Now if only they'd release a special edition DVD!

I like Dr. Dave's book. For $10, it's a no-brainer: http://www.amazon.com/Illustrated-Principles-Pool-Billiards/dp/1402714289/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1256178547&sr=1-11

It seems like the pendulum stroke is the best way to learn, and I certainly don't think it is less accurate in any way, but it is curious that few pros use the "textbook" stroke. Since pros obviously take training seriously, you would think more would adopt best practices. That suggests to me...

The 3rd eye video is on his website: http://joetucker.net/freevideos.html I don't see anything about The Magic Eye. So what is it? I assume it's not a secret?

What is it? Not released yet?

Joe T is the man, he should get a Nobel Prize in pool. You won't hear any BS about his stuff. Wasn't there a rumor of a new product coming out?

If a few sentences of description negates the value of the video, then it's not much of a video, is it?

I was just watching Minority Report, we should be able to buy some eyeballs on the street soon. Also in the future, for some reason hard drives become smaller, so they revert to some kind of plastic disks to store data.

I wear contacts, my eyes are very bad, the prescription is -8.50/-9.00. I was told I could not do Lasik with that prescription.

This is evidence that people are not always aware of -- or do not wish to acknowledge -- the small adjustments they make when using aiming references. SAM may be useful for some people, but as others have stated, your claim is simply false. (I realize people are talking about other systems...

But isn't the CTE aim just a reference? You can't possibly pocket 80% of all shots by just aiming CTE with no pivot or adjustment. You don't even need Dr. Dave's proofs to know that.

My two cents is that Joe Tucker's third eye helped me to sight properly on a straight-in shot (and it's cheap and no secrets necessary!) -- now I know I need to line up just slightly away from center towards my dominant eye. Whether I need to change that for other shots for optimal results, I...

Doesn't it depend on the person where they perceive a straight line best? How else could you explain different professionals who line up their cue in every possible position relative to their eyes? I know that's what the SPF instructors have said. So if someone tells you to do it one way...

So the idea is to do that in order to learn cue ball control?

That's a good idea, the good news for me is if I do it while someone's looking, my position will be so far from the cue tip placement that they won't even realize what I'm doing. :thumbup:

I'm not sure i like that feature where people can see who looked at your page. Not that anyone really cares, but if I want to find someone's older posts or something who I don't really know, now I look like a stalker. I prefer to keep my stalking separate from AZB.:yeah:

When I was first looking for a pool forum, I passed this one by because I figured it was a local Arizona forum. Of course I later realized it wasn't, if you had to start over it's probably not the ideal name but I guess it doesn't matter too much.

Let me ask this, to Gene or anyone else familiar with it: I know that I am right-eye dominant, and that for me to perceive a straight line correctly I need to line up my cue slightly towards my left eye rather than directly under my dominant eye. Of course that doesn't mean that I am able to...

So when is the new video coming out?

It's complicated but I don't think it's outside the realm of science.
