    Corner pocket shelf

    If you don’t like what someone has to say why comment simply pass it by but that’s to easy. I would like to see your performance on this table. Like I said other tables just like this one do not play as tough as this one.

    Corner pocket shelf

    Rasson table at the World Pool Masters. Josh makes a red ball that touches point that would absolutely not go on my table. In my opinion Diamond should take a look at their shelf depth.

    Corner pocket shelf

    Here’s something that comes to my mind. How many pros are buying a Diamond table that plays as tough as mine does? They make 3,500 plus tables a year. Are most tables going to pros that can shoot dead straight and apply lots of English on a long shot and still pocket the ball or are most sold to...

    Corner pocket shelf

    I’ve got a dehumidifier set at 45. Balls stay clean. I’ve not done facings with silicone. I don’t know what you mean there. Do you mean wipe it on to cloth in pocket facings?

    The ball will set in even deeper as only about 1/4 is over edge.

    Corner pocket shelf

    I agree to what most think without playing on this particular table you really don’t know for sure. I’ve played on others just like mine that does not play like this one. Those table owners agree too that mine doesn’t play like theirs. I watch a lot of pool and I see balls going in constantly...

    Corner pocket shelf

    Yes they are 4 1/2” pockets. I had an 8 ft Diamond with 4 1/2” pro cut pockets. The shelf was about 1 1/4” rather than the 2” I have now. It played the way a table should imo. I’ve talked to other 9 ft. Diamond pro am owners with supposedly same specs. They say theirs don’t play so badly as...

    Corner pocket shelf

    What is the correct shelf depth for corner pockets of most pool tables? Mine is a 9 ft Diamond pro am. It has 2” depth. And I measured it correctly! Plays pretty bad imo. Of coarse I’m old and will never play pro status but would still like for a ball to go when it’s hit pretty good but they won’t.

    Diamond Pool Tables - Degree of Difficulty

    I don’t like them either. Play like garbage! I paid a lot of money for a garbage playing table. I think it mainly the extremely deep pocket shelves.

    Diamond Pool Tables - Degree of Difficulty

    My new 9 foot Diamond has 4 1/2” pockets but shelf will completely hide a ball with lots of room to spare. I’m 72 and hate this table. Plays like crap. It does roll and banks good. You can’t touch a rail or it will spit ball back out even though it went in. I’m thinking of grinding an inch or so...

    Diamond table slate removal

    My new Diamond is ridiculous loud too. They should do better for the price they charge. I cut a thin nap carpet to fit and slipped it in ball slot at back. Helped a lot.
