Could you give me the short answer and we can be done with this thread
Pretty please. :smile:

I can't wait to read more answers....LOL

I hope Mark Gregory is reading this thread as well, maybe we'll both learn something....LMAO

I've answered this very same question many times in the past.....right here in the main forum.....already:grin:

Would like to hear realkingcobra's response after he enjoys himself a bit ;-)

I'm guessing that height/profile affects how the ball is spinning in the toward/away from the rail direction.

So again....
Same Brand of Cushions.
Same Batch Number of Cushions.
Same Cushion Height.
Same Bolt of Cloth.
Same Humidity.
Same Ball Set.
Same Robot Cue.
Same Pocket Size.
Same Shelf Depth.
Same Time Zone.

*****Would they play the same?*****


No.

There's more to it than all of that.
Glenn,
I know you are enjoying this........

But if all of the variables were to be the same Except for the rails.......
Would they be even close to playing the same?

I hope he reads it too as your attitude makes me second guess the support I might receive when I get my Diamond. It's disconcerting to say the least.

I think the whole world know all about your dislike for Artemis cushion, but YOU are the only reason your table still has them on the rails....LOL

Err, yes.
They bank short.
Jay included.
A world champion banker said they bank short and GC's bank long.
You're in Pluto.

At least you admit they bank short now.
Lol
Wait, lol.


Or Diamond can use it's buying power and get cushions manufactured right.
Not a bandaid solution.

Ah, only stock Diamonds.
Great, buy a Diamond then hire you to rebuild it.
What a great deal.

Yes Joey, what ever you say Joey, you know everything Joey, you're the expert Joey, no one knows more about rails than you do Joey....you da man Joey!

One word....adjust!

The answer I like best. Seems to me that Gold Crowns should have Superspeeds and Diamonds Artemis. They play different.They're still quality pool tables. I prefer Gold Crowns most likely because they're all I ever played on.

So JoeyInCali......
If Gold Crowns bank long and Diamonds bank short......
Which Brand/model of tables bank correctly?


BTW
I love your signature line.
It let's people know how you are upfront.

***You need a larger font with a brighter color.***


Here's an example.....
