I just Finished up in my league last night and would like to start getting in some of the local tournamants . To start with I would like to keep the driving distance not to far away till I get some experence and see how well I do . I live in Charlevoix and I just play in a small league with no...

I come to this site to learn more about the game of pool that I love to play . I do not have a lot of time to spend on the computer each day so all this crap with all the fighting needs to stop . I thought this was an instructional forum not a jerry springer one . I've learned a lot since I...

Just want to say thanks for the help Scott - After my last lesson with you I worked hard on improving my stroke . What really made the difference was using a close bridge , witch was hard for me because I've used an open bridge ever since I've been a kid . It took me about 2 months to get used...

I have been working on my draw shot for some time now and about 2 months ago something clicked and I can draw the ball back with no problem now . What is the best way to control how far back I want to draw my shot. Is it in my cue speed or in my cue tip placement (high or low)on the cue .

Most of the time I have a decent game and I also have streaches where my aiming and cue ball control is almost perfect . My problem is I go in these slumps where my aiming goes to hell and I can't figure it out . I've had lessons with Scott and I work on the mother drills a few times a week ...

Thanks I'll try it . I had someone else show me a break but I either get 1 or 2 balls in or I scratch .

I have been getting into playing 3 ball over the last few week . I've been watching where everyone else breaks and been moving all over myself . Anyone have any advise on a good break .

Played 3 ball for the frist time last week and I could not get a ball in on the break to save my life so I was just handing over my money. Any advise on break shots .

Sorry I wish I had some way of posting me shooting but I have no way to do so at this piont in time . I shot last night for about an hour and just worked on follow shots and noticed that I think I'm hitting to high on the cue ball . Scott I am finishing my shot but I do think I am gripping the...

For the past 2 weeks I have been having problems with follow shots that I want to bank and bring down the table or maybe go off 2 rails . I'm stroking the ball good on all my other shots ( draw and stop ). Just when I need to push the ball any distance I miss the shot . I'm going to start...

Yes they are 10-32 and I found someone that has the same table as mine and they think they have some extra , if not I will be trying to get a hold of you .

Thats been somthing I've been thinking about , as soon as I can come up with the money I'll give you a call

I just bought an old Valley table built around 1963 . I need some rail bolts 10-32 4 inches long . Would any one be able to help me find these .

With the old rules you would just loose a turn . I went out last night to play with our new rules. It threw me off my game so much I shot like crap . I went back to my old way of shooting thinking all the way threw my shot . Scott you broke my of that ounce I see I'm going to have to back to...

It seems like I should look at each shot at the percentage of me making it verse hiding the cue . The league is partners so hiding the cue when I can to get ball in hand for my partner is the way to go . With this in mind , cue ball control is even more important .
