18's Now 24

Just a little bit extra practice!

The extra 6 shots ( 2, 1st gears, 2, 2nd gears, and 2, 3rd gears) are used at the side pockets. 3rd gear is the toughest one for me, especially in the side, because you don't have the rails like you do at the end pockets to help out.  So just make sure you use both left and right English for each side.  Lester

Bright Spot in 18

I didn't do so well in 18 today. The bright spot was that I scratched a lot. You know what that means--DEAD ON!

I found a 2nd Gear automatic. The object ball is in front of a side pocket. The Cueball is on the head spot. Your aim point is the middle dot on the opposite short rail. 2nd gear nails it. If hit correctly, you could come back for a 2 in 1 shot in the end on the same side. Or in a game of 8 ball if you've got the 8 -- you lose!   Lester
