We need a minimum of 5 students in order to go to Houston. If you would like to help setup a class at your favorite pool hall we would love to teach you there. If so call me at (623) 377-0042 and I can send you out some brochures. Johnny Henson Professor Pool

Most average players have trouble running a rack of 8 ball. Even 9 ball or 10 ball is hard for most players to play well. I feel that less than 5% of all players have the skills and touch to play such a precise game as 1 pocket. Sounds like you are one of the 5%ers. Johnny Henson Professor Pool.

Having a true level cue, your right. I deal with players that have their sticks 3 4 5 inches off the table and they can't play well or draw the ball well at all. I call having a level cue as having the cue on or near the table while playing. Johnny Henson Professor Pool

Over the years I have played 1 pocket less than 10 times. It is a very precise game that is very unforgiving. Most of the players I played over the years were sloppy, and risk-takers, and I beat them without much effort. Against a real 1 pocket player such as yourself that would be a different ball game. I don't talk about 1 pocket much because I have not played it that much. Johnny Henson Professor Pool

Most of my students are over the age of 50. I recently taught an 85-year-old who turned out to be a great student. Johnny Henson Professor Pool

I do teach players via Zoom. Call me at (623) 377-0042 and we can talk. Johnny Henson

I have been teaching for 18 years. I have seen some very good pool players that are very surprised at how much their game improved with instruction. I am sure if you seek out a good instructor in your area you will see a big difference in a short period of time. Johnny Henson Professor Pool

I find most of these shots fairly easy once you practice a while.

Back in the day, I was considered one of the better combination shooters in the world. I feel that if a person puts an object ball 1 foot away from the pocket and the first ball to be hit 1 foot away from that ball and the cue ball 1 foot away from that ball now you have a 3 foot combination shot. If you will move your balls around, to not set up the same shot each time you will learn to get a feel for the combination shots. This is one method I used to master them.

Many of my students are 50 or older. i keep classes small for lots of One on One

Hope to see you in class, you will have fun.

I really wish that billiard instruction could be a major part of the game in the USA. I would like us to get back to a high % of the top players in the world for the USA. It would grow the sport at all levels of the game within the USA. Johnny Henson

Glad it was helpful! Johnny Henson

I find simple drills help players build confidence. Johnny Henson

Any shot that is over 45 degrees should be shot using the edge to edge aiming method. Hope this helps

@@billiarduniversity5842 as far as the cut angle limit for each of the 5 shaft aim points. am i right this is assuming shaft diameter of 12.5 to 13 mm ?

Yes

I have used Master Chalk since 1977. It is good chalk. I feel the new chalk is a little better but it is much more expensive.

Agreed, nothing at all wrong with master. I noticed the 1080 felt maybe less gritty or scratchy when applying. Not sure I'd buy it again, but will be using up the couple tubes I got before trying anything else.

Your aiming different parts of you ferrell to the edge of the object ball opposite side of the pocket your shooting at.

I think he is a funny cat.

@@billiarduniversity5842 You've always had cats that want your attention so that they get on the pool. Table and block the pocket for you l o l

Don't tell that to the cat.

Send me a email to shootyourbestpool@gmail.com Johnny Henson 623-377-0042 We can do Zoom outside the USA

Most people like it but a few think it is complicated. I teach a much easier system to students in class. Johnny Henson Professor Pool

I try to teach everything as easy to understand as possible. Glad you liked it.

I agree. People like trick shots. I have now started doing some when I actually am playing people.

The cue ball takes a little time when editing

I feel that students many times use English much more than they should. I hope that video helps.

There are a lot of top players that come from there.

10 inch bridge length and 8 inch stroke length. Some students have slightly longer or shorter lengths. Hope this answers the question. Johnny Henson Professor Pool

@@billiarduniversity5842 thanks you

People really like these online.

People love trick shots

In Phoenix, AZ there are very few snooker tables. I teach in a pool hall with 45 tables and no snooker tables. Sad but true.

I will do shots on 4 x 9. There is not much difference in difficulty between tables. Jumping and kicking I find easier on the larger tables. Johnny Henson Professor Pool

I hit the 3 ball to make the 9 ball. In 9 ball you just need to hit the lowest number ball first. Johnny Henson. Professor Pool. Thanks
