I don't give a damn what Hohmann thinks about the sport of pool. JM :D

I will say one last thing on the subject: I have read the first book by Koehler. And it is full of interesting "observations." I have concluded that once you have been FAMILIARIZED with the FUNDAMENTALS of execution, strategy, and the physics of the game, all of the other mumbo jumbo can be...

How about the soft break issue? I think the Eurotour or something in Europe has adopted the rule that on the break three balls must cross the head string. Do you have anything to say about this issue with regard to the Swanee? JM :D

It was 192 players last January 27 - 28 2007. They paid out to 49th place. http://azbilliards.com/thepros/2000showtourney2007.cfm?eventnum=41 JM :D

Why would anyone who has spent serious time and effort and thought just give away their hard earned knowledge that in some respects is as good as gold? Furthermore, there is no secret to pool. You have a table a cue stick and some balls. You can watch other people play the game. Try it...

Here's one more scan. The Peter Vitalie Invitational was in 1987. You've seen the top 4 seeds. There are 12 more pictures in seed number order high to low: Allen Hopkins, Buddy Hall, Efren Reyes, Danny Medina, Wade Crane, Kim Davenport, Mike Lebron, Grady Mathews, Jim Reid, Howard Vickery...

Here are a few scans. I reduced their size and quality and stamped them because I didn't want to get any complaints of copyright infringement. Sorry guys and gals. Enjoy. JM :D

I emailed the Buddy Hall estore and requested a copy. The guy who runs the store said they had sold them but they ran out of them. I told him this should tell him something and that they should print another edition or reprint the last edition. Haven't heard a word since. I'm hoping. JM :D

Is there a market for old issues of Pool & Billiard Magazine? I'm holding a July 1988 issue with Earl Stricland and Mike Segal on the cover: Brunswick World Open. On the chair is a January 1996 issue with Gerda, Oliver, Efren, and Allison on the cover. Both are in nearly perfect condition...

It's been 37 years and I have never forgotten Squirrel. I am from Fremont, CA. In about 1970 Cole Dickson came in off the road. (He's from Fremont.) He rolled in town from Huston driving a faded green VW bug with a large dent in the front fender. Seems they hit a deer on the way. I was...
