Billiards
Posted (Ken) on 06-03-2008

I have two sports in which I compete: bowling and pool. I am pretty decent at both, as they are both physically easy and mentally challenging. In pool, especially on my league, it is about precision and repetition. You have to know the angles. Physical dexterity is not a requirement, however good hand-eye coordination is. The same extends to bowling. While a little more physical, a great deal of it is still mental. Not letting anything get to you as you strive to throw the same ball at the same mark every single time. I enjoy both sports and both keep me mentally and physically sharp. Both of their respective equipment needs are not that large either. When you are talking about billiard supplies, all you really need is a stick. That’s it! You can go all out and get braces and practice devices, even your own personal table but at the end of the day the only requirement is a stick. You don’t even have to get a stick, if you are content using the warped bar sticks. The very same applies to bowling. outside of the ball, there are few requirements. Sure, some of the pros have multiple balls, complicated braces and shoes, the whole nine yards. However, these are by no means required. You can also get away with using nothing in bowling, but you’ll learn fast that alley balls are not the way to go.
