    A Couple Of Diamond Professional Observations

    A couple of things I have noticed about this Diamond Professional table now that I've had it for over three months. First, balls go in on the break. I am breaking with the 1B on the spot and I am placing the CB just off the rail on the right side about 2-3 inches. The right side facing the...

    Chalk - Is This A Foul?

    Let's say you are breaking a rack of 9-Ball. And that there is a piece of chalk sitting on the edge of the cushion. Right on the very edge. So you break and a ball knocks the piece of chalk off the table onto the floor. Since you were the breaker and a ball hit the piece of chalk on your...

    Earl Strickland - Houston, TX

    I was reading a Billiards Digest magazine from back in 2017 and it had a list of Players of the Year for both men and women. Back years ago when Earl was POTY it said he was from Houston, TX. I don't recall Earl ever living in Houston. Anybody recall that or can shed any light here? r/DCP

    Questions About This Tip & Joint

    Okay, I just purchased a new Cuetec Cynergy Nine Ball cue and I have a couple of questions. First, is the tip shown an Elkmaster tip? Second, are the joints the same? The middle pic is the new Cynergy joint and the pic on the far right is from my old Cuetec Starlight Earl Strickland cue...

    Cuetec Cynergy Nineball Series Cues

    Has anybody ever owned one of these? Or shot with one of these? I am thinking about buying one. It's my understanding that Cuetec Cues are way better than what they used to be 30 years ago. Anybody? r/DCP

    This Keeps Happening

    https://pad.chalkysticks.com/c908e20.png I use the Outsville template for breaking racks of 9B. And as you all know I have been breaking those racks on my new Diamond Professional. The issue is that I usually end up with about four balls all close together as shown in the diagram. In this...

    More Early Impressions Of The Diamond Professional

    I've also noticed three more things with regards to the new Diamond Professional. 1) The side pockets play tough. I've hit some shots into the side pockets facings and they have bounced out. Shots that I though would go in. Is this typical of Diamond tables? 2) The table plays faster than my...

    This Is What I'm Talking About

    I keep talking about having a runnable rack. Tonight I went back over to the garage apartment to see if the new light bulbs would make things better and brighter. Was a small improvement. Anyway, I broke about a dozen racks and never had a chance. Then finally I got this spread and ran out...

    Shoes

    Anybody have special shoes you wear when you play? My Diamond Professional is in my upstairs garage apartment and it's got that vinyl plank flooring. If I have to lean a little bit to reach a shot my feet will, at times, slip a little. Just wondering if anyone uses special shoes for various...

    Early Impressions Of The Diamond Professional

    I've had the new table one month now. And so far I have noticed three things about this new Diamond Professional. First, sad to say, the break still doesn't seem to be working for me. Similar results to the Gold Crown IV. Not sure what to do about this dilemma. Second, those that said I...

    Jack Zimmerman

    Anybody here ever have Jack Zimmerman work on their tables? I've heard nothing but good things about him. Outstanding things really. He lives over around the east edge of Indiana. not too far from the Ohio border. Before the cold weather hits I might try and coax him into coming down and...

    Played One Pocket Today

    A buddy of mine that's a pretty good player came over today. We played some 9-Ball and then he sort of introduced me to One Pocket. Seems like an interesting game, alot of strategy involved. Once we got down to the last 3-4 balls it took a while to finish off that rack. Oh, and before anyone...

    Diamond Professional - One Improvement

    After having this Diamond Professional for several days now there is one thing that I think would improve the table. Instead of the nylon pockets if it had those rubber type pockets that the Gold Crown IV has that would be awesome. The sound of the balls falling into those rubber pockets just...

    Table Light Recommendations

    Ok, so, now that I have my new Diamond Professional I've come to the conclusion that the light above it pretty much isn't going to get the job done. There are a couple of pics attached. As I've said before, it's a cheap 5-bulb light from Lowes. I don't want to spend a ton of $$$ on a light so...
