My son's highlight video

Nice shooting, you need to get him on some 9 footers though. Shooting at this level at that age is pretty strong, some advanced shots he pulled off, even knowing they were there to shoot is good never mind executing them.

Agreed. And let him know pool is not a career choice! It is forever recreation though and nothing wrong with being a beast at it.
 
Thank you. 3 months ago we bought him a 9 footer and moved the 7 foot table to the basement. He was scared of it at first, but last weekend he ran a 2 pack on me :).

Yes I am very proud and I do brag a little too much about him he hates it.

We have discussed the future of pool and he knows that school or trade school or some kind of cotinued education after High School is a priority. But right now he has no bills and loves playing in tournaments and winning a couple hundred or even a thousand in one weekend. At 13 I dont know what i would have done with that kind of money in my account :)
 
he walks fast, especially in the beginning. :grin-square:

nice shooting, kid! :thumbup:

thx for sharing, dad. :cool:

Plenty of money to be spent these days, everyone needs a new iPhone yearly, that's near 1,000, computers, consoles, games for those, Nike AirJordans, Guicci belts, white t-shirts with Supreme stamp for $100 each, easy to spend money LOL

When I was a teen I bought books and model kits for $10-20 now kids buy luxury goods. If you have a cheap phone at school you get made fun of.

You should encourage him to enter the Exam III Junior Division of the $10,000 BU Playing-Ability-Exam Challenge. He can win some easy money. We currently have only two junior entries.

Tell him good luck for me,
Dave

We checked out BU Exam I last night. He was having fun trying to beat Shane's score. I think he will try it this weekend

Be sure to have him try Exam III first or also. He should be able to place in an event and win some easy money in the Junior Division of Exam III (if that matters to him).

Regards,
Dave
