Diege...Instead of an expense, you have to look at it as an investment, that will pay many dividends for years to come. Along with an extensive video analysis (that will teach you who you are and what you do...if you don't already know), and recorded dvds of your entire lesson, as well as a 30 page workbook, that's all about you as a player. Something elusive, like an accurate and repeatable stroke, is worth whatever someone will pay for it. What I charge is extraordinarily reasonable, when you take into account what you get vs what you paid. When you add in that I'll come TO YOU, that makes it pretty damn cheap, if you ask me!
Of all of the many SPF instructors I have had the pleasure of helping train, and working with in the field, Jim Baker is one of our best. Aside from being an excellent player, he is a superior instructor for students of any skill level. He's also heavily involved with Mark Wilson's intercollegiate billiards league, helping get things set up at MIssouri S & T, so if anyone can help him out, please reach out and contact him.

Will do Scott. I am only an APA 4 (and should probably be a 3) so I hope it wouldn't be a waste of your time. You also may be a bit expensive (I'm a State employee and the sole parent of 2 kids in college) but am open to it if it would be worth it (based on my low skill level not your teaching ability) and not overkill for me.
