I got an 8 yr old boy who likes to sit and play video games.
I have been trying to get him to play pool with me, but he hasn't really seemed interested.
So, being the excellent parent I am, I told him last week that if he wants to keep playing his video games he has to learn how to play pool.
Ive been trying to keep it fun and easy so I've got him hitting a straight in shot with tne cb near one side pocket and the ob near the other and having him practice his stroke by hitting into the rail and trying to get the cb back to the cue tip.
So far he seems into it, which has me excited.
Anybody got any advice, drills, experience for fostering a kid's love and appreciation for the game?
