Hi guys. I've been playing for 40+ years, much of what I know came from my dad and an older player who coached me back in the 80's

I'm looking for some reference books.......ideally a few that will get into the math side of number crunching, percentages on second half plays, etc.

Any suggestions? I have a background in calculus, advanced math and statistics.

Thanks,

Doc

This thread looks interesting and was the result of a search for 'Joseph Buchdahl' (only hit). Posting a question in a new thread but figured I'd bump this up for anyone intersted in the subject...won't have to do your own search, anyways, as it should be close to my Q thread.


oops...I thought this was from the general discussion forum...

still doing my Q
