Just a side note about equipment. If I had to play this tournament on a 9' Diamond, I'd score in the 300's. My table is loose.

[DaveK]

EQUIPMENT: yes, but barely
Session #1 = 14,18,10,7,18,20,18,10,6,14=135
Session #2 = 8,10,12,9,18,14,6,12,10,12=111
Session #3 = 14,7,18,16,20,20,8,10,16,12=141 :)
Session #4 = 4,10,10,16,14,9,10,18,16,14=121
Session #5 = 16,10,18,20,16,7,5,16,16,14=138
AVG. = 129.2
TOTAL = 646

And, for the record, I am NOT happy about loosing to the green one :( . It was a tough season around here, my table has terrible rolls and now has lost some bounce in a cushion (and gained an annoying 'thud' in the process), and my time at the table is way down due to the temporary closure of Pacific Billiards ... thank the lord I am right up on the excuses or it would be a total loss :(

[poolcuemaster]

[Fred]

I'm back.
Last year 493. This year 500+. Put a fork in it. Its a done deal.
Table is 8 ft. The corners have been tightened up this year,
comin in at 4.25. the sides are still HUGE at 5.25.
#1=10+7+18+1+20+3+6+10+12+8=95
#2=16+1+20+18+20+14+14+13+8+10=134

#5=8+16+12+16+10+14+9+10+10+4=109
550 total

My break is much improved from last year.
I also had fewer mental errors at the start of the rack, but I made a ton of them at the rotation end.

[deadstroke7]

Equipment - 8' Connelly (with 2.1 ball width corners and 2.5 ball width sides.) Arameth balls, simonis cloth, Viking Cue, Z2 shaft, a little talcom powder to make things go smooth. Here's to a better tournament than last.:D

Session #1:20,19,16,20;14,18,2,8,14,7 138
Session #2:14,3,10,20,1,7,18,12,14,12 111

Avg: 112
Total: 560

; denotes where I took a longer break or stopped for the night. I came back cold in the 4th set, couldn't really get my swerve on for a few racks. I should have taken more time, or done something mentally different instead of slogging along.

Gotta love it!:D

Well, I did beat my last years personal top score. I bested my average by about 20 also. I felt better this year than last about my play, but still too many whiffs. Poor execution of simple shots. and a couple flat out misses. I think the table only jarred two shots this year that would fall anywhere but on my connelly. Anything shot with 'authority' will simply jar in the corners. Makes certain shapes difficult, but only for a mediocre player like me.:rolleyes: Who's probably in the wrong position anyway....:(
A great year at the tournament. Hope everyone has a great holiday.:D

EQUIPMENT: 9-ft Diamond Pro, Pro-Cut pockets (4.5'' corner pockets), Simonis cloth

I'm game to give it a shot again! This years goal is 450+

8' Olhausen, 4 1/8" tough spittin' corners, Simonis

Session #1 = 79; 14, 14, 0, 17, 5, 9, 3, 7, 8, 2
Session #2 = 92; 3, 20, 19, 5, -1, 19, 6, 7, 6, 7

AVG. = 404
TOTAL = 80.8
still lacking focus on each and every shot. 90% of misses were easy shots
This is a great drill for me, I will try to put up another set.

[sde]

This could be embarrassing, but I'll give it a try.
I have not decided on a table to use: 9' GC, 8' Valley, 7' Valley or 7' Diamond (with DEEEEEP pockets). These tables are at different locations, so is it ok to switch tables from one session to the next?

EQUIPMENT: Valley 8', pockets: corners 4 3/4, sides 5 1/4

Session #1 = 12, 4, 2, 6, 17, 2, 8, 6, 10, 6 = 73
Session #2 = 6, 16, 4, 4, 8, 12, 4, 7, 6, 16 =83
Session #3 = 1, 6, 7, 8, 7, 3, 1, 10, 9, 6, = 58
Session #4 = 2, 7, 9, 13, 9, 14, 6, -1, 9, 5, = 73
Session #5 = 3, 6, 5, 2, 3, 20, 7, 14, 2, 11, = 73
AVG...........= 72
TOTAL.......= 360

Well, I said this could be embarrassing and I sure was right about that!:o :o I expected a score of about 450, but with 8 scores of 2 or less.......at least there is plenty of room for improvement.:) :)

sde,
Any equipment is okay.

P.S. Though to be eligible for the $1 million dollar second prize, you must however use the square Aramith balls.....makes it a bit more difficult.

[Jaden]

I actually did this last year too but I didn't post them. I believe I scored somewhere in the mid 700's if I remember correctly, but it was on much easier equipment last time. I only did two sessions today.

EQUIPMENT: Custom nine foot with simonis 760 and pockets cut to triple shimmed width. I.e. the corners are a 1/16" over 4" and the sides are a little less than 5".

Session #1 = 12, 20, 20, 16, 9, 20, 9, 9, 20, 19 = 154
Session #2 = 9, 20, 20, 7, 20, 16, 14, 20, 9, 17 = 168
Session #3 = 20, 20, 16, 20, 4, 19, 10, 20, 18, 20 = 167
Session #4 = 18, 3, 8, 20, 19, 20, 20, 18, 20, 16 = 166
Session #5 = 20, 1, 20, 18, 16, 20, 20, 12, 17, 20 = 164
AVG...........= 163.8
TOTAL.......= 819

[Cuebacca]

EQUIPMENT: 9 foot GCII; 4-1/8" corners; Simonis 860.

Mr. DaveK and Betmore, don't you boys think it's time to wrap this baby up?:rolleyes:

[DaveK]

Mr. DaveK and Betmore, don't you boys think it's time to wrap this baby up?:rolleyes:

I just posted my last few scores, unfortunately the dog hadn't quite finished chewing up my score-card from the basement .... but now I'm gonna rub the card on some leftover steak and hopefully the beast will finish the job ..... soooooo, since I took a few extra days and last year it was extended for the VIProfessor maybe we should give the other tardy ones until the end of the week to post up. I'll make this sugestion in the main forum, hopefully it will be seen in the noise, but if not, too bad, so sad, their loss.

And apparently this frozen Saskatoon-turd cannot compete with the frozen ones from either Winnipeg or Edmonton :mad: Maybe I'll have to get a new cue or something for next year .... btw, do steriods help pool players (I use the term loosely) ?

Cuebacca (9 foot GCII): 111 AVE is not a one hit wonder :mad:

[DaveK]

Last, but not least ( "least" is reserved for the real wimps among us who didn't even bother to sign up), are those whose pre-tournament routine seemed perfect, but were somewhat lacking in their follow-through :

Rivercity, chefjeff, TX poolnut, iba7467, gunslinger, shineyballs

Keep the faith, the next BUD may be for you.

Dave

[DaveK]

... and that's the 2008 BUD Bowl, imo, other than one more post over in the main forum :D

Good shooting.

I've been busy with other things this year and didn't put in the time promised....I beg everyone's forgiveness.

I finished only two rounds:
64 and a 99

That sucks! It's funny, here I just finished Valley league with a 9.125 average (MVP, btw) and this friggin' game yields a 81.5 avg. I shoot better with a competitor, apparently.

Next year!:cool:

You just wanted to show everyone how sloppy I was in looking over the scores and thinking Willie had the second highest ... turns out he was turd :o A couple dozen applogies to my friend Djkx1 in Winterpeg who beat wbm for second.

I would like to mention that the title semi-pro is not at all accurate for my speed.

Perhaps this rating system is a little generous.
