    BLUDWORTH vs DIAMOND vs BALLSTAR BALL CLEANERS

    All just different flavors of the same icecream. I recently sold my crockpot style Ballstar. I had a set of dingy Centennials I sold with it that hadn't been cleaned in years and were put up dirty. In one cycle they were cleaned to a mirror finish. It was truly impressive. I could never achieve...

    "Snooker is *torture* at all skill levels . . . pool is *fun* at all skill levels."

    Kind of makes you wonder if getting people to tune in is about more than just watching 2 dudes knock balls in holes?

    Gold Crown VI

    Sorry, it was a Tourney Edition. Cloth felt like 860 but cannot confirm 100%. Definitely not 760 as I remember that feel very well.

    Gold Crown VI

    I've played a few hours on the GC VI at archers new place. They play well, definitely and look good. I found the professional to play very tight with absolutely 0 chance of the ball dropping with any rail contact. The shelf felt very deep, even more so than a diamond but maybe that's just me. I...

    Johnny Archer's New Room

    No inside smoking is a pretty big deal. Along with good food it will definitely attract the date night crowd that way. I may even drag my asthmatic wife out one day.

    Archer's Place, Marietta Ga...??

    Rome is a very unique town. We’re 25 minutes from any interstate and there isn’t much local shopping or young people entertainment. We have 3 colleges. I’ve lived in several areas and nowhere is like here. People here drive 30-60 minutes on the regular to find something to buy or do. It may be...

    Some more advertising in Rome when the budget allows, specifically targeting pool players would go a long way. The bowling alley in east Rome is literally the only place in town with tables. They are valleys in ok shape. At least 10 tables and always a wait in the evenings. There are 98,000...

    This is correct. Big tables are also $7/hr. The room is overall very nice and far from a ‘joint.’ Very clean, new and I didn’t see anyone smoking, but not sure if it’s actually smoke free. Both Johnny and Rodney were very friendly. The GC6s were beautiful. The ball return is almost silent...

    Can anyone confirm if they’re open this evening. Planning on heading that way in a couple hours. I tried calling the number but it went to voicemail.

    Archer's Place, Marietta Ga...??

    I deal with a lot of the public daily in my line of work. I'll do my best to spread the good word. I'd REALLY like to see this place take off. I grew up in Raleigh, NC in the 90s and there were successful pool rooms everywhere. I easily had 6 within 20 minutes from my house. Different time for...

    I'm 30 minutes away and looking forward to patronizing the establishment. We could really use a decent place around here that's not an hour drive.

    I hope it does open soon. I'm 30 minutes away and would be there frequently. I grew up in Raleigh and the pool scenes are really different.

    Jack Madden likes to use curly/tiger maple for shafts but I've not seen a cue like this from him.
