I was lucky to have won the contest that Mark Cantrill offered. And am I glad I won it - Thank you, Mark!
I would have purchased the one-pocket disk whether I won or not, but it's cool to see the others as well (8-ball; 9-ball; 14.1; & 1-pocket). I went right for the 1-pocket dvd once receiving it in the mail and loved it.
The format is really well laid out: Buddy & Nick both talk about the break while giving examples; they talk about specialty shots that they call "tricks of the trade"; They play racks against each other discussing what they are thinking to get insight of a champion's thought process; and offer some drills. It's very complete and easy to watch and understand - they are both so easy going they work very well together.
This format was also used in the 8-ball (the only other dvd I watched in its entirety so far). I also watched some of the 9-ball so I may get things confused, but I think the 8-ball dvd also included Buddy teaching his "clock" system and how he aims short rail banks. The point is they are really trying to teach stuff in these dvds and not just going through the motions.
The individual or the set would make a great Xmas gift to anyone that wants to improve their pool game, no matter what level.
Again, many thanks Mark. Happy holidays to you, Buddy & Nick and their families.
