| I have been on the table for almost one solid year with the game of nine ball. One day while I was in a match I noticed how my opponent seemed to lack a few things and I thought about telling him what I had observed. He was a fine road player, a tough gambler. When he leaned over a shot I realized that to learn what I could tell him would take years and years and it struck me right then and there that the world masters won’t share this information with you because it took them so much sweat and tears to acquire the knowledge and they don’t feel like giving it away. I could relate to that. That’s when I realized that all the information you get on this game, found in DVD’s and books are limited to common knowledge. No one really digs down and gives you the meat of the game. As I sat there I actually told myself that I would not share this part of the game with anyone. I, like other players, would go on alone. It took to much effort to reach this place. I spent almost two years in the garage in New Zealand working on my skills. During the winter I had to wear my gloves until the wood stove would heat up the place. At one point I was legally blind but I pressed on as I was no stranger to the valley. I returned to the states and continued my work. Then I settled in Nashville Tennessee and put myself through hell. I was a researcher who wanted to build the right skills that would sustain me in a tough fight or long match. I trained and as a result of my "training mentality" I tasted the bitter pill of defeat and often wondered what on earth I was doing. I thought I understood the concepts of playing Nine Ball. What I did understand was the idea of skill development with regards to the stroke. Nashville almost did me in. I stood at the door of one of my favorite pool halls ready to leave after two and out in a B tournament. I was sure I would win this nine ball event easily. How low could I let myself go? Just how bad can this get? I returned the next month to avenge this humiliation. My opponent ran the first set on me and I missed a shot in the second set and sat by and watched my opponent run out to send me back to the exit in total shock. I want to Bailey’s Billiards just north of Nashville and ran four hundred balls without a miss! Why could I not win a B tournament? What was wrong with me? I found a small pool hall in a little rusty town somewhere in middle Tennessee and vowed that this would be the place where I would “get it“. There were four tables, and no one ever showed up in the morning hours. I would hide out in this place and master this game. No one will bother me, no one knows me in this little town, no one will come over and say, “you rack em and I’ll crack em”, let's play a race to five for five”. So I dove into my work. I spent a year in that place and perfected my stroke. There were no shots I could not make. I was finally where I needed to be. So I returned to the B Tournament. This would be easy. I lost my first match. Was able to win two matches in the losers’ bracket, one against someone’s girlfriend and the other to a man who far surpassed ninety years old. Then I was out, no money no winners circle and nothing to show for my failures. Okay, all the rolls went against me. You might laugh but it was true. All my mistakes were magnified. Every mistake I made in all my games cost me dearly. I decided that Tennessee had seen the last of me. I’d take my game on the road and play in those Viking tournaments. After all, they are amateurs. I should be able to win there. More of the same....... I did not make it to the money at all. Not once. I played in about twelve or fifteen events and the results were the same. Not good, very disappointing. So I moved to Florida to retreat, perhaps retire. There was no place to go. I moved in to a resort type camp ground. This place had a table so I decided to face the demons once and for all. GO TO BOTTOM OF THIS NEXT PAGE. TO BE CONTINUED...... |

| THE SHOT, MINUS THE INTERFERENCE EQUALS THE STROKE. In my book Point the Way I talk about how the shot minus the interference equals the stroke. What is the interference? When you lean over the, table focused on a shot that could win or lose the game you must be free to deliver the stroke. Without a good stroke you miss and lose. Your concentration must be clear. Concentration is the narrowing of your focus on the object of your desire. You narrow your focus on something you are deeply interested in. If your attention is divided your keen interest is challenged. In my program THE ROAD PLAYERS NINE BALL TRAINING I work with you in the art of concentration. I show you how to connect to the shot. This connection is a vital part of your interest. Interest equals concentration, concentration equals success. We are not interested in avoiding a loss or winning a game. We are interested in the cue ball making contact with the object ball. You must see the shot. Your interest must be on the shot and nothing else. The connection part of this process involves the letting go of all interference. You are one with what you want to accomplish. Connect to the shot. See the shot, feel the shot, sense the shot and become one with the shot. You must know the stroke you are going to use, and be able to anticipate how it will sound when you deliver the cue tip through the cue ball. Your opponent will talk to you during the connection stage because he knows that this is the time to break your concentration thus to cause interference with your stroke. Do not respond to your opponent. Ignore him/her. Stay in your own world. Interference comes in many forms. One popular form is “fear of failure”. This fear interferes with our ability to deliver the pure stroke each shot requires. I have missed a shot because I knew my next shot was going to be tough. Or I missed because I did not know how a clump would break apart. Now I “make the shot”. 2. Fear of success. How many times have we become nervous as we finish our run out for the victory? This nervousness is interference. 3. Fear of the shot. Your perceptions form your mind set. When you face a shot you have missed before, this past experience comes back to you at the exact moment you try to connect to the shot. That mind set is interference. When I designed the ROAD PLAYERS NINE BALL TRAINING I paid a lot of attention to the identification of the shot at hand. When you face an important shot you must see it as it is. The series of shots I take you through are set up so you can deliver one hundred per cent of your stroke. This gives you a much better chance for success. 4. Inability to compete. Sometimes it is just plain hard to compete. After a tough missed shot you feel down and defeated. The score should have been two to two but instead as a result of your mistake it is three to one. You have lost your competitive spirit. I get that way during a long tough match. We must learn to build those competitive skills so we are at one hundred per cent all the time. We do this through training. Specific and deliberate practice helps us to narrow our focus on the shot at hand. When we can break it down to connection to the shot we are then able to deliver the pure stroke. That is why training is so important. When we are not performing well others will say we are out of rhythm. This is caused by interference, not so much with the shot at hand but with the match. We may be over our head, or close to winning a tournament or far behind in a match. The interference is constant. Steps to take to avoid interference. In the ROAD PLAYERS TRAINING PROGRAM I work specifically on a series of shots that come up in the game of nine ball. Not many players recognize this when it happens so we want to master the ability to focus on what the shots require. All the shots in the series are designed to build your skills at nine ball. This is why the training program carries a money back guarantee. I am the only teacher in this game who guarantees you will improve or your money back! We also need to build our competitive skills. In all matches we connect to composure. This enables us to be in the proper rhythm for each shot. Concentration, composure is linked to courage. Courage exists when we have the ability to connect to each shot with total purpose. In a serious training program all the components need to be present. 2012 is the year for you to put it all together. Make it your time to shine. You will be faced with all the same old challenges you faced in the past but this time you approach them in a different light. If I am to bring your game to a higher level I must bring you to a higher level. You need shot recognition, pattern recognition and game discipline in order to become a first class nine ball player. |
