I am having a hard time finding info on the new Gold Crown VII. On the Brunswick Billiards website it only shows the Gold Crown VI. Anybody know where I can get more info regarding the Gold Crown VII?

And yes, I know what everyone is thinking. I already have the Gold Crown IV and also have a Diamond Professional on order. Why are you already thinking about a Gold Crown VII? Well, because that might be the long range plan. One of these days, a year or two down the road, I might decide to sell either the GCIV or the Diamond Professional and then buy a new Gold Crown VII. And who knows, by then it might be time for the Gold Crown VIII.

Just have to see how all of this plays out. It's always nice to make long range plans though. And I am having a hard time making those long range plans since I can't find much info on the new Gold Crown VII.

Can’t really tell nothing from these bad photos.
I doubt that these are veneers, can’t see a seam but then again, can’t tell much from these photos.
There are two methods for points - inlays and splice, if these terms are not used in a cue description then it usually means they want to keep it vague to hide the truth.

And you should know that there decals that look like wood

Please forgive my shit camera. Wish I had a better camera. So, does anything here look real, or again, do you think these are Decals? Lol.

Notice the uneven points, and uneven veneers? Would decal / graphics / overlays look like that?

A few details:

Do you have a small "start of inning" increment on the clock, as in some chess formats?

If a player's time runs out, does the other player take over the table immediately, and does he take the balls in position?

If the catch-up player is shooting alone, does he ever shoot before the balls stop moving to break up clusters, or intentionally shoot some other foul shot to improve the layout?

The lag/flip determines the first break in our alternating break format. As soon as the winner of the lag/flip is determined, the clock starts. There is no start of inning increment. One of the players is always on the clock. It is refreshing to see how quickly the balls are racked and broken off with this process. No cell phones used, no smoke breaks, just playing pool!

Once a players time expires, the opposing player's clock starts and that player continues to shoot, intentional foul shot or legal shot until the nine ball is legally pocketed. That player continues to rack and break the balls until he/she either runs out of time and loses because he/she is behind in wins, ties the match and runs out of time or wins more racks than his opponent in which case he/she wins the match. We had a couple players win their match over a player out of time with this process. As I indicated in my original post, the tie is broken with a one game playoff.
