I have been using Magic chalk for awhile and it seems that my table get so dirty, I dont chalk every shot, is this a dirty chalk?
Dr Dave's most interesting info on Magic Chalk is on his website where he was impressed in how Magic Chalk prevented miscues. This is just a couple snippets from that webpage:
Concerning the “number of hits until miscue,” Silver Cup was very similar to Master (flag and pre-flag) and Lava. However, the Magic Chalk was off the charts!!! That stuff really remains effective on the tip for a long time!
andTo me, here’s the bottom line: If you chalk before every shot, the type of chalk doesn’t seem to make much difference. However, if you forget to chalk, or don’t like to chalk often, or don’t chalk effectively, and if you miscue often, then you might prefer one of the chalks that remains effective on the tip longer. Magic Chalk still seems to be the best in this category (with Kamui 2nd best, and Blue Diamond also good).
