Testing Kicks and Banks on Diamond Brand Tables, and How to Adjust Aiming

D'oh! I forgot about complex physics. Let's see.......set up a shot with a known aiming flaw.....apply a correction that sure looks like it eliminates the flaw....apply a perfect stroke... ball goes in....hypothesis of short rebound is.....confirmed?!

With the data you provided, the mysterious multitude of complex physics forces must cancel, because the ball went in when placed on appropriate geometric course. Then the question becomes whether or not this is applicable over all incident angles (I doubt it is), and at what speeds (certainly will not be). At this time, that remains a mystery, but hopefully someone with a Diamond table will crank this out and compare it to a Gold Crown.
Didn't you see where he shot the same shot on a bunch of other tables (that were all very similar results), and then when done on Diamond tables, the balls went noticeably shorter (more acute)?
