    Two Photos: Cole Dickson and Keith Thompson

    Yep, that's Cole. I first met his in 1987, well after this pic was taken. He was escorting and stake horsing Efren Reyes. They stopped into California Billiards seeking money games, no surprise. That's when it was on Steven's Creek Blvd. in San Jose, CA. Harry Sims was the house pro there...

    COLE DICKSON - My friend for eternity

    It was an honor meeting Cole Dickson in 1987 at California Billiards when it was on Steven's Creek Blvd. in San Jose, CA. He was escorting and stake horsing the GOAT Efren Reyes. He had a big personality, and exuded the hustler vibe.

    AI functions for live streaming

    Agreed, that is something others have suggested as well. We have many suggestions going in the hopper now. Eventually, the AI will learn more and faster than us, and it will develop many relevant and useful applications. Other companies that are advertising AI are really just adapted AR. As...

    anyone know billy ray?

    Hi Bob, I never knew his name, but he taught me jump shots at Saratoga Lanes in the 80's. He had a few $ matches with Bill Brown there too, but I was the only other one observing. His main game was 9 ball, and very flashy style. I only knew him as Billy Ray Jr., and was told his father was...

    Sad news- Harry Sims- 3-Cushion champ

    I know this thread is old, but it is appropriate that I come full circle with Harry. I first met Harry in 1986 at California Billiards when it was on Steven's Creek Blvd in San Jose, CA. I was introduced to him by Bill Brown, who was my instructor. I was just 19, and had no $ or record to...

    Shane Van Boening aiming system -WOW!!

    Hello Mr. Wiley. I've heard good things about you from our mutual friend Mary in TX. I have not seen SVB's system, but heard only a little. In any event, I learned my Sighted Ferrule Aiming back in the 80's from my instructor. I went on to incorporate it in what I now call the Lucky Loser...

    Sighted Ferrule Aiming System

    I found your response respectful, well balanced, and useful. And, I agree this presentation is aimed at "beginners", and that is the nature of most PoolDawg articles. One of the important things I've learned from your and others comments is that I need to improve the charisma and succinctness...

    Sighted Ferrule Aiming System

    Thank you. I do not claim that Sighted Ferrule Aiming is new, and in fact ascribe my learning of it to Bill Brown in the 1980's (read the article). I do claim that the Lucky Loser Composite Aiming System is. Also, within the Sighted Ferrule Aiming article and video are new aspects in how to...

As such, I wanted to be sure when developing this that some unique innovative aspects...
