MD Instructor It is down the road, but the National Billiard Academy is planning on doing a seminar at Champion's in Frederick in March. No dates yet but check Poolclinics.com for details.

Staying Down I have a different slant on fundamental flaws that I learned from Nic Barrow that might help you. Every fundamental flaw symptom is your body and mind trying to help you and telling you something. Jumping up or looking at that shot might mean that you were never 100 per cent sure...

Tom's Passing/Atlanta Seminar I am truly shocked and saddened by this terrible news. My prayers and condolences to Candace and Tom's family. Rest in Peace Buddy! For those students scheduled for our upcoming Atlanta classes, we will be continuing the same program with the same instructors...

Relaxation One of the keys I've found to smoothness was relaxation. Making sure you are breathing deeply, slowing down your eyes and body movement. How many times during a run out have you moved faster and faster until the next miss on the next to last ball? Relax by making sure you take a...

Traveling Instructor I think you are reading more into this than is there. I know Scott travels to Texas. That's it. I know Randy G is in Texas as well. How does that imply anything other than my limited knowledge of who is in or goes to Texas? Please don't reply as I don't plan on getting...

Traveler Billiard Instructor Wise words Fran! Thank you.

Mechanics Question You might want to look at the option of using the vertical axis to maximize your chance of pocketing the ball and using stun, follow or draw to get a position that you can work from. Anytime that you are using spin and speed you have all sorts of variables that are hard to...

It's not brain surgery If I had to get an operation, do I chose a doctor that went to medical school and got professional instruction, or go to a doctor that talked to a lot of doctors. I think the answer is evident. Gambling teaches you how to gamble. You learn how to match up, how to...

Videos from the 80's Thank you Dennis! So much fun to watch.

Patterns are driven by doing what is easiest. Look for balls that lead to other balls without having to do much with your cue ball. Working backwards from the 8, find a ball that leads to the 8 that doesn't take any or much cue ball work, then find a ball that leads to this ball that doesn't...

Awesome! Thank you for showing us the spirit of pool and billiards. You are an inspiration to me! Props!

Walking around Great run and nice game. I think you would make more balls and play better if you walked around more. You just get right down and shoot without looking at other options. Once you fell straight on the 4 ball to the side pocket that would have led to a stop and roll pattern...

Lessons Scott Lee travels and is one of the best in the business.

The Towel Please listen to Scott! Blindly patching things when you don't know exactly what is wrong will only frustrate you.

Drawing the Cue Ball I've got to be the dumbest human on the planet. When I want to learn how to draw pool tables with Adobe Illustrator, I found a tutor and took some lessons. When I needed to learn how to use my new camera to take videos of pool players, I took a three day course in using...
