Looking for a new cue ball....one for practice and play - want multi red dot ball. Trying to decide between the Diamond Television cue ball and the Aramith super pro cup [measals] ball. Currently have the pro and like it, but it just isn't white, and gets more yellow everyday!!! Its about 11 years old and its just yellow. Anyone have experience with the Diamond one? TIA

It wasnt completely white when you got it new. They get yellower with age. Nothing wrong with it.
Expensive but cool: https://www.pooldawg.com/black-measles-cue-ball i like it better than the red-dots.
By 'Diamond' do you mean the Cyclop cb? Can't get them anymore unless Diamond has a few left.
Unless I’m looking at siting different they are on Amazon for 30. Combo of red circles and red diamonds
'The Snow Queen'Half a hundred for a rock, wow.
I usually name my CB’s Judy. With a $50 price I might have to use a fancier name for it. Hmmmm
This is the one I bought to go with my Aramith Tournament set. Pool Dawg is out of stock, but KOINNKID at All About the Gameroom has them.

Not the Cyclop. Those would be my last pick for a cueball.
I'm sure there's some left floating around. They aren't made anymore.
What makes it great for you?
Same
formula as the Tournament with Pred's own design.

Just bought one from KOINNKID. I find the Black measles ball less distracting than the red dot one.
Not only that, the Tournament model is the most advanced phenolic, like the Tournament (or Black) set. I have been playing a couple of hours a day for a few weeks with my tournament set and so far, none of the balls have a mark on them, including the cue ball. I am just using plain old Master chalk-

As another response says, the black triangles are less distracting and the ball stays,much cleaner than any other cue ball I have ever played. Cleaner = better playing. I bought one to try and then bought a complete set of balls. Great playing balls.

Not the same. Not at all. I have had probably 4 different sets from Aramith and this is the best of the bunch.
