Dr Dave..... MY HERO! Thanks for your dedicated research and hard work.
I've learned more from Dave than from anybody else, and am learning from him to this day. His website: Billiards and Pool Principles, Techniques, Resources (AKA Dr. Dave's Multimedia Poolopedia) is easily the only pool/billiards information resource in its class for size or quality, and it continues to grow both ways. [One word, Dave: back ups.]
Add to that his growing schedule of instructional events and commercial products and his "retirement" is sounding more busy, not less - lucky us!
AzB Hall of Famer, if ever there was one.
Thanks, Dave.

I could be mistaken but I don't think dave is in a rush to be in the AZB hall of fame.

??I could be mistaken but I don't think dave is in a rush to be in the AZB hall of fame.
I thought he made it up also. Regardless, being retired, I am certainly in no rush to get anywhere. However, to be clear, I retired from my "day job" (university professor), but I have not retired from my passion for pool. I plan to continue to work hard on my pool stuff for a long time to come.Is there an AzB Hall of Fame?I could be mistaken but I don't think dave is in a rush to be in the AZB hall of fame.

Couldn't agree with you more Dean. Well said and deserved. Thanks Dr. Dave!for all you have done to make Az a fun place
rather a place where at least one person makes helpful comments, and provides
wonderful video instruction available
I have played pool 65 years with some of the greatest players to ever play and never really got any good,I never even heard of the things you descibe and demonstrate on here regularly
I am in awe of the things you regularly make available
Thank you for all you do,I have never seen anything like this
Dean
Ditto! They were the true pool physics pioneers (along with Coriolis, the original pool physics pioneer). I have certainly learned a lot from them over the years.I don't want to steal any of Dave's thunder, so here's just a tip o' the hat to my other personal "pool scientist" heroes, Bob Jewett, Mike Page and Ron Shepard.
Mike and Ron don't post as much as they used to (haven't heard from Ron since RSB days), but along with Bob and Dave they're still the Four Tops of pool science in my book.
Thanks to you guys too,
