If anyone does fly into Appleton, I’m like 30 minutes from that airport and 30 minutes from Lawsonia. Depending on timing, I can always pick you up to save on rental car.

They still serve the bacon wrapped tots?

So good

How sick would it be if people who don’t get off the waitlist end up buying up the majority of the public tee times this weekend? I’m just saying. For those deep on the waitlist, don’t let that stop you from coming up to Green Lake and partying.

Where’s the best place to fly into? Asking for a friend.

Ope just gonna keep this thread rolling along. Have a great Labor Day weekend. I hope it’s filled with many cold beers, brats, and clicked tongs.

Yes, and they still hit the table at roughly 12795627° internal temp

Scenes from my Airbnb this weekend, @papateeps what’s the play if you’re stripes and it’s your turn?

I’m not Teeps but I would aim to get a striped ball in one of the pockets

I’ll take this one @papateeps.

Safe one is a soft safety off the right side of the 12. Both balls should touch the rail softly and block the 8 from the cue ball. Hit too hard and the 12 comes off the rail and leaves some room for the cue ball to be kicked off the right rail.

If you’re feeling gutsy, right side of 12 but more to the middle. Slightly more pace. 12 goes into near side pocket. Cue ball goes off 1 rail with top right english and sets up the 10 for the corner.

Bottom english on the 13 to the back right corner. Then the 8 to the same pocket. Object ball is in front of the side pocket so not a big risk of scratching.

Edit: Difficult to tell how much (if at all) the 13 is blocked by the 8 to the side pocket.

Thanks for the real Ope Billiards champ for chiming in. Disrespectful that Joe would ask someone who @ReallyFatPat hasn’t even seen win a game.

Look at this amatewer. Trying to play soft safeties on an unknown table is asking for trouble.

Anime glass push up

No need to try all that. The 8 only goes into the side pocket it’s next to and up table. Both the bottom right corner and the bank are blocked. You can easily just hit the 13 and cue ball up table (assuming 13 doesn’t just go into the side by the 8, very well could on those buckets) to force them to make a hero shot, leaving you an easy out.

If 13 goes by: 13 stop shot, roll 12 in enough to have CB off the rail, 10 stop shot, straight in 8 to side.

If the 13 doesn’t go by, doesn’t a safety on the heavy side of the table force the CB closer to your object balls?
