had my first lesson today from CALVIN COKER today at Danny Ks. Calvin is out of orange country, Southern California. I have watched his videos, and knew that he does free lessons at west states billiards in Fullerton. so I hit him up and we met today. to say things went well would be a understatement.
he started me off by watching me hit a few balls, and started correcting flaws in my form and bridge. my backstroke was uneven, my draw stroke was too far away from the cue ball, ect. it was correcting that I needed. he answered all of my questions I had about this shot, about that shot, it was outstanding.
we spent the whole hour on the table, no talking or lectureing, we both were shooting balls, with him showing me and letting me shoot and shoot until I got it right.
I wanted 9 ball help, so the last part we did 9 ball runouts. it was great info. turns out when I tried to explain my runout pattern to him, I was completely doing it wrong, going the hard way instead of the easy path.
(now I know why all of the better players on this forum recommend taking lessons from a pro.)
I will see him for three more lessons in the upcoming weeks. can't say enough good things about CALVIN COKER.:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
