A very exciting end of Pétanque with my favourite Southern France player Ricky Bes

I agree with Wayne when you are up against a team that can shoot as they was doing the best tactic would have been to shoot the coch out of play from the start and if that is not in your comfort zone then point up to their boules so they are touching but closer to the to the coch.

A superb welcome to France for me
I was filming today in the Coupe de France and 3 French players of quite superb talent came up to me and thanked me for my footage. One in particular mentioned he has been suffering with shooting and my videos really helped him. He spoke pretty good English and made a huge thing of telling all present that I had “saved his game”. This was a remarkable thing for me. Especially as I have never been to this area or club

Squat pointing
So how to go about starting to point in the squat position, any advice? What technique you all using 🤔

I find in squat if you put your leading foot flat on the ground it will give you more stability but I also practice between flat and raised foot so far I find that with the stability the flat foot gives you the a more accurate throw . I know everyone I see do not do this they balance on there ball of their foot , just try it and see if it helps. Opinions would be appreciated thanks .

Match 72 690 at the beginning I found that the groves edges was very sharp and occasionally causing the boule to fly off at a angle but now it’s started to wear in a little it does not seem to happen as much. Next set I think will be plain
