Kickin it at Santa Clara Billiards

On Christmas Eve, I took some time to play pool with a friend at Santa Clara Billiards. It's a nice room with 30 9-foot pool tables. Most of them were Gandy Big G's, but there were a couple Olhausens too. Anyway, we just played a bunch of racks of 9 ball. I decided to kick at most balls when there was no direct route and made a couple of amazing shots, including the two below. I don't remember where the rest of the balls were scattered about, but each shot certainly required a kick. I had to review the two rail kick systems with him too. We played pretty even for most of the day, then decided to end it with a race to 5, which I ended up winning 5-1. But it was a great start to the holidays to spend some time with a friend I hadn't seen for a while.
