A good day of 14.1

14.1 - real pool

Today started out normal, walked to Starbucks for my morning coffee, got back to the office and made my daily calls to Walsh and Schmidt. I decided to try a few innings before I went in the shop to work on an engine. Ended up running 61, called Walsh and Schmidt.

After dinner I racked them up again and ran 75 in my second inning. I guess all the time John has put into my game is paying off.

I posted the 75 but had to break it down into 2 parts again due to AZBtv's new limit on 50 MB videos.

hi

awesome run .id like to think your playing this good because of me.
in reality its because you have the inate ability to become very good at something you put your mind to.
if everybody i taught improved as much as you have i would be teacher of the year.
youve had the talent inside i just maybe helped you organize some thoughts a little and from there youve ran with the ball like a champ.
i cant wait to see your first 100 on film[hes ran 111,and 120 ].
its a good thing im on a computer when it happens because ill probably lite a cigar and shed a tear like a proud father .lol
 
Hey John, remember me ? Maybe you can teach me some next may in Vegas ? i am sure you will be there for the US Open 10-Ball, we could go to cue club in vegas... let me know...

greets sascha
 
hey john

why don't you teach me instead of breaking your arm when i come to pensacola.i am a pure dog at straight pool but i am almost mediocre at one pocket

Jesus, Eddy!

About 5 or 6 60s within the last week and now a 75. :thumbup:

I think your comfort level is rising and you will get consistently into the 70s and 80s with at least a couple more 100s by the end of the year.

You ran a 40 something in competition at the World Championship in August, too. For not being a pro, you play darn good.
 
ran 98 like 4 weeks ago, missed an easy breakshot ! F***** ! well, the next 100+ is coming sooner or later... had 62,8,54 last night though... am not a pro either... :wink:
 
Great shooting Bill! Thx for posting these. I learn a few things from you again.
You made several really good shots at the end but kept getting exactly where you did not want to be. That is one of the things about straight pool that makes it such a challenge. It is always amazing how you can have a lot of balls on the table but NOT a decent shot on any of them.

You then make several amazing shots one after another and eventually come up with no shot at all and finally there has to be a miss. My problem is that I usually miss a very easy shot because I am thinking too much when I should just be shooting what I have already decided to shoot.

Hi Bill,

I've enjoyed your recent vids.

Pretty soon your typical morning is going to be something like....." got up .....ran a 100 and something, ...yawn.....coffee......crossword.....another 100 and something.......:cool:

Keep 'em comin'.

I thought I heard mentioned a run of 164 by John which he narrates as he runs it. Where is it? I want it right now if not sooner.
