Hello folks.
I'm looking at converting a building at my cottage to house a pool table.
Measurements are 15' 5" x 15' 5". I'm thinking of trying to squeeze a 7' Valley in there. Obviously I'm fine for width, but I'm short on the length. I've done the math, so I know I would need a shorty cue - maybe a 48" Balance Rite.
My first question is for those who've had similar issues - how have you found it playing on a table in similar right spots? Is it too frustrating? I may try the "fake wall test" (replicating the problem at a pool hall) but that's not the same as actually living with it.
My second question is about Ridgeback rails. My 7' playing is generally on Diamonds. What is your experience on with the Ridgebacks, especially the "pro" version designed to replicate the Diamond as much as possible? Anyone try the new "league cut" version?
