Been playing exclusively with my own balls.

In particular, the super pros.

Wtf...after about 3 hrs of playing with myself: so damn dirty.

I should bug ol rj...prob right on that.

I have a polisher, hence the '3hrs of play'.

I want the aramith tournament/ duramith set, but if it gots no carbon fiber, I am cheap. Plus, they aren't used in any of the tournaments I'd go to.

Then your balls suck
Or your polisher sucks
Do you clean then polish?
2 different things both need to be done
Do you ever vacuum the rug? With chalk that messy there's alot on the table too

Cause I can put 5hrs of play into my sets and they don't look half that bad
That's nuts, look like they haven't been cleaned in months


I don't need to vacuum my table but once every 2 weeks

Russian magic chalk baby!

Not a bad idea to wipe the CB after each rack if she’s taking chalk that easy. Simple slightly damp section of a microfiber cloth and then dry it quickly.

Holy horizontal scroll.....big balls.


Mine act the same way with the Centennials and Super pros. I have much better luck with the Cyclop set, going on three years. I only use Russkaya Magiya chalk.

Could be the picture, but looks like the measle dots are wearing a bit different from the rest of the ball.

All the best,

That is weird, how the pic shows the dots as 2 different colors. Does not appear like that in person.

But those dots can wear differently than the white, absolutely true. I have played with carom balls that settle on the spots or wiggle at the end of their roll.

On another cue ball thread, I did opine that the red dots could be a different resin than the rest of the white material on the measle ball. By your description, it could also be that the seam between the red and the white behaves a bit irregular over time.

Another reason I prefer as few marks on a cue ball as possible.

Of course, to settle this, it would take an Aramith rep to set the record straight, but that won't happen.

All the best,

Actually 6 is an even number.

"An odd number is an integer which is not a multiple DIVISIBLE of two. If it is divided by two the result is a fraction. One is the first odd positive number. The next four bigger odd numbers are three, five, seven, and nine. ... An even number is defined as a whole number that is a multiple of two."
