Coming Soon - Pool Table Numbering System TSTS can be adjusted to work on any size pool table. The first kit to be ready for sale will be for the 3 l/2’ x 7' table. Other sizes will become available shortly thereafter. The creation of a color-coded numbering system that clearly outlines every possible angle that a ball can travel on a flat standardized pool table surface is the basis of this invention and patent. This system can be applied either as an overlay on a standardized pool table surface or incorporated into the design of a pool table surface just under the four rails during manufacturing. The system can be modified to accommodate changes made to the dimensions of pool surface areas. The system operates upon measurements from each rail to all pockets and the color-coding allows the pool shooter to readily discern the best routes on the pool table surface from all angles to the intended pocket. Description Pool is shot utilizing a standardized flat playing surface or field upon which a cue ball makes direct contact with cue balls. The object of this kit is to provide a relatively easy means for a pool shooter to develop the requisite knowledge to shoot pool and advance to a higher ability level more rapidly. On any size pool table, this system is established based upon precise dimensions. Since pool tables have standard sizes, the dimensions of the table surface dictate the measurements based upon the surface to which it is applied. The numbering system serves as a grid for a shooter to follow from number to number. For the purposes of this explanation, an eight-foot pool table is described. The two long side rails of the eight-foot table begin numbering at each end with the number 3 in black lettering on a small block superimposed over and between two one-inch blocks of red and blue. All other numbers, 1, 2, 4, and 5 are on small blocks superimposed over one-inch blocks of red or blue color. A diagram of the numbering system will be included in each kit, which clearly shows the numbering system’s pattern but not to scale. Once the numbering pattern is established, all possible angles that can be factored in order to send the cue ball to one of the particular pockets can be projected as a grid pattern following from each number to one of its corresponding numbers on another rail. The cue ball is placed on an intersecting line and the trajectory of the ball’s path can then be projected from any rail to one or more rails. One of the advantages of this numbering system is to teach new players shooting pool to recognize the extensive number of potential angles through a grid system that intersects angles across the entire table. It also develops a common language. The color-coded numbers facilitate easier shot selections. Game variations include calling shots by rails and number combinations. Learn to use your rails effectively.
