I'm still struggling with the notion that someone would refuse to play on a DP. So far the only advantage for BR is player time savings of what...?..., possibly 30sec a rack...?
I think I have played a handful of times on a BR table, and it usually costs me just as much time as a "manual" DP would realizing that I'm on a BR and I'm reaching into pockets feeling for something that's at the other end of the table...lol
So if we Pro/Con'd it....
Pro BR:
-time savings (although most places charge by the hour)
-???
Con BR:
-additional costs
-maintenance
-noise
-irritating based on game
-additional ball wear
-call overs by customers when it jams up and you're busy
DP:
-Take the top to categories and flip the pros with the cons
Seems like a complete no brainer to me. Why pay more for your equipment when the literally the only advantage is potentially getting your customers out the door sooner...lol
