Would like feedback on a foosball book I am writing.
« on: July 23, 2017, 03:01:33 PM »
I am in the process of writing a foosball book for advanced foosball players.  I have played foosball for over 40 years.  The book is in pdf form and is currently around 40 pages.  The book is called "Anatomy of a Pull Shot."  The book is about shooting a pull shot,  training a pull shot, the pull shot game, and defending against a pull shot.   The book does not teach you how to shoot a pull shot.  It is assumed that you can already shoot a pull shot.  The book gives methods for increasing the speed, accuracy, power, consistency and focus/concentration of your pull shot. 

I would really appreciate any feedback anyone can give me on the book and the training methods offered in the book.

Thanks for posting.  I am a beginner but playing a lot lately with some professional direction with a local group.  I am about 1/4 the way through and so far enjoying the read.

Great. I am glad that you are enjoying the book.  The first part of the book contains exercises that you can use to improve your shots.  The rest of the book is mainly information about using a pull shot and defending against a pull shot.  If you have any trouble with the any parts let me know and I will try to give a better explanation.

Here is a better link to the PDF.

I have not figured out how to edit my original post yet on this forum.

Have not read your writings yet....    I just wanted to mention that the inner book of tennis has a lot of relevance to the mental part of execution of a pull shot...   you might wish to address that in your book.

Thanks. I will check it out.  I am always looking for information that can help with my game.  There is a lot of good information about sports and athletics that applies to foosball.
