    Diamond table poll!

    Can I have another selection? I like the way Blue labels play(similar to GC4), they are not ugly but certainly not very attractive.

    GC5 Tournament Edition pocket sizes

    Hopefully you paid with a CC. I’ve had to dispute several purchases over the years when sellers refused returns.

    Several days ago I saw a GC4 for $2000.

    Taken lessons from any strong player?

    Please specify what is strong. 650, 700, 720, 750, maybe even 800. Anyone better than you?

    Woodward questionable foul European open

    Looks like a foul to me if the balls aren’t frozen

    Diamond bar boxes are trash

    I occasionally play at Paddy’s in Coeur d’Alene, their BB Diamonds play faster than the Diamonds at Legacy and the BBs here in New Orleans. I do struggle with the speed but everything else about the tables play great. I’ve played on several BB Diamonds at few other places that play a normal...

    GC4 vs GC3

    For me its 9' or bust, but I wouldn't turn away an os 8' if it kept me from having and short sticks.

    GC4 vs GC3

    The matte black is the best.

    GC4 vs GC3

    I would hold out for a GC4. I hate the raised lips on the GC1-3, that’s probably the main reason that keeps me from buying an Anniversary table.

    I’m sure I have all of those. I’ll accidentally put Rt english on most shots, then I’ll start getting LT english. I’ll raise my shoulder, lift my head. I’ll try to relax my hand but when I stroke the ball I’ll end up clenching my hand and jerk the stroke off line. I’m totally lost on trying to...

    I guess i shouldn’t feel bad, I’m over 650 at 68 years old and I’m not the player I was 20 years ago. My Fargo is dropping every year though. I didn’t have a lesson till I was in my 30’s. They didn’t have FargoRate 30 years ago that I know of but I’d guess I was probably a 700 in my 20’s and...

    1 week until SVB vs Fedor Gorst Race to 120 August 15 to 17th

    I think you’re correct about a race to 25 is probably the sweet spot. 25x3=75 would be all I could stand.

    I think for the most part you’re about 75% wrong. I’ve had some lessons in the past, a few were good and helped. For the last several years my stroke has become very inconsistent. I’ve video’d myself and analyzed my stroke. I’ve asked other good players to watch me, all to no avail. I’m shocked...

    Delta / Metal Racks damaging balls ?

    I've seen the cheaper ones loosen but I have never seen the Elite's loosen. What version did Amsterdam use?

    Frank Diaz?

    Frank Diaz just took second at Buffalo’s bar box tournament and 7-8 on the big tables. The highest Fargo any Frank Diaz is 426. Who is this guy that beat lots of very good players at Buffalo’s?

    Do you think the last guy used enough staples?

    Sorry, no excuse for a hack job. You may not care about your home table but most do.

    Delta / Metal Racks damaging balls ?

    The only way the Delta rack is going to damage the balls is throwing or dropping the balls on the edge of the rack, hard.
