Hey all, I just posted a video regarding choking, the science behind why it happens, and five methods on how to prevent it from happening. It took me some time to find, organize, and simplify the information, so I hope it helps your game under pressure!

Hey AZB community, Been working on something I think you'll find useful - a collection of 100 advanced positioning shots that I've been developing and testing over the past year. I'm calling it the Bullseye Billiards Precision Series. I'm doing a launch giveaway on Piazza's Friday Fight Night...

How beneficial do you think it would be to have a wearable device that gives instant feedback on your stroke? For example, you get a small vibration if you twist your wrist, or a sound if your backstroke was jerky. You could also store the data from a number of strokes to analyze your...

I had the honor of getting a lesson with Jerry Briesath last night, and he has a way of explaining concepts to make them very easy to learn. I particularly enjoyed his knowledge of positioning off of a ball in the jaws of a pocket (hangers). If you get an opportunity to take a lesson from Jerry...

Practice Cue Ball Positioning by Playing a Game (like Target Pool) I'd like to announce that I have created an instructional game similar to Target Pool, but quite different and IMO much better. It's called Bullseye Billiards, and here is a short video that describes it...
