"Skittles" colored ball sets (ala cyclop)

while those are the same font, the colors are not even close to similar.

I’ve been looking too. Unfortunately there aren’t many options other than buying an old stock set of cyclops balls on eBay or Facebook marketplace. Aramith doesn’t make those colors and the closest dynaspheres set is the Tungsten set, but the 6 and 14 are gray instead of lime green. Dynaspheres did make a set called Carbon with the skittle colors, however it was a lower-grade resin and has since been discontinued. I talked to a dynasphere rep at the expo last weekend and they don’t have any new skittles sets coming out any time soon..

Taking the Pocket Out of Aiming

The idiom "doesn't hold a candle to" means that someone or something is far inferior in skill, quality, or ability compared to another, implying they are not even competent enough for the most basic, subordinate tasks.

Thanks - that part I knew.

The phrase originated in the pre-electricity era when apprentices or assistants were tasked with holding candles to illuminate the work of skilled craftsmen; if a person "couldn't hold a candle" to their master, it signified they were unfit even for this menial role.

That's what I was asking about - interesting. Thanks again.

Do I really NEED a $10k table?

We've had our Diamond table for 5 or 6 yrs now and wife and I were just talking about it the other day about how much enjoyment we have gotten with our table. We both shoot, I'm on two leagues, one with the wife, and one without. We probably average about a half hr ea of practice on the table a day. We also have friends over to shoot and my wifes best friend is one of them.
Anyway what we were talking about the other day was how our table was one of the best investments we have ever made, and how that table will last us the rest of our lives. It really is cheap when you figure how long it should last you, and if you ever decide to sell it, because of inflation you can probably get most of your investment back. We were very fortunate in that when we got our table, about 2 or 3 months later Diamond had a huge price increase in their professional table line.View attachment 897799

Yapp’s Controversial Tournament-Winning Shot in the 8-Ball World Championship … Was it a Foul?

Scratch85
This may have been mentioned earlier in the thread but I haven’t seen it. It’s obvious the general public and even the pool playing public, have a difficult time conceding to the good hit/bad hit criteria. Predator/WPA and MR are trying to appeal to the (uninformed) masses. Maybe they have decided, if it’s not an obvious foul, don’t call it and let the opponent or the shooter challenge the call. Then they go to replay and conversation, to make certain they get it right. Casual fans don’t want to watch referees, in any sport, looking at replays. It isn’t casual fan friendly and pool needs numbers.
