Since most shots will be made at an angle to the table, or with the butt of the stick raised, relatively few shots will require the shorter cues. Most people will accept some inconvenient crowding of an 8 foot table, including occasional use of short cue sticks, before opting for a 7 foot table. You will find the larger sizes much more challenging and enjoyable, however Pooltableportfolio offers 7ft Bar size pool tables to accommodate those that want a billiard table but do not have the space. Several of those tables are also convertible into dining tables.
