Q-Skill Drill

[SeeDee]

I'm looking for the rules and rating system of a drill I believe Allen Hopkins came up with. Does anyone have any info that could help?

GeorgeV posted the rules not too long ago.

You can view them here (http://www.billiardsdigest.com/ccboard/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=ccb&Number=147901&Foru m=All_Forums&Words=q-skill&Match=Entire%20Phrase&Searchpage=0&Limit=25& Old=1year&Main=147811&Search=true#Post147901)

That describes the 9-ball version of it (also described here 9-ball Q-Skill (http://www.billiardsdigest.com/ccboard/newreply.php?Cat=&amp;Board=ccb&amp;Number=156210&amp;page=0&amp;v iew=collapsed&amp;what=showflat&amp;sb=5&amp;o=&amp;fpart=1&amp;vc=1&amp;q uote=y)), the original Q-Skill was with a full rack and is described here Alan Hopkins Q-Skill (http://www.nmt.edu/~billiard/qskills_scorecard.html)

Unfortunately, the link to the Q-skill rules doesn't provide a table of ratings based upon score.

Here is the rating system:

0 - 300 - Recreational Player
301-600 - Intermediate player
601-900 - Advanced player
901-1200 - Developing Pro
1201-1600 - Semi-pro
1601-1800 - Professional
1801-2000 - Touring professional (Efren)

You can find all the info and the chart and ratings on the "BlackBelt Billiards" site. It is the best drill I have ever used.
