Your Billiard Lighting is Important

Have you ever played pool in poor lighting? You thought a shot was good, but it went wrong because of a shadow on the table. If your light is installed too high, the light will be shining in the eyes of the players. If the light is too low, you may find yourself hitting it with your cue. If the light is uneven, you will have shadows on the playing surface. The correct billiard lighting and installation can definitely affect your game.

Ideal billiard lighting will illuminate only the table, not the whole room. The edge of the light field should end at the edge of the table. A basic rule of thumb is that the bottom of the light fixture should be approximately at the bridge of the player’s nose. This will be around 32” above the playing surface. Exact positioning will depend on your table and your lighting fixture.
