Jim Vaccaro sent in the Week #1 standings. They play at Saddlebrook on Mondays from 10AM-4PM. Looks like Don Feeney, Bill Gentry, Conrad Gusfa and Bob Kubinec are all tied for 1st place.
Information about the league and complete standings can be found on their page here…
Some comments about 3-cushion billiards from Conrad Gusfa:
Preacher, ( Don Feeney) is still the best 3 cushion billiard player in The Villages and is 97 years old. Unbelievable!
Stop by to see some matches at Saddlebrook. Besides Preacher, watch talented players like Bill Gentry, Mike Fitzgerald, Bob Kubinec, Roger Pollock and Conrad compete to dethrone “The Preacher.”
See newcomers like Tom Mayo and Lonnie Dutton experience their first competition after beginning tutorials with Conrad and Mike Fitzgerald.
Carom Billiards is the Godfather of all “pool and snooker games.” That is a historical fact!
Enjoy and experience your pocket pool roots and visit these players on Mondays starting at 10 AM who also play pool but realize and recognize that if you can play pool that’s good and many of us do. But if you can play pool and billiards, you are exceptional!
Of course, if you want to be a better pocket pool player, carom billiards will take you there but how can you get there without experiencing it?
Look at it this way. The carom billiards players I mentioned are great pool players …Preacher, Bill Gentry, Mike Fitz.
“Wake up and smell the coffee.” These people are champions!.
Carom Billiards is a major contributor.
Do it!
Conrad gives free tutorials for seriously interested Villagers.
He says pool players are “incomplete” unless they know billiards.”
So does Preacher.
