Well I went and practiced some today. I don't really see much improvement on my mechanics, but a bright point was picking up the 8-10 split. The 10 is hard to see due the bad quality but its there, at least at the beginning.

I love how you paused in disbelief. Then looked around to see who else saw that. Good thing you recorded it. Congrats.

I saw that pin bounce around and was just like wow. Then I thought why couldn't I have done that all the times I've left it in sanctioned play. The next thought was I hope it was recorded and I didn't block the view of it. One of the few videos I took over the course of 5 games. It was one of the better shots from the day though.

Congrats on the pick up. I would have to agree with Dennis though. The moment of disbelief was a little funny. I will say though once the pin went flying I would've thought anything could happen. Well at the very least you learned how to pick up this split when you leave it. The problem though lays in replicating exactly what you did.
