    Default Coaching Book?

    Can anyone recommend a proven coaching book please, that takes someone from the basics up to intermediate level. I'm always asking questions of the kind folk on here, maybe I need to do some reading of my own.
    Harder than you think is a beautiful thing.

    Default Coaching Book?

    Possible Steve David books I remember as being quite good. Think terry griffiths also had a few out. There's plenty on the net to go at.
    Always a pleasure

    Frank Callan's 'The Snooker Clinic' is the classic one. 'Snooker & Billiards' by Clive Everton is also worth reading. The internet provides a load of good works too, such as P.J. Nolan's practise routines for instance.

    Check out the snooker gym which has loads of books and dvds by Nic Barrow.

    www.thesnookergym.com

    I think the best book for technique is frank callans snooker clinic which can be picked up on ebay.

    The 'bible' of snooker is considered to be Complete Snooker or How I play Snooker by Joe Davis but sometimes these are very hard to find although I see an advert in the latest SnookerScene magazine for a whole raft of books, including this one, for sale.

    I use the Joe Davis book and also the Frank Callan book myself along with TheSnookerGym stuff. I also have Terry Griffiths' book and Clive's book too. I lost my Steve Davis book by loaning it to some dip-sh*t years ago
