65 ball run

couple of questions

I like your setup Bill. Nice table and I enjoy watching your videos.

Couple of questions.

What kind of cloth are you using? looks like Simonis 760.

How big are the pockets on your table?

What video equipment are you using to record with?

How the hell are you getting a tight rack using your hands to rack the balls???

Simonis 860, new about once a year

Pockets are a tad over 4.5 (4 9/16). Pocket facings a straightened up 1 degree from standard Brunswick.

Panasonic GS90P camcorder directly wired to my laptop and captured with Windows Movie Maker.

Balls are tapped in to the cloth using a template that I purchased from a member of AZ. This is common in Europe, the rack is perfect every time, all balls are frozen.

I polish the balls in a BallStar cleaner daily and the table is cleaned every other day.

Is the template worth it. Do balls ever roll off when they are rolling slow over the rack area due to the tapped felt?
 
"Wow"

"Aww Jesus!!!"

Schmitty is rubbing off on you. Or maybe it is just 14.1 that makes people talk to themselves a lot.

LOL. Nice run. I dig the music too.

Schmidty and I were just talking about this, we think the balls spread a little better when they are not tapped in as long as the rack is tight. On the next recover I'm not going to tap them in.

The tapped in balls is well worth it if you are playing 9 and 10 ball most of the time.

No real problem about the balls rolling over the dimples at slow speeds.

At last, another convert to 60's music. I got Schmidty hooked two years ago. Some of us just never grow up...

Kenny Schuman hates it, I think he turns the sound off when hes watching. LOL
 
Good run

Ran 65 last night, not textbook, 2nd rack was a jigsaw puzzle.

I had to break it down into 2 parts as AZBTV has now limited its videos to 50MB.

Good run & great looking room. I really like that light blue 860. I want to change my table over to it but I just have not had the time.
Anyways, thanks for sharing, good video.
 
Yeah I was planning on getting a Delta 13 Rack, with new super aramith pros. So I dont think I will tap the balls in when I get my table. Also i do play alot of 9 and 10 ball, they are my strongest games. I am working on straight pool when I can. My high run is 42 right now on an 8 foot table.
