    What's up with my table?

    I guess I'm the problem then. When I was young teen I practically grew up in a pool hall triangle and playboy Billiards in brooklyn ny and I was pretty decent player. I stopped playing regularly and really haven't played much in last 20 years but I never lost the passion to play and always said...

    What's up with my table?

    It really doesn't matter if it's down the rail or not. Basically if I shoot a shot with authority from anywhere and it's not perfect and it just touches any part of the rail it seems to rattle and not go in. I never had any issue with any balls being rejected from the pockets. Just the rattle...

    What's up with my table?

    About a year ago I purchase a used but in super clean shape GC3 table. I figured while I had it apart I would change the cloth. I mentioned to the mechanic check out the rails and see if they need replacing. He said they looked fine it wasn't necessary. The problem I'm having is when I shoot the...

    9' table room sizing

    I think pogmothoin hit the nail right on the head. I went through all this trouble to get a 9' table and every time I go to take a shot and my cue hits the wall ill be sick. While the contractor is still here I might as well move the wall. What makes it a little complicated is that this wall has...

    9' table room sizing

    Thanks for all the info guys. What really upsets me is that it's new construction. If I was just buying a table for my basement I would deal with it .
