    Acs nationals in Vegas …. Meh

    Our participation in BCAPL events has always been a vacation. With a win paying a good portion of the trip. It's Recreation and should be enjoyed. We met and interacted with some nice couples. They dispatched us handily and we got more time to enjoy other facets of the casino.

    The shot for the Right is 4 rails around the purple trophy 🏆. Well it's the right shot for Lefty as well. Alls well and ends well. Off we go.......

    The abbreviation temptation at times arises. When thinking right, I take a break. Squats!? I don't need more. Lefty's definitely motivated and elated to find a shot. Straight to the end rail past the teal trophy, with special sauce to get the side adjacent the trophy. Then foot rail straight...

    15-4 then each added 2....17-6 when Lefty 🔥 a Max! 11 more and a Trophy picture. 2 rails to the teal 2 now 3 or more to the king 15 with snooker like precision. Chin on the cue.

    But we all gotta start somewhere. Re habiting. 🤷‍♂️ Oh yeah the game report.....Lefty was showing off and hit the 5 at station 2 one handed. Right reply with, "that's a bridge too far." Making a 4 with Mosconi setting the form.

    Good Therapist , you are. 👍 Ah thank you! I was struggling with how to say that. A Dirty Harry line comes to mind."A man's gotta know his limitations."

    The Falcon is after the snake. Was gonna call it The Eagle but that rhymes with Beagle....not a good name, not a good name. Falcon is the focus on the interaction of the tip and ball. Be prepared to report. Lefty is definitely groove E First the 5 on the purple 4 then hits the 2 railer to the...

    My wife and I played in the Scotch Doubles. I was disappointed that all the matches were in one congested area with a shit load of tables sitting idle. More than half the room was not used. Having to navigate through congested aisle to get to the table with obstacles like moved chairs in the...

    Aiming for power draw

    Barry Stark gives good guidance on youtube. His Grip lesson lead me to the ring finger as the trigger. It works! Well for me 🤷‍♂️. Interesting that Barry doesn't teach cueball last but he can't deny the success some like Hendry and O'Sullivan attain doing it. I think you make a good point in...

    Oooops I forgot the Left vs Right is the competition. If one hand lags significantly behind the other, a handicap can be employed. My Left hand started out way behind but has the advantage of better foundation and mechanics that have been built from the ground up. The Right hand had bad habits...
