    Starball

    Thanks for the info, appreciate knowing the quality of the original sets. I thought about using stripes and solids and that might be the only option if I can't locate an original set.

    Aramith Low end Billiard Balls

    I picked up a new set of Aramith Crowns and they look and play beautifully. The group keeps asking me how long it took me to polish them to get them so shiny. The set is our new standard set and everyone likes the way they play. They say the crowns are made the same as the Premier set, but the...

    Starball

    I noticed a post here about the game of Starball and it looked interesting. Does anyone know if the ball set for this game is still available anywhere?

    Aramith Low end Billiard Balls

    The balls we currently play with now have been with the table at our club house for the past 18 years, so I'm not sure what they are. The HOA was going to sell the table because nobody used it until we started a group that plays weekly. I understand what you are saying about lessons on...

    Aramith Low end Billiard Balls

    I thought that Aramith were rated very high amongst pros and in tournaments, but never heard of Dynasphere before and was surprised that they were rated as high as Aramith. I am not playing in any leagues or tournaments at present because, unfortunately, I don't feel that I am at a level to be...

    Aramith Low end Billiard Balls

    Thanks for all of the information, I am going to check more into the Dynasphere balls. Always thought that Aramith was the top of the line used in most tournaments, but obviously that may not be the case. A lot to learn about this game of pool, that's why I'm so glad I joined this forum.

    Was not aware of Dynasphere balls before, only Aramith, but from all of the posts, I am going to research them a bit more.

    Aramith Low end Billiard Balls

    Following up on my earlier posts about Aramith balls, I was wondering what others thought about the Continental and the Crown seta of Aramith balls. I believe the Continental is an earlier set than the Crown, but both are on the lower end of their series of balls. Even though they may be on the...

    Aramith Billiard Balls

    No box just each ball wrapped in plastic. From all the replys I may have a fake, although they play and sound amazing compared to the regular set we had been playing with. I think we are going to use these for a while to see how they hold up and eventually I can get a real set of Aramiths. I...
