looking for smokey mountain shoot out updates

hennesee beat derek leonard first round, abernathy beat shane mcminn, earl beat shannon daulton hill hill. i would also love to hear some results.
 
buddy of mine Mack Combs was up there..He did ok...won his first couple of sets and lost.......he's put out now.........said lots of really good people! Said hennessee hasn't lost a set yet....Probabably going to win it! Hope so!
 
I just got home and here is who was left in it:

Shane mcminn only winner left
Jeff abernathey vs Benny conway jr.
The winner of that would play Hennessy
The winner of that plays Mcminn
 
I would like to see a list of all the players that were in it. A few guys from my area went but i don't think the did much. I herd one of the guys got 24TH but that's here say. Can anyone get this? Thanks
 
Jayburger, just got back, Abernathy didn't beat McMinn, Shane McMinn wonit without losing a set. Benny Conway 2nd, Henny 3rd, Jeff A. 4th. I,m sure Daniel will post a lot of details and some pics later. Many champions there. Great tourny. Had a lot of fun, won a little money,saw lots of old friends, and got back safe. Stay tuned for more details when Daniel gets settled.
 
Strong, strong field...to say the least. Wonder how Earl did? I don't think the short track is his claim to fame. Too bad Stevie couldn't make it...he's as tough as anyone on the box. I think he's won it 3 or 4 times.
Daniel you made it back to TN yet? Spill the beans!!!

Yeah, we're back Kevin. Daniel just hasn't logged on yet. Earl played good, got in the money at the end ,but not real high. It was a tough field, Earl beat Shannon in the 1st match, Scott Rabon eventually put him out.

Man that would of been a match to watch....Scott is another one who can beat anyone on the box. Don't be fooled by his goofy bent finger bridge.:thumbup:

yes it was a great match, if I recall, it went hill-hill, I didn't watch it all as I was involved in other things.
 
Earl raked the table for Scott with 4 balls or more left after the match was tied at 5 and when Earl run out to the nine Raybon didn't give it to Earl and he jawed it to lose the match 7-5. The ladie there said Earls mind was great Saturday but shot to hell today, he finished 13-16. Abernethy beat Scott R the next match 7-3, Jared Mcgee also ended Lil Tony's day hill-hill and he finished 13-16. Great buy D--Leonard
 
I was a little tired last night and slacked off on the log-in. :o

It was a fun tournament to say the least. Many strong players came and took their shot but Shane McMinn shot em all full of holes. I am glad that the attendees allowed me to purchase him in the auction for such a reasonable sum.:thumbup: He played nearly flawless pool for 2 days no matter how much he sweat or how many times he fell on that slick floor.

I had a lot of fun seeing a lot of buddies again and had a blast hanging out with Scotty Townsend. This was the first time I have really spent any time around him and he is definitely one-of-a-kind.

On a more somber note, we all need to say a prayer for the Tyler family. Brian is in the hospital and the outlook isn't good, . Brian and his dad Billy have been coming to this event for years and they were missed. Keep them in your thoughts.

When I get a break in a little while I will post a couple of pics form the tournament I took with my phone. They probably won't be the clearest but....... you get what you get.:cool:

These are phone pics so they aren't the best.
