Hey it was a simple question which you refuse to answer, I am not trying to insult your intelligences or be disrespectful please follow suit!!!
Give us some names, I don't know who you are talking about.
Don't worry about me I am fine, all I have tried to do is put the correct information out there so that if there are any Billiard players reading this they can ask some intellegent questions when some one covers their home table.
If you had named anyone it would have been very embarrassing for you, because denial is not a river in Egypt!!:grin: So at least I have to give you some credit your smarter than that, but it also certainly proves my point!!!
Are any of the guy's listed in the USBA Player Ranking who you were talking about, here is a recent list just to help you out, you see dropping name really isn't personal information unless it isn't true.

Oh and by the way this information is not secret, so please put up or you know what to do.
Here is some information for you that may help, the 2010 National 3-Cushion Championship will be held here in Washington, State at the Tacoma Elks lodge, I am currently getting ready to order the Simonis 300 from Simonis in Chicago like I have done for a number of year's for all their events.
Here is a link that identifies where this tournament will be held.

Also you can talk with Bob Jewett here on the forum, he is on the board of Directors for the USBA, here is a link that shows this.

Call the Tacoma Elks Lodge at 1-253-272-1117 and ask for Darell Stutesman the Tournament director ask him what the requirements are, I am certain he will break it down for you.
Hope this helps you understand that there is a difference between the way people require 3-cushion tables to be done, I am surprised Glen did not tell you that.
Well John if they show up for the Nationals next month, I will ask them if they know you and how the Glued Cloth on their tables is holding up. If they don't show up I will get their contact information and contact them, then start a thread either proving or dispproving your claims.
Have a nice day!!:grin:
While your right there is nothing in the USBA rules that defines how a table must be covered or even what must be used, cloth or otherwise, there are requirements for how far the balls must travel on new cloth. I can also guaranty that the tables in the up coming 2010 National 3-Cushion Championship will not have glued cloth. You may be right scotchgrip may be great for 3-cushion tables but, I will never try it for 3-Cushion until it used for the National Championships.
Until then I will agree to disagree.
FINALLY!!! LOL. yes we will agree to disagree! But seriously craig why would anyone not experiment BEFORE a large venue. This method had come from lots of trial and error. Remember when cloths were tacked on?
I know you do!
