Why 9 foot? Plenty of quality 8 foot and 7 foot tables out there for residential use. Quality 9 foot table like diamond or Brunswick gold crown run around 10 grand.

For learning how to play 8 foot or 7 foot fine. You can learn just as good how to drawn, stun, follow, and spin the cue ball. The only thing 9 foot table get you is long shots. Which if you’re aiming is correct don’t matter if it’s 6 foot or 12 foot table.
