What it takes to get back to instroke........

I'm in the hot seat. TV match on Monday..........

Are we going to get an update on Geno's progress in the tournament he is playing in this weekend OR WHAT?

Hi there Joey,

The shoulder held up and seems stronger than ever. Had a nail biter with Manny Choa from the east coast. Hill-hill.

Played Jesse Engle from Minneapolis for the hot seat. This 17 year old plays great and is tearing up the pool tables around Minneapolis. We've been practicing together off and on for about 2 weeks. He shoots awful good.

He was ahead of me in the final winners bracket match 3-2. I won the next game and he never got back to the table. Ran out the set. It felt good to do something like that. It's been a long time.

Can't wait for the 8-ball to start on Sunday 11:00.

These guys are running a great tournament. It sounds like the Casino will be holding even a bigger one in the near future. The numbers are good.

My hats off to John for making this happen. You know it took alot of hard work..........

Thanks for asking geno............

Almost there............

Gene, are you still using the abbreviated strokes, or are you able to use your normal strokes?

Every once in a while my shoulder will betray me. But for the most part I'm real happy about how it feels right now.

I did use the short stroke on a few crucial shots. Don't quite trust it all the way yet. But it sire is alot stronger than it was. Especially when I think that about 5 weeks ago i couldn't get the fork to my mouth with the right hand. Right now I'm trying to be able to scratch the back of my head. One step at a time...........

Good to see you up and hitting balls. Definitely follow your Dr.'s directions. I agree with Joey your post are the best. Hope you are back to 100 percent soon.
