Whats going on with these tables?

Just played all weekend at a State Tournament with 94 shelti tables,,brand new out of the box. First time I ever played on one.
In general they played OK but there were a few issues. First thing,,when ball hits a rail there is not much action,,kills the ball,,at little. Not much of a problem other than effecting the table speed and is just a matter of becoming used to it.
But when banking a ball,,hmmmm?? They all go long and all come off the rail with spin on the ball. (caused by hitting the rail) And if you put english on the ball going...

We’ve got four at my local home bar. Good history. Been around a while and have a connection to Valley. Plays kinda like a Valley. Bar cueballs (purple or green Aramith included ) work.

Dynamo first bought the Valley company, then later merged them into the same factory in TX. The Valley/Dynamo company was later sold to Brunswick by Dick Sheton, who after a no-compete clause later opened the Shelty Co in Bay City, MI in the hopes of taking back the Vendors with his new line of tables, only problem is...no one had come up with a new coin-operate pool table design in the last 15 years except King Cobra coin-operated pool tables, and then Diamond with the "Smart Table" design, which still makes all other coin-operated pool tables way behind the times:grin:
