i've used these at league regionals, and some tourneys and i have to say they are a godsend.. racking for a good player isn't difficult, but not everyone in league is a good player. and i have seen more bad racks than i care to remember..
I've had one for about 2 months now. It is as adverized. I'm not much of a 15 ball player, mostly 9 ball, but I have been working on my full breaks. The racks are much tighter than I can do with a wooden rack. I've tried both of them. Not much else to say, but I think it is worth the money. dc8ray
alot of times at pool halls the ball wont hold the spot and you wind up a little below the spot allowing for 4 or 5 balls to fall on a break they say its from alot of playing on the tables any fixes for that problem?
I was wondering how it would perform with 9-ball, 7 ball, and especially, 10-ball racks (as there would be no 'back' row to impact the compression), but the answer would be to use a full rack and then REMOVE the unnecessary balls, leaving the rest in place so I guess it WOULD work with any combination. (It would seem to be 'overkill' and would be unnecessary in 6 or 3-ball racks though!) I'd like to try one though. I wonder if they give refunds inside 14 days or something?
The 8 Ball rack is designed fo 8-Ball only and will not give satisfactory results for the games you metion. I have designed a 9-Ball model but we have not yet put it into procuction.
great idea i hate going into pubs and pool halls and they always have those wooden ones that jus dont situate the balls properly i wish they had 1 off them in the place good 1!!
The Master Rack won the Everyday Edisons show which is a competition for inventors! The event was held March 15th in Dallas. We are also the official rack of the International Pool Tour challenge matches and are approved for use in the BCA Pool League and the APA Pool League.
The Master Rack is approved for use in the BCA pool league, the APA league and has recently been adopted as the official rack of the International Pool Tour (Professional matches) Go to their site to see it used in the Strickland Archer match this last December.
Special Announcement. I realize the case. is not shown at its' best. The strap was adjusted short so that it could be seen over the table in the video. When adjusted properly it does not look dorky.... lol
Russ, Thank you for doing whatever it took to get my rack by christmas. My wife told me how you went out of your way to make sure that as a customer we were satisfied. Unlike what some people might say i stand behind your product 100%.
We have a European model as well. In Europe 2" balls are used. In America we use 2-1/4" balls. We are not yet set-up to begin our European Campaign. The European model has however been approved by the European Professional Referee organization for use in professionalEuropean matches. In America we are approved for use in the APA leage and the BCA Pool League.
I take pride in how I rack. Most people don't. If I had a penny for every time I watched a ball roll out of position while my opponent ignored it, or found gaps between the balls, it would pay for a MasterRack.
BTW - you came up on the second break shot which didn't help the loose rack ;-)
Yes, I came up, butActually it was worse than that. I didn't notice that the tip had flown off of the house cue on the prior break. The result was a terrible break that I decided to put up as a bad example.
Thanks, the 9-ball rack is designed and patented but I have to sell more 8-ball units first. In the mean time, I hope everybody enjoys their 8-ball racks. It really is the best tool for the job!
Thanks, and I understand what you are saying. I imagine that people once felt the same way bout pool cues, But believe me, once you've used it you will miss it when you play without it. carrying it is really no problem. Let's face it, the pool halls simply do not provide you with the best equipment available. You spend a lot of money on your sport. Shouldn't you get every bit of fun for your pool dollar?
Actually, we are selling to a lot of players who don't own tables. They are buying it to carry into poolhalls with them. Once you get used to it, you will not want to be without it, which is why we sell custom carry cases for them.
I was sceptical at first, because why not just use a standard wooden Rack? Well let me tell you that the Master Rack kick's ass! It's very tight and very easy to use. I would highly recomend it!

The footspot sticker is placed where the front ball in the rack goes. Often you will see them peeled up! The Master Rack will not do this.
