  • Hello from Belgium

    Hello all, first sorry if i write some mistakes because my English is not so great.. so correct me if i write something wrong ,so I can learn more..

    I will be polite and introduce myself..

    Short story : I'm living in Belgium and i'm now 60 years old and played in the 80-ties and early 90-ties snooker at a reasonably level (for Belgium standards)

    Now after more then 20 years without the snooker (divorce and work related issues and grown-up kids) I'm picking up again with snooker..

    First problem to start again was to find a good cue and that's not so easy in Belgium.

    So I have ordered a cue at Greenbaize ,and they were very helpful with their advice and so I'm picking up tomorrow at a DHL servicepoint a Maximus legend plus..

    I hope ,I have made a good choice and we will see how I get along with the cue...

    I have played last week a few frames with a cue form the shelf and I did managed to make a 2 little breaks (20 and 23)

    After that i thought that I would be easy to picking up the game, but I was very wrong.. I was missing most of the times the easiest shots...

    Cue action was crap and long shots was even more crap... So, 2 feet on the ground and starting from 0..

    The next weeks I'm going to practice on my own and it will a long way to level up... priority is enjoying and then see how fast I can get more confidence and start potting balls again..

    thanks for reading and I hope to find here sometimes useful information...

    Hey welcome back to the game and can see you are starting back up for all the right reasons. It's a great game to fill some "me time" into the week! Great cue choice I'm sure you will be amazed at the quality of a Maximus cue.

    Welcome also to TSF. πŸ˜‰

                      lol

                      attachments are difficult to manage and are very limiting; instead you can use image-sharing sites, like ImgBB

                      On TSF we love "cue-porn"

                      How to add images to your TSF posts
                      You can use a free image-sharing site such as ImgBB, without registering (you can register for free), to upload your images, you may have to do the β€œnot a robot” checks quickly. There are other image sharing sites as well.
                      ImgBB.com
                      Click on "Start Uploading".
                      Browse to the file and select it, click Open.
                      Auto delete image - leave as "Don't autodelete".
                      Click "Upload".
                      Change "Embed Codes" to "BBCode full linked".
                      Hover over the code in the box, a "COPY" will appear, click this.
                      Go to your TSF post and paste.
                      You can repeat for multiple images in a single post.

                      Up the TSF! :snooker:
