Best Instructor in Chicago land area?

[cluelesscuer]

Any names?

 

[EtDM]

He's not Chicagoland close, but I had a single day of instruction from Jerry Briesath in Madison, WI that definitely bumped my level of play up a notch. I wouldn't rule out a 2 1/2 hour drive for quality instruction.

Any names?

Bobby Hunter was hanging around the Chicago area. I don't know if he's still around, but if he is I'd have to put him near the very top of the list. Call Red Shoes and talk to Monsignor Lavin, he'll know.

Lou Figueroa

 

[Joe_Jaguar]

Any names?

Can try Larry Schwartz or George Fels. Both were pretty reasonable rates last I checked.

When I saw this thread, Freddy was the first person I thought of, but I didn't want to throw his name out there is he wasn't giving lessons anymore.

Depending on what you're looking for out of your lessons, I'd definitely go see The Beard!

For One Pocket lessons only, the answer without a doubt is Bruce Perry - and I believe that George Fels would also attest to this recommendation...if you are interested in One Pocket lessons, (or for that matter, anyone else reading this) you can pm me for contact info.

What about that guy that knows more about pool than any living human being that lives in Chicago. He got banned from the forums a while back. Some people claim he is back with a new identity but I don't believe it.

Hey Joey....And as a matter of fact, that gentleman of whom you speak, took One Pocket lessons for 2 years from Bruce Perry - and as hard as this is to believe..he actually listened to him and didn't debate, disagree with, or argue against what he was being shown/taught........
