Hello to everyone,

I wanted to share a few photos of my crew and myself working on the 9' Gold Crown III that will be played on at the Lucasi Hybrid Texas Open 9 Ball Championship held at Skinny Bob's Billiards in Round Rock, Texas Sept. 3-6 2010. For all those players looking to play and or have played in this prestigious and historical tournaments (37 years), there is a treat for ya'll this year. All the Tables have been re-covered with 860 Simonis HR cloth and the pockets have been shimmed. These tables have been through a lot over the years but, with a little TLC and more than a few hours of pain and sweat we feel these tables have never played better. Now I'll let ya be the judge of that. So tell all your friends who were thinking about playing to get their "BUTTS" :grin: down here and experience one of the most exciting, traditional, and historical tournaments we've had the pleasure of calling our own "Texas Open 9 Ball Championship". With the awesome new owners, Rich & John, the great staff, and the newly re-furbished tables this is guaranteed to be another memorable Labor day weekend event. I Look forward to seeing everyone there and meeting more members of our Billiard Community from across the great state of Texas and beyond. God Bless everyone! and God Bless America! :ok:

David,

Thank You for your kind words, we really are excited and can't wait to see all of the familiar faces from every year. And of course the new faces that will be part of a fun filled Labor Day weekend with some great 9 Ball competition. Will you be able to make it out?

I'm not ready but I'll be there. First time and I'm sure it'll be great. What size are the pockets?

before they recovered the tables the pockets were the size of the State! I sure hope they tightened them up a little.

Before we started the work on these tables, the pockets were almost 2.5 balls worth
(5 in+). Now you'll be looking at barely 2 balls (4.5 in) getting through, if at all. Tight pro pocket measurements would have been nice but we had a specific request we had to follow. Non the less I'm happy to have been given the opportunity to give the Love these tables have been needing for a long time. Look forward to meeting and seeing you at Skinny Bob's. I'm sure you'll be more ready then you think :wink:

Lol! Your right the pockets were as big as our great state. Now If your coming down and playing I believe you'll be very happy compared to years before. I'd love to meet ya and get your feedback. I can't wait, this is gonna be an awesome event. Always enjoy watching the talent from all over that come down and compete. See you soon Bud.

Sounds good. IMHO tighter is better. Nobody wants to play on a YMCA table.
 
Holy sh!t 5+ is huge glad you fixed it Looking forward to meeting you guys.

LMAO! yeah they were very huge pockets, especially for Brunswick Gold Crowns. I've never seen them that big, I too look forward to meeting you and everyone else coming down for thier first time. Come by my booth (A-Tex Family Fun Center) or what of it I may have and say hi.
