    @hammer313 Před 3 lety

    i read one of the reasons (and there are many others) snooker is harder than pool is the balls are smaller. It means you have to be more accurate as the curve of the ball is tighter. I reckon snooker balls the same size as golf balls would be harder at least for long pots, even accounting for extra space pockets would have.

Information about your table, cloth, the balls you use the type of cushion it has and also how much all of it cost you. Im planning to buy a table so a guide made by you would be of great help. I bet alot of other people also wanna know and have questions regarding your table.

  • @aaronwalderslade
    @aaronwalderslade Před 3 lety

    I think the weight of the ball is the reason it does not bounce correctly off the rail. The rail is not fully compressed, which with a snooker ball creates effectively a flat almost hard wall. With the lighter weight golf ball it ends up in a sort of dish shape of partially compressed rail.

    I play golf as well as snooker ; so tried the golf balls on my snooker table a bit ago ,not for as long as you did though .Because the golf balls are dimpled there is not enough mass of the ball in contact with the table so screw shots just die off .Maybe you should try a set of small cheap snooker balls and see how easy it is or try and find some of the 1960’s crystalite balls ,the ones before the supers .Think you did well to get a 53 break with the golf balls .
