Karnehm's books

[cox orange pippin]

I can't seem to find a table of contents or description of Jack Karnehm's books "World Snooker 1" and "World Snooker 2". Are these instructional books or not? I know he has another book on snooker and billiards (is it good?), but haven't seen it either.

I have enjoyed the videos of his on youtube (although it is incomplete). Would anyone here have it on DVD for sale or b&p? Thanks.

Hi,

I have his complete snooker VHS. You could go to a place and get it put to DVD.

The problem is that your VHS tape is probably Region 2 (or whatever the UK is) and my player won't play it. With DVDs, I can watch them on my computer, so it's not a big deal if they're in PAL. Thanks, though.

Would it help of i could get it converted to an AVI?

[cox orange pippin]

I think that would work, actually. Are you offering this or charging for it? Thanks.

[totlxtc]

No, no, no.......ill get my mate to do it and ill upload it for you.

Wow, thanks mate! That's very generous. I think it's all good because it's out of print nowadays.

I'll PM you later this week when i speak to him.

Is there anything in particular with Karnhehm's books you prefer or are you suggestible to books by someone else?
Reason I ask is I remember reading 'Cliff Thorburn's Snooker skills' back in the mid 90's,it was pretty instructive on technique and he also wrote about his formative snooker on an intravenous drip phase learning the ropes.I think you can get it for a pittance on amazon,good read

Hi trains: I like Cliff's book also, interesting enough I see him often in the
Toronto area, and he does private one on one coaching $200 an hour
I guess that would be around 100 pounds an hour. a nice guy and still
plays pretty good and as you know he is over in England doing that Legend
tour. take care
p.s Cliff always makes an effort to talk to people and give advice even
for the lowly 30 clearance guys like me.

Hi Bob,I'm not surprised about him making an effort talking and giving advice,you could tell from the book the game was in his dna.I owe my relative? prowess on potting with sidespin to that book.
Cliff was a great player particularly in the mid 80's.
Keep knocking em off the lampshades,or onto,whichever floats your boat.

Yes, my favorite snooker book (I only have 3 right now) is Cliff's book "Snooker Skills." Extremely well presented and explained. The sections on side and the throw of the object ball due to side are very enlightening.

Thanks for the information roykay, but totlxtc is arranging a way to send me the video. If that should fall through, I might contact Roger. Most of the Karnehm video is on youtube, but it is missing several segments.
