Southwest and Bluegrass as the ones that come to mind for me regarding primarily brass pin usage.

Would absolutely do it.

I am sorry for striding off topic, as my reply is not really about pool ball collecting. But as I read the last messages here, I thought I might share this in here anyway.

I am researching games now for over 2 years, and started to make a website for them. It currently holds over 520 games, which I grouped then into different groups. I show the table setup for the balls, give a brief description, and try to link all ressources I have (like websites, full rules, images of the balls).



This is not online so far, and nobody except me and my girlfriend saw it so far. But as it got quite extensive already, I was thinking about sharing it with the world. I just don't want to have legal problems with some of the rules or images I used for it. Some of it might be still copyrighted or IP infringement. So I have to carefully check everything. And I am not even sure, if there is big demand for this anyway, except maybe a few nerds within the community...

And yes, I know I got the Bobble Ball rules a bit wrong there. At least I don't show anything which I might not be allowed to in here
As mentioned, it is still under development, but the big bulk of the core is ready.

Say what? All cushions for a Pro 8' and a 9' table are 48" long. I think someone is telling you a story if they are saying Artemis are the only cushions that will fit.

Love to see a pic of your table! It's not often you see a true Gold Crown II.

Even if u were getting the cushions pretty much for free would u do the super speed still?

Bump

Interesting look. From a sales point, no salesman would cut anything so fair. I imagine any such discussion would have the bet moving skyward over one tenth of that spot.

Shannon Daulton 30 yr ago or so, at the PCA event/CJ's place.... would give Amarillo Slim I think it was 13-4 or 13-3 and play him one pocket $300 a rack.
If he wants donations, that's that.
Doesn't seem like something a player of his caliber would do $100 sets even, feels like sponsor talk.
I think he'd like to play a good player/spot em and make em work.

Still looking.

i replaced my Monarch Superspeeds on my GCI with Artemis, had the subrails done too, if I didnt tighten up the pockets I would have kept the Monarchs on it, they were still good. If I were doing my table right now I think I would put Superspeeds on it, I don't believe there is any advantage to Artemis, its just what everyone was using when I did my table. Monkey see monkey do.

I never measured but I would say my p3 definitely feels thinner then my sp or roadlines.

I think the exact opposite. I believe my P3 is slightly thicker than my SP. Now I got to measure.

This was one of the 8 pointers from a while ago, not sure it was in the Roadline model so you may want to check.

Thanks, this one is an 8 pointer too.
