Monk 101 DVD

Master the Art of Pocket Billiards

Shot Making, The Four Strokes of Pool, Cue Ball Speed and Master Self and there's simply no way to fail

"Warning! This is what your pool rivals hope you don't know..."

Dear Friend, If you'd like to win more games then you lose, sharpen your billiards skills to an edge and develop a more consistent game, then this might be the most important letter you'll ever read. - The Monk

Here's why: The Monk authored the only complete billiards instruction curriculum, the 101 program. He produced this two DVD set to bring this program into your living room. Now, I know you're probably skeptical. That's normal and healthy. Let me give you three good reasons we can back up what we claim:

Three Reasons To Believe What I Say

Reason one: Tim Miller, The Monk, has been developing his 101 Series of billiard instruction since 1983. He spent three years working on the dynamics of shot making. Like the Tibet Monks of old, he isolated himself in meditation and solitude until he came to understand the colliding principles of stroke and cue ball speed. He worked out a method to help players improve both concentration skills and performance. The result: The Monk 101 Program

Reason two: This program has formed the basis of seminars, workshops and one-on-one tutoring that has taken many of his students to the top of the billiards tournament scene.

Reason three: "I need to always remember, we are in the business of helping players everywhere. If I can get them a good price on a product, then I am fulfilling that mission." This has become the mission of The Monk.

Let me explain.

Yes, if you master the Big Four Stages of pocket billiards, you will succeed, of course the catch is that you must succeed at all four.

You must master Shot Making. You must master the Four Strokes of Pool. You must master Cue Ball Speed and you must master Self. There are no shortcuts. There is no other way. Miss out on any one of these stages, and your game will not be strong. You must pass through the Four Stages of Pool. Strengthen your game by practicing each stage.

Here’s the tricky part before you open the DVD!

It is very, very important that you define what you want to get out of your learning, what you want from your pocket billiards experience. Player wannabes often evoke a goal of "I just want to see how good I can get". Go further. Define what you want to get out of this game. When you define your goals, you know where you want to go. If you are vague about what you want in this game. then you will end up in a vague place. Let The Monk point the way for you.

Quality of hit I will help you acquire a great quality of hit, a pure stroke. Then you will be strong when you enter a tournament or play a match.

We can accept the fact all who follow the 101 program want to be great pool players. But why, why do you want to be a great pool player?

You want to win tournaments.
You want to enjoy the game.
You don't want to miss shots.
You don't want to lose.

When you state your goal through your development, that's what you'll focus on. Take action, measure your progress and make adjustments.

When you become the pool player you want to be, you will meet other players who are friendly, exciting and good. You will find that whether you are great or not, you have become a member of a The Big Monk family.

Remember, you deserve to be a good pool player--you spent time and money on the necessary knowledge, you committed to regular practice, you put the time in, you deserve your success, of course you do. - it's very important - that’s the reason you will work on the material in this DVD set.

Testimonials

Tim, I would like to thank you for your workshop in Chicago 2 weeks ago. My game is now advancing much faster than I would have thought possible. I have so much confidence right now! The 2-7-2 program has almost completely eliminated my doubt on shots. Before I had to let the cue ball go too often because I did not know how to get it where I needed it to be. Now, even though I'm not precise all the time, and don't always make the right choices, I can at least have a specific intention about where the ball will end up and that has helped tremendously!

My friends can't beat me right now. In fact, I haven't played anyone since your workshop that could beat me consistently. I've traded games with a player that would have crushed me before. I need new competition badly, but at least it has kept my confidence high while I'm mastering the strokes you taught me. I'm actually taking time to practice again. I was having a lot of trouble concentrating on drills before. I knew they were good for me, but I couldn't bring myself to do them for any length of time.

Anyone who has a chance to go to one of The Monk's workshops should jump on it. You won't regret it, you will improve your game. It was possibly the best $100 I have ever spent. Thanks Monk -Tim Costa

Tim, I want to personally thank you for what you have done to help me with this difficult game. Thanks to all the books, and videos, I have elevated my game to a very respectful level.

Because of your teachings, I was able to finally win my first local tournament, and just last Thursday night, I placed second in another tournament. I also finished 9th in our pool league this year out of 72 regular shooters.

Getting to the finals in a tournament is something I only dreamed of in the past. I am continuing my journey in this game, and I must admit that I want to go much farther.

Thanks again, on the best tool in the billiard world; The Book "I Came To Win". This book is the single largest reason why my friends can no longer beat me, and why I have caused them so much frustration

Hi Tim. Just wanted to let you know, I have been working on the 100 ball run that you spent so long trying to do in your basement years ago.

It took me about a month and a half to do it!

I just ran 112 balls with out a miss on the evening of 4-11-03. I did this on my table and it seemed to just come out of the blue! The best I could do before this was 53 balls.

I just came out of a major slump and this to be honest was totally unexpected. The next day, today, 4-12-03, I played a player from league that I haven't been able to beat in the past.

I played this guy 2 other times and lost! One of the other times I was ahead 4-0 in a race to 5 and still lost to this guy! The other time I was crushed 5-0. I beat this guy today for the first time 5-3. Well I think the law of averages isn't always right.

Lightning can strike twice in the same place! I feel I owe this to your great program. The Lesson, Eight ball book, etc... and all the mental training material. I have your complete program as you know, and am constantly reviewing it. See you in Las Vegas next month if my plane doesn't crash. Just kidding!

Two Years of work on 101

Dear Tim, I just wanted to take this time to thank you for all your help and for all you've done for me. You planted a seed that has blossomed and is now showing the fruits of the labor. Thank you for the creation of the 8 Ball Book, the 2 - 7 - 2, The 101 Program and The Lesson. It's been almost two years now since I started working on the program and it has really paid off. Last weekend, I won the Orlando Regional APA Ball Classic in the Purple tier and now am eligible to play in Las Vegas on April 23-25th, 2003 at the APA 8 Ball National Singles Championship. It is with the training from Randy and Jerry at Cue-Tech, your inspiration and guidance, and your fabulous material The Lesson and The 8 Ball Book, that were key factors in giving me the skills and attitude to compete in this tournament. It is also your guidance and help that prepared me for the experience. I went to this tournament with the attitudes of "I Came To Win!" and that I did. For the next two months, I will again be preparing to further my journey to Pooldom Come as I reach for new heights. I am proud to be a Monks Disciple and am looking for the support and encouragement from other Disciples as I embark on this monumental task. To "Win" The National Championships" in Las Vegas. Thank you again for all you've done and most of all, for giving me the "Three Reasons We Play Pool!"
