Let me first say that these look incredible...if you think you'll be able to successfully target billiards communities on the internet I'd say $50K is a reasonable goal...then again, all else equal, the lower the goal, the higher the chance of funding success.
As an amateur pool player, I'd like to see these balls being endorsed somehow, even if it's just quick video clips from clubs and halls that you've tried these out at. You mention everywhere that these are just as good or better than conventional balls, but I still want to see "proof", if you know what I mean. Billiard balls are one of those things that, like you say, haven't changed in so long, that people may automatically assume that there's a good reason for it, even if there's not.
