Yep, I've got a gift for all this holiday season coming soon.
I've talked about the only simple aiming system that both doesn't require guessing what the heck a quarter ball or half ball is.
It doesn't require figuring out where an inch and an eighth space from the object ball is so you can envision a ghost ball that in and of itself doesn't even exist.
It doesn't require ANY compensation for left or right english.
It doesn't require you to sway or twist your backhand during your stroke. (which IMO is frigging ridiculous)
I've been preaching an aiming system so simple that even I, an old brain dead fart, who can't remember his own name without checking his drivers license kind of guy can use INSTANTLY and with complete success.
What it does do is takes all or as much as possible, all the estimating out of aiming.
It boils down all the cryptic hard to understand, and calculate aiming systems, to unnecessary, and no longer worthy of hair pulling.
It renders all other aiming systems merely secondary, for amusement purposes only, things needed only for idle chat.
It's what I've been saying right along and now .... :grin: I found the video clip of it. Yep, I tossed my basement, I tossed my room, I threw CDs and DVDs all over the house. But I found it. I found affirmation that I'm not crazy.
Now you won't have to believe me, now you can watch it and see how ridiculously simple and effective it is.
The eternal problem with aiming is the curvature of the balls and the aiming point and contact point being different since the leading edge of the OB and CB interfere with the actual contact point and mandate that the aiming point has to be compensated for with all these elaborate systems.
Well, I told you it wasn't necessary, but now you can see it. This simple little seemingly insignificant system makes the aiming point and the contact point one and the same and all the bull%%@$ is gone.
That's the good news, the bad news is I have to figure out how to upload it. Vimeo isn't sending me an email confirmation so I can upload. I'm going to have some Thanksgiving dinner and pie ... but with all this aiming system chatter I thought it would be fun to give you something to look forward to seeing....
I'll post back as soon as I get it uploaded.
