Heh...I'd laugh if I end up being the only one there...getting hands on training for four hours from E. Strickland and J. Archer.

Seriously though, I'll spread the word at my pool hall.
Thanks, I spoke to the APA people here in AZ and they have had the info for a few days they said they will be sending it out this weekend so I think by sunday or Monday we will have more involved.

i dont get that, if it was happening anywhere within 3 hours of me id so be there. Hell id drive 3 or 4 hours just to spend some table time with one of them.
I know I had a great chat today with some people who are avid players/fans And they all told me the same thing.
 
i had completely forgotten, but i actually have tried to get up with both those guys before for lessons and couldnt. Earl was living down in greensboro somewhere last year (hour south of me) and i left messages for him down there and on here when he had a friend ( i think it was his gf) posting up for him. Never heard from him and then a couple years ago i was in atlanta for business and left messages trying to get up with archer while i was there.

to get them both in the same room would be awesome, best of both worlds.....archer meticulous to the point of ocd.......and strickland as freewheeling as you can possibly get lol

Schedules cam confict and make this kind of thing hard. Well I got em, I think if it is something you are really wanting to do get yourself on a plane. I have said it before but for the price even with airfare and hotel; this is as inexpensive as it gets for what you will get. Either way, thank you for your enthusiasm toward this event. You have my email at the start of this thread,
Mark,
 
Short drive from Albuquerque and El Paso

I spoke to a couple of friends from both Abq and El Paso... they are going to spread the word...

Thanks, it may happen in KC we shall see.
 
This has got to be one of the greatest opportunities for a player to learn from two of the very best players in the history of the game.

The price is exceptionally low. If this was 1960, this event is the same as having an opportunity of being in the same room learning from Crane and Mosconi for a mere $30.

You have the opportunity to receive priceless information from 2 guys that have made it to the top of the mountain of the pool world - multiple times.

$200 for 4 hours with both of them? This is a steal - and this should fill up fast.

Let's show Johnny and Earl that doing these clinics is worth their while, and perhaps they will continue doing this and make it your area as well.

Just remember, if there is a demand for it, it will continue.

Mark has done and awesome job of putting this together - do not allow his efforts to go to waste. He is working his tail off for both the players and the fans and this deal is outrageously incredible!

WOW, thanks man. I could not have said it any better myself. As I said before, I have been told that the APA members here in Phoenix will all be getting an email this weekend sometime and so I hope that that will fill up the school. Who know we shall see. Thanks again for your support.
 
Johnny and Earl working together is itself worth the price of admission. :D

One thing for sure, this looks like a golden opportunity to be had by all. I hope somebody has the good sense to take pictures and provide a DETAILED update on this forum. :)

I have an idea for after the school. I'll take Earl and you take Johnny Scotch doubles, race to 7 for $1,000. Just tell me what you think for now, I am not commiting yet just wonder if you would be in. I could be making a mistake here as I am a weak 4.
 
This is one of the reasons that I make great attempts to get a pool lesson from many professional pool players when they pass through my town or I when I see them at pool tournaments.

I try to always be ready to get a pool lesson when anyone is traveling through town. Most of the time, I like to get only an hour or two of time from traveling professionals.

It is economical, efficient, convenient and helps the professional players cover their nut when traveling.

The logistics of going to a pool school can be taxing. Sometimes it simply isn't convenient time wise. Maybe you have work or family stuff that prohibits you from traveling. Maybe you don't have the funds at that time or maybe you just don't have the inclination and can't justify it, period.

The sad truth is that many people just don't want to spend the money on pool lessons. Some say they want to take pool lessons but the proof is in the taking of the lessons, not the talking about taking them. Most of the time, I just hear excuses for not taking lessons. Legitimate reasons for not taking lessons are rare and are limited to a few finite things, especially if you are a student of the game.

So which is it:

Are you a student of the game? (who takes pool lessons)

Or, are you simply a pool groupie?;) (who simply talks about taking pool lessons)
