“Negative Thinking” can be a pool player’s worst enemy. It can make professionals play like amateurs, alter strokes, and cause “straight-in” shots to go awry. Most players understand this, but do not have the knowledge required to overcome it. This book emphasizes the need to replace “Negative Past Experiences” with a commitment to mastering “The Process.” Beeler’s approach shows how to maintain a “Positive” attitude and make playing a game of pool fun again.
