These are drills that sharpen your skills while correcting your weaknesses. They designed to fine-tune your focus and playing consistency. The Book is fully illustrated with a spiral-binding so it sits on the rail. The DVD is TV broadcast quality so you can see the ball speed, the pace and the techniques of how each drill is completed. It doesnt teach you how to play pool. Its just Pro Skill Drills from cover to cover. Pro Skill Drills Vol. 2, has 52 Practice Session Drills for all pool disciplines. Like volume 1, these are intermediate to advanced level drills. However, volume 2 includes many complex 8 and 9 ball pattern drills to build your cue ball speed and position play skills. But like volume 1, each page has the schematic designed table so you know exactly how to set up each drill and the TV quality DVD shows all the drills being shot. Also like volume 1, many of the drills have both the intermediate and professional levels, so youll benefit from this for years to come. Pro Skill Drills Vol. 3, is The Practice Session Record Keeper. Its a book only, No DVD. Youll use this for keeping a journal of your practice session activities like your goals and different shot making improvements. It tracks the personal statistics of your practice. It also shows you problems youre having before they come up in a game. The book is over 150 pages of blank table grids with stat journal pages and more. Volume 3 is for the more serious minded pool player who likes competing and makes time to practice to get better. Pro Skill Drills Vol. 4, is called The 27 Practicing Secrets of the Pros. This is a two hour segment from a weekend pool school. This is a DVD only and actually goes perfectly with the volume 3 book. The DVD goes into full detail about how to structure your pre-practice, practice, and post-practice routines so you effectively build up every area of your game. If you ever want to get yourself trained for the physical, mental and emotional demands of Pro competition, this is it-or at the very least, youll learn to practice better and form a good game plan at the level you want it at. Pro Skill Drills Vol. 5, teaches you 55 Safety Play Shots. This Book and DVD are the number 1 best sellers on Safety Shot Drills in pool! Let me ask you: Do you ever fall short because of your defensive game? Have you ever lost a game or match because your safety shot didnt work and you gave your opponent the opportunity to run out and win? Practicing these safety drills will teach you all the defensive skills you need to keep control of the table and think your way out of tough situations and get YOU ball-in-hand. We all need this volumeright? Pro Skill Drills Vol. 6, is a Book and DVD that contains 54 ONE POCKET Practice Session Drills! These are the most basic to advanced shots you need to play One Pocket. World Champion Nick Varner says, These are the shots that come up over and over, game after game. Plus, the DVD has a bonus section on how to think when youre playing through the rack. If you play One Pocket, this is a must have. These can boost your Pro Skill Drills sales and commissions. The 3 most often asked questions about Pro Skill Drills: Q-1. Do I need to start with or get Volume 1 first. A-1. No. Each volume is self contained. And Volume 2 is 52 different drills in addition to the 54 drills in volume 1. Volume 2 is not the next advanced level. You wont have to wait till youre good enough to use volume 2. Youll want to get volume 1 and 2 at the same time, so you have all 106 practice drills. Plus remember that many of the drills have two levels; the intermediate level and the pro level. Q-2. Whats the difference between the Book and DVD? Or (something about getting or needing one without the other) A-2. Theyre like gloves. While theyre different and the same, they work the best when you have both of them. The tables in the book have a schematic design to show you exactly where to place the balls on the table. Plus the text tells you how to shoot the drill, where to hit the cue ball, cue stick elevation and what skill the drill is building. The DVD, on the other hand, allows you to watch how the drill is shot. You get to see the different cue ball speeds, the cue balls path and the overall pace of how the drill can be executed. Plus the DVD is fully narrated, giving you lots of added instruction about the drill. http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-7257/pro_skill_drills_vol_1_has_54_practice_session_drills_for_all_games_these_are_drills_that_sharpen.html http://www.billiardssupply.net/images/products/Pro Skill Drills DVDBook Set.jpg http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-7257/pro_skill_drills_vol_1_has_54_practice_session_drills_for_all_games_these_are_drills_that_sharpen.html This lower cost 59 page book on a CD-ROM contains some extracts from one discipline of the "Artistic Pool Manual" and also contains new information.

Lee shows wannabe winners of every level how to compete intelligently, lose gracefully, win frequently, stay focused, and achieve goals in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. This hip, engaging guide to the game is designed to turn you into the player to beat--in basements, bar leagues, local tournaments, and beyond. "Jeanette Lee is a natural, like Wayne Gretzky, Babe Ruth, or Michael Jordan. You may not become a world champion pool player, but this book will help you be the best player you can be." --David Brenner, comedian/actor/owner of Amsterdam Billiard Clubs of NYC. Jeanette Lee, pool player extraordinaire, is also a model, an actress, and a motivational speaker. She has earned Player of the Year honors from both Billiards Digest and Pool and Billiard magazine. http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-6011/the_black_widow_s_guide_to_killer_pool.html http://www.billiardssupply.net/images/products/BHBKBW.jpg http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-6011/the_black_widow_s_guide_to_killer_pool.html This is a new book written by David Alfieri and Uwe Sander and based on the knowledge and teaching principles of Jerry Briesath, the founder of The Pool School. The goal of this 192 page book is to present a system of learning that has been able to separate the effective from the ineffective for over two or three decades. If you ever went to The Pool School in Madison, Wisconsin and wished that everything you learned there was written down in a book you could take home with you...well ...this is it. There are six major sections: Playing Accessories, Stance and Grip, Systematic Training Concepts, The Stop Shot, Training, and Beginner Mistakes. Each of these sections is broken down into many sub-sections, all of which are explained and demonstrated with photos and graphics. The authors are the founders of The Pool School Germany, are German or European champions, and BCA Advanced Instructors. Although this book is based on the teachings of Jerry Breisath, a top American instructor, some of the value of this book is that it comes from a different perspective. This gives it a freshness that even accomplished players will appreciate. http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-5677/the_basics_of_pool_billiards.html http://www.billiardssupply.net/images/products/ALBKBP.jpg http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-5677/the_basics_of_pool_billiards.html Subtitled "Everything You Need to Know to Learn and Master the Game", this is one of the best-selling billiards books of all-time.

In this game, knowledge is power. Over 200 illustrations on over 200 pages show the proper form, technique, and approach to these shots. Most students of the game will tell you that they have learned some of their techniques from this book. http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-6010/the_99_critical_shots_in_pool.html http://www.billiardssupply.net/images/products/BHBK99.jpg http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-6010/the_99_critical_shots_in_pool.html Use this book as a step-by-step guide to help you master the game of 8-Ball.

Beginning with the Hustler's Tournaments in Johnston City, Diliberto was one of the fabled road players. He excelled in four sports: baseball, bowling, boxing, and pool. Boxing was his first love, but his own hands could not stand the power of his blows. Pool gave him greatest fame and that's what this book is about. Any devotee of the game will be fascinated with this look into the immediate past of the game. From Las Vegas to Hollywood to the smallest towns on the most distant highways, this is the life of the roadman. A gamblers tale in his own words.

Born to a sharecropping family during the great depression, Cornbread Reds early talent for billiards was encouraged and his passion to win made him a favorite among betting men. In a fast, thrilling, and sometimes dangerous culture, Red learned the "rules of the road" from hustlers, gamblers, con-men, and champions. This is a great book that reads like a story.

Richard Kranicki's book goes into great detail, with sixty-four illustrations on 110 pages, on all matters of shooting, including stance, alignment, aiming methods, and cue tip aim compensation. This book can greatly help you improve your game, if you take the time to apply the lessons it teaches. If you are going to practice, you want to practice doing the RIGHT things. This book shows you what those things are. Here are some reviews of the book: He (Richard Kranicki) has invented, by necessity, a whole bunch of new terms and phrases. Nobody has ever taken this subject matter to the depth Kranicki has. In short, this is a serious book, compiled by a committed, creative, and inventive author. If you are looking for a new challenge, or if you realize the incredible impact of eye and head alignment on your consistency, I suggest you pick up a copy. -- Bob Henning, in The Billiard Newspaper; Richard Kranicki's new book is the mother of all treatises on the fundamentals of pool. Kranicki has taken the basics and broken them down to a level heretofore unprecedented. For the most part, he concentrates almost entirely on aiming and physical alignment. -- Jim West, in Billiard Digest magazine; Kranicki explores some areas that I've never seen before. As one example, seeing the contact point, aiming point, equator of the ball, etc. are all skewed by the fact that we are looking at a sphere from a standing position. The title doesn't tell much, but this is primarily a book about seeing and aiming - the first that has been devoted to this highly critical area. The benefits to your game could, and probably will be - AMAZING. It will get you thinking seriously about your aiming methods. It's on my must-have list.-- Thomas C. Shaw, Pool and Billiard Magazine http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-6317/answer_to_a_pool_player_s_prayers.html http://www.billiardssupply.net/images/products/RKBKPP.jpg http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-6317/answer_to_a_pool_player_s_prayers.html To realize your full potential at pool you've got to master the mental game. A Mind For Pool gives you a complete course on the thinking side of pool. From the very first day that you pick up a cue your attitude towards things like practice, change, slumps and instruction all play an important part in your success as a pool player. The better you play, the more important the mental game becomes. In fact, when excellent players compete, the winner is most often the one who has learned to best handle the pressure, sharking, unruly crowd behavior and many other potentially game ruining factors. A Mind For Pool reveals the erroneous thoughts that can undermine your developments as well as your ability to compete successfully. In every instance the book then goes on to show you a more constructive way to view the situation. In the process you will learn how to concentrate on your game, minimize the impact of bad luck, win tournaments and much, much more. A Mind For Pool gives you 120 bite sized lessons on all facets of the mental game, each one a self contained unit. Each lesson is summarized by Capelle's Laws for Pool. You'll also find quotes from history's greatest thinkers that serve to reinforce each lesson. A series of 80 checklists enable you to easily evaluate all parts of your mental game. Icons point out tips, insights, warnings and pool facts. http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-6064/a_mind_for_pool.html http://www.billiardssupply.net/images/products/CABKMP.jpg http://www.billiardssupply.net/content-product_info/product_id-6064/a_mind_for_pool.html THE EIGHT BALL BIBLE is filled with unique insights, clever examples and over 464 illustrations covering almost every imaginable situation in 8-ball.
