Pool Table Lights: Enhancing The Playing Experience

103 47
Pool table lights create an atmosphere in your game room, not just around your pool table, but in the entire room.
You create an ambiance with the lighting, which is why it pays to be mindful of the effect you want to create with the lamps and lights you buy for your billiard table.
Pool is social game, so when purchasing proper lighting for your game table area, it's important to keep that in mind.
You want to maximize the enjoyment of being in that area with your friends when you're playing.
You want to create an atmosphere that is...
well, that's up to you, isn't it? Relaxing, sophisticated, fun, cozy--whatever you're going for, the lights you choose to mount above your pool table will play a big role in that mood.
If you choose lighting that is too dim, it will be difficult to line up your shots because there will be shadows on the balls and on the playing surface that interfere with your concentration when shooting.
It won't be as fun, not very enjoyable compared to when the table is properly lit, and it won't be a very enjoyable experience.
If the lights shining down on your pool table are too bright, it will probably be better than if they were too dim, but it will still be annoying because you won't be able to see easy enough to enjoy the game to the fullest, kind of like walking along a beach in the afternoon with no shades: you know it's beautiful, but it's too damn bright to enjoy that much...
On the other hand, when you get the lighting right, with the balls and table illuminated with very little shadow anywhere but the very tip of the base of where the balls are sitting, and the lights emit a warm and inviting glow around the pockets and the rails of the pool table and the surrounding playing area, then it's much more enjoyable to play and you will find yourself wanting to play more often.
You'll enjoy hanging out with your friends a lot more in your game room because you will have removed one of the big barriers to enjoyment of this social game from your playing space and you'll have a lot more fun when racking up and shooting a round with the boys.
So when you get your own table, choose pool table lights for it that both light the table properly and enhance the experience of playing the game and hanging out in in that game room space.
If you do this, you will enjoy the experience of playing pool in your home much more.
