Larry Nicholson learned pool as a kid bowler, rolling the cue ball with sidespin across his father's six and a half foot table and pretending to throw strikes. A Kim Davenport Target Pool book turned him into a position player before he ever cared about pocketing balls. He coached softball, wrestling, and football long before competing in pool in 1999, and taught for free for seven years until his own students told him to stop. Now a Master PBIA and ACS Level 4 instructor in Texas, he also performs with Gospel Trick Shot Ministries. We discuss why your aim is rarely the problem, the subconscious trigger behind a jerky draw stroke, why he removes the cue ball during lessons, a five-minute warm-up that isn't racking the balls, the 6-2-8 breathing pattern for pressure, and how to sneak into the cue ball.
