Practice what I Preach

This 1999 Nine ball with insightful comments.
plusses an Efren jump shot!An extremely rare occurrence. I had the pleasure of another in Reno tournament in 85. Efren played the perfect safety putting whitey in the Jaws with 3 balls blocking within 3-4 inches. He fluked in a stray ball doing it. So he jumped off the corner pocket point to hit and hook. A real Gut Punch to the opponent.
 
Oh gosh the jump comes at 25 minutes but the lesson is incredible. Insights of The Professor are of great value.
 
Geometry and Problem Solving
Wer7e always my favorite. 🤷‍♂️

Cold morning start has Lefty at 10 seconds drill.

The Flying Dutchman

Two inches before impact.
At this point finger manipulate is the only adjustment available.
Finger pressures just like playing a musical instrument. Can move the tip significantly. Leverage in reverse.: Headscratch?:
20250113_075155.jpgDon't forget the forms. Frog to falcon.....over?
 
Well Lefty closed target 1 quickly , then laid in this 2 railer with a bridge. The cue lays on the first leg adjacent the remaining cueball. Now 3 or more to the king 15 ball. Go

Putting in time on the balance helps find the optimal stance.

That's gotta be a Trophy
The perfect kick. I rail 1 handed documents shot.
I Balanced That Son Of ah Gun. But it took a while. So the stance was fine tuned. Considering all the repairs that have been done to my chass E. 🤷‍♂️
Going into a fight, is my choice for a stance. I will give it my all. If I fall???? Oh well, at least I went down swinging.
 
The funny part is, I can't remember which hand did it. Shrug. Start over. ? Nah just go 2 rails to the purple 12 ball. Go
 
A study in 10 second laps. It's a fitness program! 🤷‍♂️
Do the laps then check the snaps at 10 seconds. 2 rails to the purple 12 ball.

It's all about the reps. Fitness counts. The reps that is so count the reps. 10 reps is the goal. The Right way. No not according to Lefty. Images are reversed. So wagers laid and now ready set go.

3 rails to the distant 13 ball is an interesting study. Fine tuning still makes the ring finger the shot caller.
