So, I have a new practice routine. Due to the fact that I work 7 days a week 12-15 hr days, when I can put a couple hrs in( every other day), I'm getting tired too easy doing drills! So, when I do practice, I usually warm for 10-15 minutes and I play 9-ball!

So, the routine is simple, play a 10 ahead set against the ghost 9-ball with BIH after the break. I'm excited tonight because I finally beat the ghost!:) I keep track with the total number of games played so I can track my progress. I usually get into the 30's, and tonight, I played 31 games to beat the ghost:)

What I love about this is the fact that it keeps me focused and I feel the competitiveness:) for all you folks that work like a nut like I do, and want to try and put some good practice in, try it out! I can feel my stroke and my focus getting more consistent.

That's a good feeling! Just put my first 5pack on the ghost this week. Felt like Superman lol. Keep up the hard work and dedication
 
I've been mixing my practice routines up lately. I start out with some stroke training just to keep the muscle memory. I then play the ghost 9-ball race to five, but I can only use the vertical axis on the CB, no side. It forces you to play the correct angles or you're screwed, but it also teaches you where the CB is going. The next day I might play the ghost to 5, but it's 15 ball rotation. Finally at least once a week I like to play a race to five 3 ball bank pool.

That's funny you say a 5pack:) the score was 6 for the ghost around 13-14 games and then I hit a 5pack on him, missed the next game, and then a 3pack! I was on fire after the 5 pack! I kept putting up 2 and 3packs! It's an awesome feeling:) oh, and by the way no magic rack, breaking them wide open on 9ft goldcrown3 with 4 3/8 pockets!

It's important to say no magic rack, ive run multiple racks with no ball in hand with the magic rack because of the routine break and outs you get from soft breaking!
