You never know much about the worth of any table until you've moved them and set them up several times. I have four Diamond Red Labels all 20 plus years old and moved them several times and they play great. Additionally, I have 2 GC 2's that are at least 65 years old and they play great. As a side note the case hardened bolts and plates on the GCs are still in perfect condition. My tables are used by the general public all day every day logging lotsa miles. Indestructible. So, Rasson may end up being the cats meow but until they log some mileage they'ed be a work in progress at best IMO.

As for Hennessee’s recent “improvement,” I followed Hennessee’s Derby City play up close, literally, for several years. I became fascinated by how unlucky he was in crucial moments. I mean TRAGICALLY unlucky. At decisive moments! I thought to myself, “If this dude ever gets a decent roll, watch out!” Looks as if the awful rolls may have stopped.

Fargo rating? Number of WNT appearances? Popularity? Team Spirit? Fuggedaboudit! For winning the Mosconi Cup, you need pool players with a high John Rocker Quotient. Think Jason Shaw, but not so reserved.

Moving to Prescott, AZ and considering a new Rasson OX 9' table. But was also considering having a high quality wrap installer cover the base and side skirts with wood look material (Rvinyl or similar). Can anyone tell me whether the Rasson logos and etc are painted, decals, or if unknown, otherwise raised? A fingertip can usually sense that thickness... Aside from that, would also like to know name(s) of reputable installer(s) in the Phoenix-to-Prescott or Flagstaff areas. Thanks

I can check our Rasson OX on club. I go there tomorrow.

Calm down, it was just to try it out. It hits great and plays fine. It is a uniloc joint but the only issue is it does not fit my BK Rush, but it fits an old J. Peschaur?

Anyone know how that could be? And also how I can fix it? (maybe an extension might work?)

TIA

I'm not judging considering products are now mainly outsourced from China. even more crazier is that companies are getting their supply from same chinese manufacturers and just stamp their logo in them after to sell at a marked up price. Same product, different brand. Of course, there are quality variance.

I don't know what radius you have on your tip but I was using a dime radius for a long time,I was miscuing and couldn't go very low on the cueball, thought the Bulletproof Recoil tip was the problem, followed Dr Dave's advice and reshaped it to a nickel radius and it was like night and day, just changed my teammates to a nickel the other night and got the same result with a different tip. I'm using a 12.0 mm shaft my friend's is a 12.5mm
