This is what I currently have on my Gold Crown IV. The table is in the corner of the basement. I guess you could say that's my man cave down there but I don't spend much time down there except in the winter time when I am on my amateur radio station.

Is that a 3-light with fluorescent bulbs from 1999?

Why you doing this to your GC and Diamond tables

Here are the brackets...

Forward foot.... work.

Well, since Alex says this I suppose I should just change how I address a shot.
Really?

I purchased a Delta-13 elite years ago after they first came out and have never looked back. It wasn't cheap, but it still gives a tight rack after years of use and it is going to outlive me. People complained about how loud they were, but most people that own one know how to mitigate the noise with a tactical placement of the fingers while racking. Let me see...no noise or a tight rack...which would I rather have???

My problem with getting tight racks anywhere is usually the fault of the worn racking area.

How loud they were......because a solid break is nearly noise free,right?

All listed if you go to the first link in post 1 (the Alison Chang site)

i always kinda felt like staying down on the ball too long is just giving yourself more time to lose your concentration.

assuming you have a good PSR, timing, and mechanics in general, what more is there reaaaaaallly to think about once you get down? all the little variables of the equation do their little dance in my head and then when its time to go its time to go, assuming my concentration isnt wandering.

a lot of the lower level players i encounter could really stand to do some of that thinking before they get down.

I'm in the same boat. Chronic over thinker at the table. I can never shut it down and it frustrates the crap out of me. Almost always think negative thoughts, which I know is terrible. Not much helps. Go with Black Balls suggestion.

State champ full of negtive thoughts, eh? That's somehow more impressive

Agreed. That's why I included a clip from him in the main pool-snooker comparison video:
