How Often Can You Run This?

How often can you posters run out these balls? No set pattern to play these, just however you wish. It took me 7 tries to get it out the first time. I thought it wouldn't be that difficult and I'd get it the first 2-3 times. Guess that shows what I know. Or what my skill level is.

Not that easy if shooting in rotation 1-6, as you have to leave an angle on every shot, but if you leave too much angle, the shots get too hard. Of course it depends how what size table it is and how tight the pockets are on the table.

In rotation, I’m guessing on our 7 foot Diamond I might be able to do it 1/2 times, and on our 9 foot Diamond may be 1/5 times. Of course, if one did it for any length of time, they should get much better at it, as is the case for any drill. And if you don’t have to do it in rotation, most players should be able to do it at least 1/2 times even on a 9 footer.

9/10 times on a really tight GC with medium humidity, 8/10 when my new Diamond gets here.

I did this drill 3 hrs straight yesterday. It has 15 variations, I got through the first 5. I think I went up 5 fargorate points in 3 hrs. Note, Neil's has the balls frozen, but that didn't make sense to me, so I put them about 1/8" off the rails. I haven't felt this good about a practice session in years. Its originally from Bert Kinnister.

On pro spec equipment, I think that anyone that can run this out more than 70% of the time is probably Fargo 700+.
 
I just tried about 20 more times. Never got it out once. I always found a way to hose things up. Like I always do.

Missed a shot. Missed position. Got too straight on the 5B.

Had to quit for the evening to get ready for the 49ers and Colts game.
 
It's a cosmological problem lol. Meaning it's a cosmo.

Not one for hyping the treachery in a remedial drill. The issue is apathy. Hopefully I can get out of it and anything similar _when_ it comes up.
