Premium Chalks – Are They Worth It?

Dr. Dave objectively tests the most popular new “premium” chalks to see how they compare to traditional Master chalk. The chalks tested are the medium hardness Predator Pure, Kamui Roku 6, and Taom V10. They are tested for miscue limit, persistence on the tip, persistence on the CB, and cling/skid/kick. Contents: 0:00 - Intro 0:49 - Miscue Limit 3:22 - # of Shots Before Miscue 5:17 - Chalk Mark Persistence ---- 5:38 – cling definition and demonstrations ---- 6:19 – FSR and SVB cling examples ---- 7:07 – chalk tests 8:42 - Cling/Skid/Kick 10:56 - Wrap Up NOTE: The main advantages of the newer premium chalks is that they last longer and are cleaner, leaving less debris, residue, and stains on your hands, the cue, and the table. Taom should be pronounced “towm,” not “tah om.” Supporting Resources: chalk testing resource page: https://drdavepoolinfo.com/faq/chalk/... how to chalk properly: https://drdavepoolinfo.com/faq/chalk/... throw tutorial: https://drdavepoolinfo.com/tutorial/t... cling resource page: https://drdavepoolinfo.com/faq/throw/... recent FSR-SVB pro 8-ball match with cling happening in two consecutive games: https://www.youtube.com/live/oySFm6vKrko Subscribe to Dr. Dave's YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/DrDaveBilliar...
