Description

These drills and exercises are based on the concept of progressive advancement. Start with an easy setup, prove that you can make that 4 out of 5 times, and then make the shot slightly more difficult. Keep on pushing the limits as far as your skills can be pushed. Bring this to the table along with your paper reinforcement rings (donuts) and you are ready to improve yourself. Study this material in two steps. 1. THINK FIRST. In the comfort of your favorite easy-chair or recliner, review each table layout and thoughtfully consider the ball positions. Consider what you would have to do. The table layout might require different shooting speeds (slow, medium, fast), different spins (draw, follow, side/English). Make a list of your practice requirements for your current skills and identify the exercises necessary. 2. OWN THE SHOTS. Take the book to the practice table with your donuts and work on owning the shots you selected. Pencil in where your Comfort and Chaos Zones meet on the exercise (and mark the date). Over time, you may need to buy a second book just to keep track of all your notations. ;-) This is true table knowledge that will enhance your abilities as the Intelligent Shooter. These layouts, when diligently practiced, ensure that you will improve, consistently and rapidly.

A good book of drills... The diagrams can be a little confusing, though...

  • You will not be bored. You will be challenged
Do the exercises properly and jump around from one exercise to another. You will not be bored. You will be challenged. Use it right and you will challenge any opponent. Money well spent.

  • Terribly written and explained
The very first sentence in the book is a negative. His descriptions are terrible or incomplete. On page 6 he talking about moving the "CB back 1/2 D" with no explanation on what the "1/2 D" means . On page 8 he says "3,4,5,6, D to Pocket". On his diagram below that, there is no "3, 4, 5, or 6" and the diagram doesn't have any of the balls aimed into the "D" pocket. Perhaps this means something to the author, but not to the readers! I'll look over some of the drills before I launch the book into pocket "T" for trash can ... show more

  • Not bad- love the diagrams.
The book is really not as bad as some of the reviews I read. It has easy diagrams to use as drills and exercise. I haven’t read through out the book about the written lessons. I’m strictly speaking of just following the pictures diagrams. In the back of book it has games to practice your skills 👍🏼 Also has Blank Table Layouts in the back of book to use for personal diagrams to add to book such as maybe using to show the Sid System numbers in a table or for Kick systems. ... show more
