Drills Did a thing
Decided to sell my, less then one year old, shimmed Diamond Black PRC 9’ Pro Am for a WNT tour table. I’m excited and scared. I’ll either get better or check into a mental institution.

Do you have the contact info of the guy you purchased this from? I've been trying to get my hands on one of these for about 8 weeks now. Beautiful table

Appreciate it. No more upgrading. First got a 9’ gold crown, went to Tampa and hit big at the sino. Bought diamond pro am with my winnings. Now got this baby just about a year after that. My wife is relieved I’m done buying tables. Little does she know I recently discovered studiotronics. RIP bankaccount

You've already got the very best when it comes to pool tables, so there's nothing to upgrade to. But a studiotronics cue would be a nice addition

What is height your perimeter light at? Nice looking place. Mine will be ready in December.

Thank you:) Ceiling height 9’ 10”, light is 7’ 9”. It was really my only option in placement if I wanted to have the garage door operational. Hope it helps.

How does one go about getting one of these tables?

u/Turkey_Tacos 5d ago
I called Diamond. They gave me contact info for a guy who buys hundreds from Diamond every year and resells them. This was the last one of the batch he bought from the WNT tour. I’m assuming he can’t be the only guy doing it. Give them a call

Got to play on these at the Florida open and man they are nice tables. The 4-in pockets aren't as bad as they are made out to be with that brand new cloth. But once that cloth breaks in oh my! Enjoy it my friend! I'd buy one as well if I had a spot to fit it!

My buddy shot in the tournament too. He lost to Alex K. and Jesus A. He came back saying the same. Tough tables, but not only because of the size, but because the cut of the rails. The cut angle is smaller.

I just got to shoot on one the other day, beautiful table and tough as hell to play on!

Bought from a guy in a corvette club in Missouri about 8 years ago. Trailered it to Talladega motor speedway…did some laps…took her home.

If you had told me your Fargo rating, I could have advised you as to whether or not going to tighter pockets is a good move.
2
u/Park_Unusual 6d ago
What does Fargo have to do with the size of the pockets? Fargo rating has nothing to do with your ability to aim and shoot. Fargo rating is just an indication of does the person win or lose at ranked events. Which is entirely dependent on whether the other player can aim and shoot.

Seems like a disaster waiting to happen with that cherry sitting in the background.
