FINE TUNE SHOTS: When lining up shots, stroke across the top of the screen for faster movement, and across the bottom of the screen for fine movement!
» Higher Strokes = Faster Movement
» Lower Strokes = Slower Movement
Save Games: This application saves after every shot played. In tournament mode you have the opportunity to play a match again if you lose up until the Qtr finals where you must play and win straight through to the final.
