Is it normal for one of my balls to be larger than the other...?

Question

when l'm playing pool?

Answer 1

Ya know Johnny, it just makes me wonder sometimes where people come up with these questions. :)

Answer 2

I would be willing to offer a closer examination and give you a second opinion.... ;-)

Answer 3

The cue ball is usually a bit smaller than the object balls.

Answer 4

Depends, are they beautiful balls? Elephant balls? Are you perhaps Belgian?

Answer 5

not really no! would you like me to check them for you?

Answer 6

On coin op tables it is common for the cue ball to be larger than the others so they table knows to send it back to the end instead into the tray with the other balls.

Answer 7

Yes, the white ball will be smaller so that it can be returned to you when it is potted.

If playing pool on a snooker table (ie, no automatic return) then the white ball would usually be smaller simply due to the fact that it is used more and therefore wears down slightly.

Answer 8

I need a vacation..

What size are they when your not playing

Answer 9

No they should all be the same size

Answer 10

the Cue ball will be very very slightly smaller !!! That's why it comes back through the runners when you pot it !!  rather than it join the rest in the trough!!

Answer 11

the white ball is smaller to make sure it goes in the correct return hole. colourd balls are bigger & collect at the bottom end.

Answer 12

No they should be the same size, just put your hand in your pants, I mean on the table and have a little grope ;)

Answer 13

Are they all round?

Are they firm or soft?

Are they white and dimpled?

Are you actually playing rugby or golf by mistake?

Answer 14

That's what happens when you keep smacking them together
