Hi! I'm Shayla and I live in the
Austin, TX area. I've been playing pool since 1993. I met a friend in
college who was real good and I've been hooked on the game ever since.
At first I only played socially and only played 8-ball. It wasn't until
my first Hunter Event that I started playing 9-ball. (I still can't
believe I wasted all that time playing 8-ball!) After my first Hunter,
I was hooked! I loved the competition and decided to put more effort
into my game. I always thought I played pretty good pool for a girl,
but I quickly realized I was so wrong after that first Hunter Event.
There were so many women players and they all played incredible! I
wanted to be part of that group! Here it is 9 years later from the
first day I picked up a cue, and I realize I still have a long way to
go!
I love living in Austin and playing pool in Austin. The women players
in Austin are a bunch of great women that happen to play some great
pool! I've made a lot of wonderful friendships with the women from the
Hunter
Tour. I still don't know how I got along without them!
The Hunter Tour is a great competitive amateur tour, and I've had many
great years playing in this tour, and hopefully many more years to come!
