This Keeps Happening

Typical for a worn out or defective template rack...3-4 balls will come out almost paralell and end up clustered. It really has to be either poorly designed or shot to hell before this starts happening, but I HAVE seen it happen with ancient template racks. I even had it happen to me for a couple of days, until I replaced the rack.

Then buy a new house just for the heck of it.
Gotta luv it.

I need to shoot in a few more fargo reporting tournaments

What do you think your rating should be if you were established?
At this time probably around 550.
If I was playing league and shooting more than 20 hours a month who knows.
I did shoot in a partners tournament a month ago that was not fargo reporting.
It was a last pocket tournament and my partner and I tied for 1'st.
We got bumped down to the losers bracket and worked our way back.
It was getting late and the undefeated team asked if we were interested in combining 1'st & 2'nd and splitting it equally.
Since I had over an hour drive home we agreed.
I am currently looking for more tournaments in the area so I can continue to build my confidence and rateing.

I need to shoot in a few more fargo reporting tournaments

After I stopped playing pool in 2006 a friend talked me into coming out of retirement about a year and a half ago.
I don't play league but practice a 3 or 4 times a month.
I have played in four Fargo reporting tournaments - The first two I fell flat on my face, then the last two I took 4'th and 1'st.
The last one I beat a 547 player to take first and my Fargo rate went from 505 to 511.
My robustness is only at 28 and will take some time since I don't play on a league.
I guess I will have to shoot every Friday night tournament they have to get my rate and robustness up where it should be since they report to Fargo rate.
Most tournaments around here are not Fargo reporting. :(
