Bumper Pool Table?

[nrhoades]

In the not to distant future I will be acquiring a table saw, chop saw, other tools, and a bumper pool table. I haven't played this game very much.

Does anyone know of alternative (maybe a bit more challenging) games that can be played on a bumper pool table, other than the classic set of rules?

Thanks

Yes, I envy you!

I began my pool career on a bumper pool table in 1955 and I still love the game!

For variety you might allow jump shots.

You might add that at least one ball must be "holed" with a bumper bank.

If you like REALLY long games, you could mark numbers on the balls and shoot them in order.

If you want a REALLY REALLY long game, play with regulation balls...just kiddin'

Where I live, it's getting hard to find a good 9-foot table, let alone a bumper table, billiards table or anything else.

haven't seen a bumber table in use for years,really enjoyed the game as a kid.
we use to play all balls had to be banked.
or kicked off the bumber or rail..enjoy.
