Playing City 8 ball
I shall be playing City 8 ball A Grade this season, also have offer to play in Souths division, but I cannot spare Monday nights due to prior commitments.
It should be interesting playing 8-ball again. I was once quite a good player. I plan to reassert my position in 8 ball and concentrate even harder than ever. A good friend of mine is currently 3rd in the world.
I need to get the cue I have fixed, I want to shave the tip down at least 1mm & add a nylon ferrule to the tip before I can really get a feel for the game. I have a feeling I might require a breaking cue as well as I will most likely mash the cue tip otherwise.
Or even a 9ball cue instead for breaking… There was nine 9ball on tonight and I filled in and I was asked to fill in for a team. I only won 1 frame in 4, with 2 frames containing way out of the ordinary flukes to pot the 9, *sigh*, that’s nine ball!! Would be worth having a cue and trying to play a bit more. I used to LOVE nine ball.
Back to 8 ball, I have nfi who is on my team except one guy. It should be interesting, so whatever happens I need to be able to pot consistantly by Feb 11, or 14th or something. I am going to be taking it very serious, but it starts with fixing up this current cue, or buying another.
