playing with inside is difficult

Tiger actually performed more consistently with Hank Haney than with Butch. In Hank's book he meticulously documents this with ALL the pertinent information regarding Tiger's tournament performances.

Hank's book about working with Tiger is one of the best books I've ever read, it doesn't "sugar coat" Hank's experience with coaching {arguably} the greatest athlete the world has ever known.

Yeah I suppose you know more about golf than Lee Trevino. Your ego defies description.

Actually Hank lists all the tournaments Tiger played in and lets the reader decide. Ironically, Johnny Archer called me and said Hank's book 'The Big Miss' was the first book Johnny had ever read "cover to cover" - he was raving about how good the book was and how it inspired him.

Hank is an incredible teacher, far better than Butch in many people's minds. Butch is a really nice guy and was in Tiger's corner, however, Hanks knowledge of the golf swing is vastly superior to Butches. I believe Butch would agree.

Hank also separated himself from other instructors by producing the #1 show on THE GOLF CHANNEL called "THE HANEY PROJECT" which was a fun show about Hank working on the swings of some interesting celebrities.....it was all in fun, and also #1.

"Actually, Thorsten Hohmann called me and said the book sucked." See? Two can play at that game. You say Johnny called you, and I say that Thorsten called me. You and I can say anything we want. Doesn't make it true.

All you did was add more "crackerjack prize" meme images, and I'm beginning to think that's the only reason why you opt to respond. You really didn't add anything of value in your response. Oh, I get it; I don't have "real eyes" to see the value. Yup, my crystal ball is pretty spot on on these things.

"how much has your dad made this year so far"......he said "6 or 7".

No, I didn't say that, although I went to school with one of his sons (Ricky) and coincidentally when I joined STONEBRIDGE COUNTRY CLUB Hank Haney was the Pro and Lee Trevino's other son (Tony) was one of the cart boys.

I played with him in a foursome one day and he was ask "how much has your dad made this year so far"......he said "6 or 7"......I thought "thousand" and ask him "who is your dad".....in which he replied "Lee Trevino"......small world isn't it.

Hank Haney is the real deal ladies and gentleman....of course because I say so there will be several "hank haters" rise up from the depths of "an unplayable lie".

The odds of Thorsen reading that book cover to cover is 0%.

The difference is I'm telling the truth, anyone can ask Johnny Archer, many of us are friends with him on Face Book.

The odds of Thorsen reading that book cover to cover is 0%.

Your point is invalid. 'The Game is the Teacher'

His hand/'eye coordination may even be better than the guy who invented TOI

Tiger's training regiment is what made him the world's greatest athlete for a period of time.

His hand/'eye coordination may even be better than the guy who invented TOI.....that's an "Inside" Joke. :groucho:

Ummm, no. Not even in the top 100, but then again, I'm a little biased about guys who walk to each hole, and have others carry their equipment for them :rolleyes:

Aren't you the salesman rather than inventor?

I use inside for all sorts of things. Sometimes on almost straight shots to slightly change the rebound angle with draw or a stop shot.

using any type of spin is no more difficult than any other type of spin with the exception of softer/longer shots...

That ain't true at all. Inside is more difficult than outside.

The richest: maybe. The most prolific golfer of all time: probably. The worlds greatest athlete. Not even close by a long shot. Tiger Woods would puke his guts out on a daily basis if he had to do the same training as world class Olympic athletes. (no, we are not talking about "curlers" ;)
 
The biggest problem I find with inside english is that terrible desire to 'steer' the cue instead of just using a straight stroke and following straight through. And this is worse when the shot really counts. Stick with short range shots at first till you really get a good feel for it, and only go for longer ones when your confidence tells you it's a good move. If your confidence says 'this ain't such a great idea', chances are it won't end well. :D

I might also add, playing straight pool and using II for behind the rack position shots will help your game way more than trying to learn this stuff playing 9 ball where the shots are more occasional, and generally longer.
 
Between the swimming, weight training, running, swimming, weight training, stretching

Actually Tiger did that type of training for many years....Hank told me exactly what he did and there's very few athletes that could keep this up for as many years as Tiger. Between the swimming, weight training, running, swimming, weight training, stretching, and oh, yeah, he also played 36-45 holes of golf between hitting ball, chipping, putting, pitching, and of course eating.

It's all in the book 'The Big Miss' - agree, or not, this book is was written about training "one" of the greatest athletes in history.

yes, because we know a golf instructor knows about athletes that train for the Olympics, and that Tigers training was just as brutal.

My god, after working out he went out and played 36 holes of golf... most folks around these parts would LOVE to have the time to do that......

Watch it, RJ! You have to understand that golfers are the ELITE of athletes, right? Come on, man, keep up. BUDS (Navy Seal training) is nothing for these golfers -- they do that regimen "every day"!

Jaden has it right (in my opinion). The only reason most are afraid of inside is because they are almost always more comfortable using outside. If they were to play 3-Cushion Billiards for a while they would get so used to using inside as "natural running English" it would be second nature on a pooltable.

Inside or outside doesn't matter. Use what you need to pocket the ball and put the cueball where you want it.

Cutting a ball to the left or right is also the same.

Reality is the teacher ;)
 
adds unneeded difficulty

Centerline of the cue ball, angles and speed. That takes care of pocketing and position over 90% of the time. Planning an entire pattern before you start lets you get the cue ball close to the object ball those few times you do have to juice the cue ball. 'Bout all you need to know about pool. Keeping pool simple doesn't leave much to promote but simple beats fancy way more often than not!

Many years ago(insert a little Twilight Zone theme music here) a road player scouted me for three nights. I never played a fancy shot those three nights; I never ran a table. He decided he didn't want any part of what I had to offer.
