Golden West Billiard's idea was to build the best playing slate pool table in the marketplace. Using all American products was very important in his plans. The tops of the pool tables would all be the same.
The price difference would be in the furniture style of the table and not in the playability of the table. This philosophy is still adhered to today. All Golden West pool tables have the exact same playing surface. The slate, cushions, cloth, and pockets are exactly the same. The only difference in the tables is in the furniture aspect. Styling was very important to Don and his plans for building a more attractive pool table that would complement a customers home décor. Pool tables were very commercial looking and Don's vision was to reproduce pool tables built at the turn of the century. Using old world techniques with modern technology Don's dream has become a reality.
Unique antique and contemporary designs have become the trademark of Golden West Billiards over the past 42 years.
Unlike other so called American pool table manufacturers, Golden West does not purchase parts from overseas. Foreign pool table manufacturers dominate the marketplace today. Cheaply made products may look decent but become throw away models very quickly. Pool tables made with
inferior woods and finishes are commonplace in the marketplace today. Formaldehyde is a primary ingredient used in the finish of imported pool tables and has been found to be very harmful to your health. Golden West believes in quality over quantity and strives to be environmentally responsible.
Over the years Golden West moved to several different locations in Southern California. Each move was into a larger facility with more equipment. More employees were added and production soared. In 1993 Golden West moved to Portland Oregon. Oregon was selected for several different reasons. American northwest hardwoods were grown locally, readily available, and the business climate was much more favorable for American businesses to succeed. This move
turned out to be a deciding factor in the success and growth of the Golden West Billiards
overall business plan.
Golden West presently ships pool tables to dealers through out the United States and Canada.
Golden West dealers can also be found in many countries around the world. The exportation
of pool tables worldwide has increased at a rapid growth and continues to be an integral part
of the business.
