Time for the story...................
When i had my poolroom in Chippewa falls, wi, I had a team of girls that just had so much fun. They were always fun to be around and played in all the team tournys like regionals, state, and also the big ones in Vegas every year.
About 13 years later I'm at the Happy hollow in Eau Claire, just back for a week from my traveling and teaching and I meet up with the girls playing in league.
I showed one of the girls my Perfect Aim technique and she was pretty impressed and told me, why don't you show the whole team.
Being some of my favorite girls in the pool world I immediately told her that I would.
One of the teammates was not there though. So she didn't get to see it. Her name is Tracy.
When i saw her later that week she asked me about it but there wasn't time that night and soon I was back on the road teaching again.
Finally I'm back in Eau Claire again licking some of my wounds and healing up at home.
I was at a tourny at the Happy Hollow and there was Tracy, and I told her to come over and I'd show her how my Perfect Aim worked.
I had never watched Tracy shoot much before this and I noticed that she had a really nice stroke and the stance looked real good also. I'm sure her dad Bob, whom is a good friend of mine had something to do with this also, But I could see that Tracy has put allot of work into her game.
I worked with her for awhile and she caught on real quick where the eyes had to be to envision each and every shot correctly .
Soon she was making just about everything that she was shooting at. What a game changer.
I told her when we started that she definitely needed to learn this before the State Tourny in about a week.
I also told her, as I have players that I taught this to before, that I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't just win this State tournament.
She kind of looked at me with that,,,Yaaa RRRight look. And I told her i was serious.
I didn't play in the state tourny myself because I was on the road and didn't play in any leagues.
I was sitting at home on facebook yesterday, and all of a sudden I saw that a lady named Tracy was playing for the hot seat at the state tourny. I thought, I'll bet that is our Tracy.
Then I looked further on the post and her last name was there and sure enough, it was our Tracy.
I went to a small tournament in Chippewa Falls last night and I told Scott that Tracy was playing for the hot seat in the state tournament and I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't snap it off.
Soon one of the other players there gave us the good news.
Tracy had one the womans B division at the State tournament.
Guess what? I don't think that tracy will ever get to play in the B division again.
I for one know that her game has climbed to a higher level and in a real quick hurry.
And I know when you ask Tracy, she will probably tell you how important the dominant eye is.
Congrats to Tracy on her huge win at The Wisconsin State Tournament.
Can't wait to hear her story first hand when she gets back.
A diamond in the Rough and tough pool world..............
Way to go, GGGIIRRRLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
I'm too tired to tell the story right now but.
