pool room balls get so much more play and do get smaller. they have to. usually the cue ball is by far the worse. line it up against the rail with two of the higher numbered balls and see the difference. put your cue across them.

We've done that a few times for skeptical bangers.
A lot of these guys simply don't notice the details.
That's not what they're there for. Pool for them is an escape, a once a week night out of the house, drink a few brews, forget responsibilities and bang some balls.
I play on the other side of the room.
Funny, never thought about new balls and speed. I mean, you know when there is new cloth and you figure the balls get cleaned every so often.
Was watching a US Open match with Bergman vs Mellng and Mark Wilson got to talking about abrasions on the balls over time that you donāt see even after cleaning. He said that new balls roll 10 percent farther.
