:thumbup:
It didn't start that way-but due to the generosity of Nick and his road partner Mark Cantrill-that's what it turned into.
Due to some complications, the scheduled group was not in attendence-except me. Most could attend tomorrow night. I couldn't.
Short version: It was great.
Nick helped me primarily with 1P. We 'played' an instrucional rack. I would suggest a shot. Nick would suggest a shot. I shot Nick's shot, and will try to remember it if I see it again. Although, I couldn't come up with my own shots-I did shoot his shots fairly much as designed. I thought I would embarrass my self badly and often. I did OK.
Nick also worked on banks with me. I will only say-Nick can bank. I like his approach.
Nick worked on 14.1 break shots with me. Good stuff.
Our lesson went long and Nick didn't look at his watch once.
His instruction was an effective mix of his knowledge and his ability to measure my ability to stay up. I lag.
Nick is a true gentleman. He's very personable. He made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. Relaxed enough to better absorb what was being offered. You know that this is NICK VARNER, but he has put you at ease. That's effective instruction. And pretty casual.
Long version:
It was great.
Thanks, Nick. and Mark.
Take care
ps: this was 2 hours ago, and I'm still stoked.:yeah:
