    Virtual pool lessons

    Did I miss something. Last I heard, according to Beeler, the powers that be encouraged him to advertise his services for pay on the main forum. If it's good enough for him and double o it should be good enough for you. At least you're actually a legitimate instructor. ** I haven't really...

    The 'L' drill in pocket.

    Can't wait. Then again, hope no one's holding their breath. Suffocation is no joke. Btw double o, how'd the clinic go?

    APA membership application questions?

    Well, you're well aware the APA isn't much interested in being fair and equitable.

    Another question for the English gurus.

    You have a nice time. Hopefully you'll come back refreshed and be able to give thoughtful, coherent answers to all our questions.

    Another question for the English gurus.

    Not to pry but are you heading out on a mission. If so could you make the video before you go? Most living people have never seen Sir Matt play pool. What if, heaven forbid, things go wrong and you don't make it back? I realize it's unlikely but there's always that tiny percentage of...

    Another question for the English gurus.

    Very little of what you write is factual and that is a fact. Earl Strickland, Mike Sigel, Nick Varner, Johnny Archer, none of them won 200 "Professional" tournaments. Again, I'm not knocking TK. He was a good mid level pro in his day who got on a roll for a bit and won a big tournament...

    Another question for the English gurus.

    They now have a drug that helps with memory loss. Don't know the name of it but should be an easy search. Apparently you forgot about your original statement on the subject which was: TK has won nearly 200 professional tournaments, been ranked as high as 4th worldwide, and has defeated...

    My reply was to Island Drive. Has nothing to do with you.

    Another question for the English gurus.

    Don't have a clue, I don't play pool. All I can do is refer you to the above post that you referenced. Check paragraph three. I don't know or care if you use parallel, pivot, backhand, front hand, or maybe even backwards english. My point is very clear, if the tip contacts the CB off...

    Another question for the English gurus.

    Well double o, all I can say is, if he's married I hope his wife has a good job because if they have to survive on his pool earnings they better be on a starvation diet. Before you stick foot in mouth again, realize that it's very easy to check his pool earnings going back 30 years. HAND...

    Another question for the English gurus.

    Here we are again. So now it's 200 tournaments instead of 200 "Professional" tournaments as you originally stated. Just a little word slip once again? Keep making incorrect statements and I will continue to hang you with your own words. As for the zoom, it's not allowed at the library and...

    Another question for the English gurus.

    Here's a novel idea. How about getting TK to come on here and explain "backwards english" for us seeing as you are unable to do so. Maybe he could also list his 200 "Professional" tournament wins. Another one of your incorrect statements. Before you start, that's not a knock on him, it's...

    Another question for the English gurus.

    Where exactly is your local hall. I called 3 places in the Gainesville area and none of them knew who you are. What a surprise.

    English gurus, need help with backwards ( not backhand) english. Up

    Well obviously it can't be a "straight" answer. It has to have some spin on it. Which spin and what side and what direction is the tip coming from are the eternal questions that double o will reveal in due time. Have faith. Correct. That was an excerpt from here...

    Another question for the English gurus.

    " English mistake #8 is striking upon by accident the mysterious sidespin phenomenon called “backwards english”. If a dash of twisting movement is applied with your cue stick very late during a left english stroke, so that it feels as if you are moving the cue tip left after it first strikes the...

    Another question for the English gurus.

    Unfortunately you are incorrect again. As usual you left out some important information. Seems to be a common theme in your world class teaching. Call a friend, PJ could probably help you out if you ask nicely.

    Another question for the English gurus.

    "For example, when striking with parallel left english, the center of my cue tip effects impact with the cue ball. If you hit left pivot english instead, the right edge only of the tip hits the cue ball, and often, squirts the cue to the right, cutting the object ball left." You are making a...

    Tuck and Roll

    The video is simply a way of (what a lot of old timers call coming across the face of the ball) applying english using little subtle hand or wrist movements. It's been going on since Hector was a pup. What's really baffling is it doesn't correlate with your OP. That seemed to be a way one...

    Tuck and Roll

    What an interesting video. Bit simplistic but interesting. Good for a guy like me who has limited pool knowledge.
