A 14 hour 'grind' where I outran the nuts in my first match
Giving someone the wild 8. I was down to my last barrel
A bunch of times but wouldn't quit, and he couldn't bust me.
From being down a few hundred to just splitting time felt like a win!
A good lesson learned, and a new name that...
Jmho....
You were talking WAY over his head.
Sometimes just a little 'jargon' or unfamiliar concepts
can cause miscommunication.
Maybe his 'thinking' brain couldn't communicate with his
'subconscious' brain...... "Inner Tennis" kind of thing.

Back in the 70's was the first time I heard of an "air barrel"
and thought it was pretty appropriate......
sometime around then I learned about, "jelly" :wink: ........
by the time I learned about the 'wild 8' I was giving it up
to someone nicknamed 'bronco' and it took me 14 hours
to outrun...
how about.....
a Christmas story.......???
AND if you post a picture of all your cues... and your Kling.....
and your anniversary....... THEN you can tell us a New Years
story too.
I like stories.....but wait a minute, while I tuck myself in...
Okay, I'm ready.......... :smile:

I'm right there with you.... but I wish Worst had been in his era....might have been
as good as Federer and Nadal.
I don't get why SJD has animosity toward 14.1 as 1P shares so much with it. I would
think any great 1P player could get pretty good at 14.1 if they wanted to... of course
stroke...
Come on Bill.....
share some more. You have plenty to tell. Your old website
just wet the appetite. If you don't pass them along .. they just
'go away'....

Still playing with my JW over 30 years later! ;)
A 'champion' is a champion IMHO...... they find what they need to do to
get there, and work tirelessly to do it better then the others. I doubt from
all the stories that either side would have to like it, but to say kicking and
banking weren't known in the past like today isn't true. Didn't...
I have the camel color. Unless it is needed for design purposes, I wouldn't go
That route. The contrast vs the balls isn't very good for 'older' eyes. Using tan chalk
Does minimize shaft bluing though.

I'm not sure that if I were at an elite level in the sport, that I would want to help
another competitor and/or share strategy or skill base with them. I know it is a
significant payout for some, but even given that I'm not sure I would help. Maybe
I'm just selfish..
Why do the euros gel...
I'd take a team of Oscars anytime to represent us, and be proud
of them win or lose, because for sure they would give it everything
they've got!!!! Wouldn't mind a Hatch or two either.....:) Just sayin'

I'm not saying that our guys aren't giving us their best this year, as
I haven't seen...
I love the accuracy of the Olhausen rails!! Pockets with the deep shelves
not so much. Great practice table.... not so good for 14.1...will command
your respect and concentration. May not be too much fun to play on if,
you're less than shortstop speed. JMNSHO

tap tap tap.....
Congrats to you. Good job on improving your game. We all (newbies to veterans, and D to A players) learn from listening, watching, and experimenting with what we absorb. AZB is great for this sharing! Glad you found some 'gold'.
