Look I was away from pool for awhile and got back into it and realized how much I love it. I started to learn straight pool but my game was off I knew it was something with my fundamentals but I couldn’t figure it out. I contacted Mark Wilson and after a couple of weeks and working over time I went out to take a lesson with Mark. I won’t go into what he does except to say there are 3 videos of what he does on YouTube. Mark video recorded me( dam camera adds 40 pounds) and he showed me what I do well and what I didn’t do well. Then explained these things are fixable and he explained what we where going to do to fix them. I received instant feed back when I did something right and wrong. ,then Mark told me this what I did wrong and here is what you need to do to fix that. Mark worked with me for about 6 hours straight without a break then we went to eat and talked a bit . Then we went back to the pool hall which is filled with old posters of the greats and pics on the walls I loved it. After the lesson was done we talked a bit I bought his book which is great . Mark really helped me out and straighten a few things out for me. Mark wasn’t just about the money he really loves pool and loves teaching it. I’m not saying pros can’t teach you some can and they sure can teach you the games intricate moves like in straight pool but for fundamentals save your time and go to someone that breaks down your fundamentals step by step . By the way Mark can also teach intricate stuff like safeties in straight pool . If this helps someone great.
