someone that might be able to help with online videos. I do hear what your saying. I have a motion on my way to the cue ball that would make it hard to be consistent hitting the cue ball exactly where I expect too.

    Please Help Me Fix My STROKE

    Can someone recommend the right person to help me fix my stroke. I am a fairly decent player right now but have a weekness with my stroke. Most definitely at the end of the stroke. I recorded it tonight and watched it and was blown away how bad it is. I Would like someone that really...

    9’ Diamond Professional issues

    Had the diamond guy here and he thinks it’s a combination of new cloth and my basement is colder then normal. It’s 18 degrees in my basement but the table does seem colder then a pool room. Balls are a bit chilly too. I put a heater in the room and hoping it changes in a few days.
