  • Play pool? you'll want this!
I have played for years and gave it up for 30 years picked up a cue again and remembered why I love the game and missed it so much. 350 isn't all practical shots but most are and some are if you dare to go out a Hero than a Zero. Practice,practice and practice you will see shots you would have not seen before or even tried for the win. The book gives you a reason to walk around the table one more time before taking a cop out and if you go for the Safety then it shows you that too! I play A.P.A. and pool halls if you are only going to do one thing to improve your game for play this is the one you should own,basic to complicated shots laid out in pictures to set up and the reasons why they work,spin,points,masses,banks,and rails. Winning options it's there too,the reason we play,is for the love of the game,the reason we play others is to find out how good we really are and collecting W's next to your name is a bonus for practicing. ... show more

  • An interesting compendium of useful not well know shots
This Byrne book shows you shots the average Joe either doesn't see or doesn't know how to execute. It's written on cheap paper and has no color pictures or illustrations. They aren't needed. Simple line drawings and a paragraph or two suffice. I have this book at my bedside, and often try to read and absorb a few of Byrne's shots before the Sandman calls. ... show more

  • Scratch
I am advanced beginner and need a book with explanations and pictures. This is a Good book with lots of pictures. The size of the pictures are not a problem for understanding the lesson. By the way, that white circle in the pictures is a cue ball with a black dot as to where to strike it for the shot. ... show more

  • Byrne's Complete Bood of Pool Shots
It's a great book. I thought I new something about the game of pool, but after reading through this book, I began to look at the game, and table, a whole different way. I have both this and Byrne's "350 shots" and I am looking for new books of this type to advance my game to a whole different level. I couldn't be happier. Both are good reads, and give good examples. I would recommend this and others books to anyone who would like to improve their game. I wish I would have read these 40 years ago! Willie and Fats, would have had a tough competitor on their tail. ... show more

  • Probably good for beginners, or is it pros?
I consider myself decent at pool. I'm ranked as a 4 in APA 8-ball and have been playing on a frequent basis for the past 2 years. While this book is good, it seems to be entirely offensive shots. There are many instances where instead of attempting the shot shown in the diagram in the book, it would probably be better to try and play a safe (meaning you make a legal hit, but leave your opponent with a difficult shot afterwards). Most of these shots in the book are difficult to make once, but are incredibly difficult for most of us to make on a consistent basis. If you want to win, you should be playing the percentages and often a defensive shot has a much higher probability of success than these offensive shots. I would've liked this book better if it discussed the alternative shots that could've been taken, and mentioned the pros and cons of those decisions. Without it, it isn't very convincing that the shots shown are the best options. Therefore, I think this book is good for beginners who just want to know some cool shots, or pros who are so accurate and precise that these shots are possible nearly 90% of the time. ... show more
