Leather to Irish linen wrap

Depends on how thick the leather was, or how deep the channel is now. Most linen is about .025" thick, compared to leather that can be .030" and thicker. I have used 5 minute epoxy to coat the whole channel and then re-cut the channel to the proper depth, and have had to use wood veneer applied like a leather wrap, then sand to the proper depth....it really depends.

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

Can't, DrDave. I live in DC. The Diamonds I played on were in Massachusetts, Tennessee and North Carolina when I was traveling.

Next time I play on a Diamond I'll try to record a video. Oddly, not many Diamond 9-footers in the DC area, unless I want to drive further into Virginia or Maryland. All the places near where I live have Gold Crowns or Valleys.

You are making me think I am living in an alternate universe!

Sounds good (except for the "alternate universe" part). Thanks.

I find the Predator scheduling quite odd. You would think they want to finish on a weekend like the WNT. Instead, the majority of Predator's events end midweek from Monday to Thursday. Only a few end on a Sunday.

Wish there was more uniformity to scheduling. The lack thereof further compresses an already tight calendar.

seems a likely reason. the pinoys playing are players with a higher WPA participation last year than chua
Chua is sixth in WPA points among Pinoys. Two Filipinos, Lee Van Corteza and Joven Bustemante, are behind him but got invites.

He might not have been invited, but he could also have turned an invitation down. Seems like Chua is cutting back on travel this year.

He still has young kids, mind you, and he’s building his own business. Just opened a new pool hall and he is set to open “Bad Koi Pro Shop to sell gear much like the Ko brothers and Fedor Gorst.

Chua has only played in three events this year, all in Asia. He accumulated 27,000 WNT points in those three events. That’s easily the most by any Asian player in this calendar year.

I doubt he will show up at the UK Open. I imagine he’ll play in the WPC, but he’s had sporadic attendance over the years at the US Open. Sure hope he doesn’t scale way back - he’s so much fun to watch!

Is Pia Filler #1???

She plays very strong....the American females are barely B+ players.

Against the best Asian players, she is not in the top 5. Rankings are based on attending and getting points.
Jasmin Ouschan (one of the best female players in the world) has lost multiple times to Sofia Mast who is only 18. Between her and Savannah Easton we have rising talent for sure.
