I had the pleasure of a few of his exhibitions in the late 80s and early 90s. He could do push-ups with his hands and feet against the head and foot rails of a 9 foot table. Tennessee Tarzan is an earned nick name.

Gotta wonder what he's looking at when he makes that cue ball talk. Heck he makes it talk in 3 different languages. 🤷‍♂️ 😉

I was wondering how tall Mike Massey was and Google AI was hopeless with a sub 6 foot estimate based on pictures adjacent other players. 🤔 so much for artificial intelligence. 🤷‍♂️ Well I would certainly value any input from Mike on the topic. Yes I can call him Mike instead of Mr Massey as...

Rail first is a good way to get a feel for exactly where I am striking the cueball. Sometimes it's not where I thought it was. My simple kick practice is rack 'em 3 ball, break then kick them in. A week of this after I had quit my day job allowed me to execute my greatest big boys tournament...

Might as well continue with "the stories ". 😉 I would go to the 211 in Seattle back when it was upstairs at 2nd and Bell. I was working in a cabinet er uh furniture shop as lead carpenter. My $5 bar table tournaments were providing an 250 a week average. So I expected to donate 25 (at least)...

"Good morning Vietnam" is a favorite quote. Talkin' 'bout My Generation. I avoided it through appointment. My number was low 100s. Would have been scooped up and thrown into the fray in the jungle. Yikes! After resigning my appointment I was eligible but the board had no experience with a...

In general outside spin gives the most natural contact between balls. The friction factor can be huge in tavern barbox play. 🤷‍♂️ So good on ya. You should in practice experiment with speed and spin. In competition go with what you know.

🤔 Where was 👁‍🗨? Development of habits: Have a Good Dr inspection. Even Stephen Hendry had inspection from the Good Dr. So reminds me of MASH episodes that got the shrink involved. I played my best when I felt good about what I was doing. (In Life)🤷‍♂️ even if it wasn't "Normal" 🤷‍♂️...

The discussion is very enlightening and reinforcing for some of my theories. Interesting is the slight differences which leads me to introspection and consideration.

Well Yogi said, "Baseball is 90% mental and the other half is physical". 🤷‍♂️ Great Minds 🤷‍♂️

This does bring flashback moments for me. It's been a long time since I performed to the level I achieved then. The pursing of the lips to blow on exhale was a Tell. Done as I centered my elf er uh little self.(I guess 😉). It worked then. Don't know about now. 🤷‍♂️

Figured I should self export er uh de port. Besides deeper thoughts are worth contemplation. 🤷‍♂️

Okay gotta brag (and I have not been drinking)(uh yet 😉). Cole turned me down on a well, they story's a repeat butt. We were burning one in the van at close. I got chatty and bragged on my left handed victories. Coles roll eyes question was, "how good Do you play Left handed?" And my reply...

With both hands, of course. 😉 👍

Well the situation or task that I was illustrating is Unusual. It could favor one method over the other. The best way to sort it out is give it a scientific method experiment and see what works best For You. don't pre judge. Try it, you might like it. 🤷‍♂️

Perhaps standing taller is a reasonable close to topic detour. Perhaps the eye pattern standing tall is a contributing factor. 🤷‍♂️ How does that song go? "Short people got no bodys" One last off topic observation came watching the latest snooker event with close observation of the eye...

I strive to perform better than Most People. 🤷‍♂️ The numbers experts will most likely confirm that numbers don't lie. They can however miss lead. "There are lies, damn lies and statistics. " is a favorite quote. Deciphering the numbers is critical. I strive to follow a scientific method. My...

Looking like my table time is about up. I will leave with a plug. Looking at the cueball as I strike it provides the best results.

Same shot different extremes. After the 10 second picture pause, I executed the shot. The upright pocketed the ball. The chin on missed the pocket. 🤔

I was gonna say Minisota Fats. You beat me to it. Cheers 🥂
