I hate rubber pockets and have always had an eye on these leather drop pockets for my new GCI.

Don't care what the color is.

Would like to know experiences with these pockets... do they fit well... are they superior or inferior for home use compared to the rubber pockets?

Thanks!
 
My experience with these,which is isn't much,wasn't that great. I believe there was a set on the 10' Centennial at CJ's. If that table is still there,you might want to check it out.
 
there a good idea but aren't made to fit right, over time they lift up on the lip and really are a problem. plus they need to be nailed in, plus the lip is high to shoot over. My friend lined his GC rubber pockets with leather and they were very nice and quiet.

IMO pass
