If he can hit the ball in places where you are moving the opposite direction then you are toast! Plus, experienced players can read where you are going to hit the ball. I often saw a guy in 2006 tournaments playing 4.5 and he was much older and would paint the lines and it was fun to see the younger guys running around like chickens with their heads cut off. His name is Yvon Leblanc and is the the nicest guy with killer strokes and deadly accuracy. I have not seem him around in the past couple of years but I am sure Garland will try to recruit him for next years 4.0 league...I was trying to be funny..but not a bad thought since he has not had much success the last 2 years and it could be for health reasons.

He is a pusher and in incredible shape for 105. He surprises people because of his age and looks. <BR/><BR/>I wish I could see Koziol and Campos in San Antonio Major Zone.
