Eagle
Award for winning a title at the ABC tournament. Can be won for any of the several events held there.

Early Timing
The ball is moving ahead of the feet and makes it difficult to create leverage on the ball. Fairly rare problem as opposed to late timing which is common.

Entry Angle
The angle created by a hook ball into the pocket the greater the hook the more angle generated. Studies have proven high entry angles create more strikes. The challenge is keeping enough accuracy to be consistant.

Extra Frame
When marking in the tenth frame you are rewarded with an extra frame.
