Oh Wow it worked! Right lays in a 12 point shot. 4 for the rails and 5 for in the 5 hole and 3 for the kiss. He insisted on a Trophy photo.

Good Morning Starshine, oops Sunshine. 80 degrees is a good time to enjoy the day.
Starting with an unusual score of 10-0 by Lefty. He insisted on a Trophy photo. Ta da.
Now he's ready to crow... .self to self says, Better be careful. No time to celebrate.
It's proof of technique actually. With 2 then 3 point shots. Lefty made it to 10 with the closing 4 point shot. The Right going for the 10 point shot too soon. My softball strategy was hit the singles. If it's a home run .....it better be a line drive that accidentally went out.

The Right responds well with a 6 but Lefty returns with 4. 6-14 now.
Two rails to the yellow jacket 9 ball, is a feel shot for me. Feels natural this morning and I try to stay in tune with Nature.

Right's return of a 6 triggers a caution, self to self.....keep it simple and in order. Follow each step Religious like.
14 serving 6 now.
Lefty followed the stringent protocol and closed the station with a 5 taking a 19-6 lead to the final challenge of 3 or more to the orange stripe 13 on the King pad.

Logic got me to select an unnatural shot for the final challenge. The cocked hat is a favorite and I want to play with the feel and angles. Not sure if I can back it up that much but I need the workout.
Lefty gets the proof of concept award with a 5. For a 24-6 lead. What a fun challenge. Need a 6 or better to close the station and cover the table.
Oh wow Lefty is on a roll. Just found that I can come up short on the 3 rail cocked hat to the 13 giving a 4 railer. Produced "The Heartbraker O the Day. Just that close but no hit. Yikes
This challenge builds on the practice techniques I learned from The Professor (Grady Mathews).

Whoop E!
Lefty completed the Route with a 9. 4 for the rails and 13 stayed on the 5 hole.
33-6 final score definitely gets the record, definitely gets......

Oops I almost forgot the commercial.
Nothing deflates an opponent as quickly as a good kick to the balls.
So take on the Kicks Like A Mule Challenge for an hour a day for 1 week.
As Mike Dooley would say, "You will be shooting so good a Nun would take her clothes off. No no, wait, the whole convent will take their clothes off!"
Heh heh, it's worth a try.

Trophy O the day:
The Right must be feeling a little sensitive Re the score yesterday.
Must be channeling Ronnie Allen.
It's a Maximum 10
1 rail and both in the holes and kissing.
I shall try to stay in goof and good standing with the pool Gawds.
Lefty service at 0-12 looking at the 2 railer to the yellow 1 ball. 2 or more is the self to self reminder, along with bridge allowed for the next station.
Oh it was a thing of Beauty, the white snuggled into the hole and kissing without A sign of disturbance from the red stripe 11 ball. :end gloat:

Lefty petitions the management to close station 2 with a 6 for a total of 8 for Lefty and 15 for Right.
Petition Allowed based on total score of 31.
The second station allowed stance limited to upright, takes me back....to the good ole days. The Mosconi, well my best impression.
The 2 rails are a stimulating brain tickle for me.
The score keeping is a facet of the training.
Now for The Big fun; 3 or more to the King 10 ball. The teal stripe.

Free Lesson: Station 3 provides a textbook shot. The end rail side rail system in Billiards As It Should Be Played by Hoppe.
The cue is laid on the third leg. The system gives me a grid that tells where the well struck ball will hit the side rail where it will reflect into the 10 ball.
Just Do It! (by the numbers).

Right laid in the 9 point shot and claims the Flag. Insisted on the photo
Just beat the sun this morning. 6 AM and alls well.
OOPS 33 is the correct answer......hmmmmm I am so humbly. Butt butt I have an excuse! However my training taught me to stiffle the sniffle.8 for Lefty and 15 for Right.

Late Game, thunder day with a 
.
Lefty has closed station 2 with a 5 point shot that leaves the cueball distant but 2 for the rails and 3 for the dirt color 14 stripe on the hole.
Now for 3 or more to the 15 on the King pad.
Ouh the thunder and lightning are pretty close.
Right service 13-22.

The Pool Gawds finally had mercy. After determining that the side pocket was just in the way, the 4 railer was examined.

The cue is on the 3rd leg line, launch was the empty yellow pad. Was oh so tantalizing and yet right at the limit. The 10 point shot is in the picture. 4 for the rails and 5 for 15 on the King hole and 1 more for the cueball over the pad.
Can't even remember which hand it was now.
Must have had a favorable tail wind .

Good Morning must be August 1st, 2023:
The Deal o the day provides a simple tree top to the 1 ball.
So the variety spice includes the added weight of the extension. It is indeed a rewarding variation that suits both hands with opening 4 point shots by each. Then Right laid in the station closing Maximum 10. 4 serving 14 looking for 2 rails to the teal stripe 10.
An aside is the tap tap I detect on near perfect strikes. Produced mostly by Lefty.
The strong start is a confidence builder. Something I needed this morning.
Still smarting over my 0 and 2 performance in tournament on Sunday. The Left brain have no issue as it went as I preach. Both of my opponents should feel good about their victories as I did indeed, "Make Them Earn It".
