First and foremost playing and seeing the members of one pocket.org is the highlight of every pool trip I go on.
Great expectations when I got there, felt great about how I had played this year and thought I would continue to play well.
Josh Roberts changed my tune the first match of bank. Even though I made 4 every game I just couldn’t get the job done. It was the same against Mika in my first match at one pocket. Gotta say man can those guys play.
So it’s back to the basics once again. Drills, straight pool, trying to set up a way to practice to force myself to get that nervous twinge so it will be easier to control. Basics include a locked down pre shot routine, slightly different stance and stroke, basically trying to lock in on each and every shot.
I do have to say though playing sober, it was easier to be nervous, and also easier to see the right shot. But I am going to stick with it, self medicating with alcohol is not the answer. It had become a problem in itself.
So anyone want to give a spot to a d player in Memphis I am game.
