What's the best way to get in touch with Bradshaw to order a set?
The game/simulator Virtual Pool includes a carom mode. The physics is pretty realistic. You may want to compare shots between your simulator and VP.... Looking forward to all feedback....
I agreeThat was crazy...I don't think anyone at the table realized that she pocketed the 8ball out of turn, not even Jasmine. I am not sure that fixing that after the next game was correct. If it was any other foul, after the next shot was played, it would not have been fixed...The more I think about it, that was the wrong thing to do. They should not have changed the score.
Funny that AI pulled direct references from information that I have posted. However, much of this information is wildly incorrect.from AI
hope this is helpful

Artemis Intercontinental K-66 and Brunswick Superspeed cushions are designed to achieve the same standard nose height of 1 7/16" (approximately 1.44 inches) for tables using 2 1/4" balls.
However, there are key differences in their profile geometry and installation requirements:
For optimal playability, ensure the cushion profile matches your table's rail specifications (K55 for Brunswick, K66 for most others) to maintain the correct 1 3/8" to 1 7/16" nose height range.
- Profile Geometry: The Artemis Intercontinental K-66 (also known as K55 profile by Artemis) measures 1 1/4" across the top and 1 5/16" high at the back glue side. In contrast, the Brunswick Superspeed is a specific K55 profile variant. Older pre-1975 Brunswick K55 cushions had a different top measurement (1 1/8"), but modern Superspeeds align with the current K55 standard.
- Mounting Height Nuance: When installed on the same sub-rail, Championship K55 cushions (a direct competitor to Superspeed) sit nearly 1/16" lower in nose height than Superspeed cushions. While Superspeeds are often praised for a "springy" feel, some users note that lower nose heights (like those from K55 profiles) can help prevent balls from "hopping" on rebound, especially as cloth wears.
- Compatibility Warning: Installing K-66 profile cushions (standard for non-Brunswick tables) on a standard Brunswick rail (designed for K55) will result in the nose being 1/16" too high, making the table play "slow as mud." Conversely, Brunswick tables typically require K55 profile cushions to maintain the correct 1 7/16" nose height without sub-rail modification.



EDITSo the nose height is slightly different between the Artemis and a Superspeed? So that must mean a K55 can vary in nose height depending on the manufacturer, I always thought that all K55's were the same. Or is it that the Artemis IC K66 is not an exact copy of a K55, and why would Artemis flop the 55 and 66 numbers around after putting "Intercontinental" before it?? Its all very confusing.![]()
No, looks like a local's summer room rate and they do it by ID:Well, do they do that by license plate? Do rentals count? Or is it just for guests at the hotel?
We may be on to something here....Joe did turn 70 last month…
