Bryan,
Is the camcorder and the tripod small enough to fit into the large pocket on a pool case?.............Thanks Ron

The dimensions of the camera are 4.25" x 2.19" x 1.17" (H x W x D), so its quite small. The FlipVideo Tripod is also about 3" tall.
I have no issues carrying it in my pool case.
Do you need a special carrying case for the Flip Camcorder to keep from scratching the lense?
I thought I read that the lense is not covered or protected.
The camera comes with a small pouch that will help protect it from scratching. I would recommend picking up something with a little more padding if you wil be carrying it around in your pool case.
Bryan good shooting and contrary to your opinion I think your break is well on its way to being very solid for ten ball. Get rid of the damn magic rack though, that's hurting your control over the 1 ball. That's the only reason I don't use it anymore. It's nice the rack is super tight but the 1 ball doesn't react naturally to me using it. Enjoy practicing with a pro and it seems like you guys are friends so don't lose that over some pesos.
Donny is also a freak, he makes the long tough first shot you usually leave him and gets in line and seems to never get out of line. No wonder he won that Seminole event, guy is good!

Thanks Mikey, I appreciate that.
Its funny you say that about the Magic Rack. When Donny and I first started shooting about 2 months ago, The game was the Last 4, RYO, and we didnt have the Magic Rack. When Donny gets his break working, the diagram below is the result. Its controlled. I like this approach a whole lot more than trying to crush the rack. I try to hit the rack hard enough make the corner balls go 4 rails. After that, I am trying to control my rock. After all, in rotation games, all you need to make is a ball and have a shot on the one.
My 1 ball was coming straight back. Perhaps I should have gotten a clue and moved a little to the right or left... lol
I am getting similar results with the Magic Rack.... The balls behind the 1 head toward the side pockets, and if you "pop" the break (I dont really know how to describe it properly, I get this effect by elevating the butt of the cue some,) the one ball comes back towards the head string. This is probably due to the cue ball going airborne a little, so the 1 ball can get by.
I guess that I just havent noticed any strange behavior on the 1 ball.

My buddy Ray came back from the last Seminole event where D. Mills snapped it off. We were in Ballys Gym the following Monday at 8am benching and discussing what a freak of nature Carlot is. For all my life, I have never known anyone who can really work out like an animal in the gym and then go play worldclass pool. Donny can. So Ray says to me, how strong is this....Friday night before the event Donny is in the gym supersetting and doing a crazy Chest and Back routine. Then the guy wakes up the next morning, goes to Capones and beats Rodney, Stevie and Archer twice to snap it off.
We talked about it all week. It became the running joke that we needed to channel the inner Donny mills at Ballys.

I enjoyed watching. Thank you for posting.
if you had any game with the girls you would pick them up.
I wouldnt know, we played on a 9ft Diamond Pro-Am.
Ha that's funny. Only thing I don't do is those tricep extensions with dumbells. Reason I don't is because the form you do it in is the exact same way you hold a pool stick and stroke. Could be fine but I won't do it.
Funny, I picked up more girls when I was a fat boy then I do now. lol.
I have been to this establishment twice. It is awesome. Good tables, reasonable rates and nice eye candy.
I know Donnie works out hard, but I think the key is in his "Secret" relaxing technique, as shown in a photo by Annie Nord.
... And for a nominal fee Donnie, it will STAY a secret!!!!
:thumbup:

lol!!!! :grin::grin::grin:
I enjoyed watching some of the videos. My only advice to improve your break and is to stand up a bit and not break in your shooting stance so to speak, your too low on the cue. Very impressed with Donny and kudos to you for giving the guy some action and us something to watch. 
Yeah...coz Donny is still undercover?
I can't watch the vids. Make:sorry: me think I can't play at all.
To celebrate Donny's excellent play at Turning Stone, we are going to play this game again on Saturday.
Lets see If I've gotten any better in the last two years ;-)
Either way it will be fun.
I plan on bringing the camera, and posting the results again.
