Welcome! I noticed that you lean your entire body and head forward on the final stroke of each shot. No saying if keeping that still will improve your game or not...

I don't buy it either. The Duramiths stay super clean.

If it’s a tournament/competitive situation, everyone in my area just records it in slow motion and it’s easy to call good or bad.

I've seen the opposite extreme as well... beginning players double hit when the 2 balls are 6 or 7 inches apart.

I wonder if they will come with the rails pre-assembled with cloth when ordering the 3 piece slate option. Of course the 1 piece slate option will be fully assembled less the legs. The reason I ask this, is it would leave less for the local hack to screw up.

There has got to be a private table somewhere near you that you can try? I'd imagine most of the local players with a table in their house have bought a Diamond since the factory is so close. Have you asked forum members if anyone has one near you?

Funny, I was just looking at my livestream history (where I was the streamer), and my first match was with Rachel. Look at how our fargorates have changed. ha ha.

I do like the Diamond barbox a lot. The thing is, the rail bounciness is still there, but I'm pretty used to it now. However, it's a byproduct of the room's atmosphere. I play in some rooms (the one last night), and the bounce is ok. Other rooms an hour away it's like a pinball machine. It just...

I beat Rachel 13-12, 11-8, and she won the last set 7-5. She was a bit off her game, but I also played pretty good for me. I made a tiny adjustment, I had a local helping me with my game recently, and we discovered I was hitting straight in shots with a touch of left spin (when I was intending...

IDK if you heard someone reply: "is Brett still here" (he's the owner, and def much better than everyone else). ha ha.

I just bet against a 21yr old 622 playing the ghost on one last night. Race to 5 for cheap. First set he didn't get BIH. Ghost wins I think 5-1. Second set same. Maybe score was 5-2. Third set I let him move the CB 1 foot after the break. 5-3 I think. Last set double or nothing for everything. I...

Starting a couple min

They were both shiesters, what's the difference who made it?

Def backwards. Probably some idiot used chatgpt to make a picture and try to get hits on his account.

The root issue with "capped" events is they make those players near the cap a huge favorite. I'd bet strong that the players with a 595-599 rating have won significantly more tournament cash than anyone in the country outside of the legit pros. Because every weekend in every city you can spit...

That aged well! ha ha ha ha. ps, this thread was linked in a new thread. PPS, glen was saying Brunswick Billiards (including the name) would never be sold-off from Brunswick Corporation.

Didn’t the tournament get canceled before diamonds really took over?

Look at my avatar. x99 caps are plain stupid. Caps in general are also counter-productive, IMO. The only way a cap works well is to pick it out of a hat every time. Instead of caps, just let everyone play and make it handicapped for most of the tourmanmetns. Then the Open (non handicapped)...

This match is live now on Acucstats, it's the 1991 US Open, 1 year later than this thread's topic. Buddy just said a few times "these pockets are tight at 4 3/4 inches"

The 9 ball power break though, most of the action happens before any rails are hit. The wing balls or the head ball go straight in. The CB pops and draws back a foot to center table and stops. The table being a GC or a Diamond will have zero to do with any of that. All that matters is the balls...
