Start with an easy setup. When you comfortable, increase the difficulty factor. Use these problems in two ways. At home, review an exercise. Consider how you must play the shot. Then, imagine the ball positions on the table in your head. Carefully and thoughtfully play the shot. Consider variations on the problem. Can you do this at different speeds? What are the consequences? Make notes as you think about different ideas - assumptions, possibilities, and variations. Then, at the practice table, select the problem you want to fix. Put down the paper reinforcement rings. Set up the ball configuration. Practice the configuration until it is easy, then try the exercise with left and right side spin on the ball – and at different speeds. Observe the results, and make adjustments. ++++++++++++ How to become the intelligent shooter!! You must decide to become a competitive player.

Download or read book The Science of Pocket Billiards written by Jack H. Koehler and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE SCIENCE OF POCKET BILLIARDS covers the complete spectrum from the basic fundamentals to the most complex concepts in pocket billiards. There are no opinions, no fairy tales from dead pool players, and no Voodoo explanations that violate the laws of physics in this book. Every concept from stance and stroke to cue-stick induced deflection is examined from a technical point of view. Take english as an example concept. English is examined and analyzed in minute detail. There is inside english, outside english, draw english, follow english, running english, and reverse english. Then add to that collision-induced english, transferred english, and cushion-induced english. It may sound like the concept of english is a chaotic mess but it all comes together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Bank shots are a problem for everyone and especially so for the casual pool player. The brain of each individual is wired a little differently. A banking system that works best for one person may not work for another individual. This book presents eight different banking systems; try them all to determine which system works best for you. POOL & BILLIARD MAGAZINE has the largest circulation of any monthly pool magazine in the world. In their August 1994 issue they did an evaluation of all the available instructional books and video tapes. They concluded, "Subjectively and, I hope, objectively, I think "THE SCIENCE OF POCKET BILLIARDS" by Jack H. Koehler is the best." THE SCIENCE OF POCKET BILLIARDS covers the entire spectrum from the basics to the most advanced concepts in pool. The occasional player can skim through the book and learn enough for a lifetime of casual play while an avid pool enthusiast can study this book for months, or even years, and continue to gain knowledge. 8 1/2 X 11, 253 pages (Paperback only)
