I dont think all that zone stuff means very much. All it means to me
is that youre hot, on fire, playing your best or even over your head.
People talk to you, but you dont hear them until the balls are gone. I
file that under mental aspects. When that is under control, everything
else will follow. The best players(pros and the like) can force it
out, even on a bad day. Raw talent, experience and practice fills in
the mental gaps. The rest of us are human, having better days than
others. I'm not saying pool is all mental, but when you expect to run
an open table and know you can....its mostly mental from there.
Nite before last at league after having 2 break and runs done to me and
knowing full well that no matter what I did I could not save the round
(and entire match) from being lost I broke and ran 1 of my own and can
actually claim that the only thing running thru my head was my version of
"set , Pause , follow thru and stay down until the OB drops in the pocket"
and before I knew it I was straight in on the 8 ball and scared to death
I was going to blow it lol, But I just took my time , popped up on it once
because it didn't feel right then stayed down on it and stroked it into
the pocket ! No zone that I could sense ? just fear of blowing a solid run
out !
Tom S.- Running racks more often than usual lately ?
