    I used to be better, but I haven’t played in a while.

    I used to be better at following orders too! ;)

    I used to be better, but I haven’t played in a while.

    No worries. I’m just guilty of saying that…:)

    I used to be better, but I haven’t played in a while.

    What's the reason behind this post? Does it bother you to hear people say it or do you think it holds them back because it's a form of denial? Or something else? Genuinely curious.

    Did you give or did I take it?

    The loser is the one who made the last mistake. The fewer mistakes you make the more likely it won’t be you. That is it. Always. Just because someone made a dumb sellout mistake doesn’t mean they gave it to you. It means you successfully avoided making the last mistake and they didn’t...

    Fargo Rating

    I'm not entirely sure I understand your question but to take an extreme example. If I play someone in a tournament who has my exact rating, say 600. And I beat him. Then he goes out the next week and wins a tournament full of killers and performs at a 750 - his rating will go up. Now mine...

    Fargo Rating

    A TD here (not CA anymore) told me that the turnout suffers if they report to FR because a lot of players like to fly under the radar. He also said he's sick of it and will be reporting everything from now on.

    Fargo Rating

    No. A Player that I played a few years ago was a 640ish player and then he had a fall off a ladder and injured himself pretty severely and had to take time off. He came back and within a pretty short amount of time was under 600.

    HILLBILLY CHARLIE BRYANT.........ANYONE HAVE ANY CURRENT NEWS ON HIM

    He was on the chat for the Crockett saying that he’s going to start coaching/lessons again soon. Going through some personal stuff recently. I believe it was during the SVB/Styer match while Margaret was in the booth.

    Cues In Hot Cars

    I had my cue in the car one time. McDermott plain Jane. It didn’t warp but the stain liquified and ran down and ruined the wrap. Temp was 106. I stopped off at a girl’s house on the way home from the pool room and stayed a little longer than expected. I traded it in on my Schon at...

    Tuck and Roll

    There is something to this. One time I tried to emulate Bustamante by placing my cue tip on the table and envisioning how I wanted to hit the shit and just letting it fly. I was very surprised at how well I pocketed balls and got shape. Something about just letting instinct take over can be...

    Understanding The Improvement Process in Pool, Life, or Anything!

    This is so true! Also, when you only study the successes you get a lot of bias. Winners in sports always say the same things: "I work really hard" or "Mindset is key" etc... Lots of similar things for successful projects. When I was a ski racer I was talking with Scott Henderson (Canadian...

    8 ball handicaps

    I saw Melvin Sharpe in Denver one time at a league tournament (like BCA regional, but before BCA) give all comers the following spot: Rack 9-ball rack with 8b in middle. Melvin’s break. Melvin is solids and has to make his balls in rotation Melvin has to bank every ball Sucker is stripes and...

    I agree. That was number one. Second for me would be Cory in the long match against Shane which is on YouTube without commentary.
