Please note that for any 1 line visual, the eye that aims can be chosen.
The zero angle shots provide a choice as well.
The cut shot, 2 line visuals with a CTEL do not offer a choice.

I'll be watching your posts now.
I was going to left it slide a little....let you go with a warning....
Nah.
See ya later.
Thanks Mr Wilson!
Tap Tap Tap…great moderating!
Mr Wilson
One warning should have been issued after first post and then banned. We all know about the CTE and other aiming system haters out there and we are all tired of them wasting valuable people's time.
Thanks for the posts Stan. I do own your DVD.

2 line perceptions. Aim line/CTEL
One advantage of teaching and in this case preparing to present material on a DVD is that the material is studied indepth over and over. As I learn I am happy to share.
A CB has 2 edges for aiming.
Concerning the 2 line visuals for CTE PRO ONE, it is almost always THE eye that aims a CBE to an OB Aimpoint that also sights the CTEL.
Consider this for concept development.
A 2 line visual for a cut to the left could have, depending on the shot, either your left or right eye doing the work of acquiring the perceptions for aiming and CTEL sighting.
That 2 line perception can be perceived as an overlap, a channel or even a tube.
To test this you could close one eye and see if the open eye can clearly perceive both lines. It is Okay for the open eye to shift from the aim line to the sight line but NO head movement is allowed. This is an easy way to determined which eye is picking up the 2 line perceptions or not.
The AIMING EYE leads you to CCB ball during your visual sweep for YOUR strongest visual alignment.
***I am right eye dominant. When my right eye leads to CCB, I am significantly over my right eye. When my left eye leads the way to CCB, I still favor my right eye but perhaps, not as strongly.

Tom, thank you for your input.
While you have no idea what other obligations I may need to attend in a day, thank you for sharing your opinion on how it should have been handled.

Mr. Shuffett
I purchased the Cte Pro One about 2 years ago, maybe 3. Time flies. In the video, I found Stan to be a genuinely honest man, with a direct intention to explain his system so anyone could learn it. He does so brilliantly in his video. Heck, if I can grasp it, lol, anyone can. I had to work at it for a few months, sure, as everything didn't just come at once. But I have never shot better in my life, or had more confidence in knowing I can make a balls. I would like to personally thank Stan Shuffett for his unselfishness in showing players a great system to enjoy pool even more.

Couple of Racks using Pro One
Apologies for the camera position - just trying to figure this out. Moving soon so will have a better setup.

Started concentrating more on which eye does my aiming, pretty startling results. I think you really have it down Stan, and your hard work to fully understand CTE has been amazing. Thanks for your continued sharing of your work to help people fully understand.
So the visuals are objective but...
A) you need to determine which visual to use.
B) you need to determine which eye or eyes to view them with
& C) you then need to determine if it is an inside or outside pivot?
Is there a clear explanation on how to accomplish the above three tasks?
^^^ I sincerely hope the above question is not viewed as harassment.
My sense of humor was not accepted well but my interest in learning is still genuine.

A. Yes, Basically, 2 CTE perceptions make every shot on the table. Yes, as a person learns the system there is only one correct choice except for the single interchange. The choices are objective....your choices lead to pocket connections.
B. Yes, either eye or any focal point toward the middle is perfect. What matters is that your visual alignment during full stance matches your focal point at ball address.
C. Yes, very simple...a correct visual followed by the correct rotation connects to a pocket....it is not difficult to learn the proper rotations.
The system leads to unlocking the zillion shots on a table. This can be learned very quickly with a proper mindset. Just a few things to see and 2,sweeps.
DVD2,will covers your questions, too.

I thought about starting a new thread but hope I can get a question answered here. I am having some trouble with visual sweeps to the right. I hit almost everything center pocket when sweeping to the left. Does anyone else have problems sweeping one particular way? Could part of it be I have just been getting down the same way for so long without using Pro One that one sweep feels natural while the other does not? Thank you for any input.
I also run into this from time to time, usually when i don't play very often. You just have to practice and pay a lot of attention to your visuals. I think it is related to playing for years without using pro-one.
Have had the same issue, still do sometimes for certain types of shots. Oddly enough, my bad side switched - I used to be better from the left, then was better from the right, now back to the left again... 
For me, I think something about the pivoting motion with the left sweep is more natural, and for a right hander you can keep your eyes more in line on the way down. With the right sweep, I almost feel like I have to lean to the right a bit to make sure I come down into CCB properly, otherwise occasionally you can make that drop down move to CCB a little too straight and end up thick on the ball.
For me this is a very occasional mistake, almost never happens now, but it did, and the only "cure" was just practice and paying attention to my initial alignment and visuals and making sure I was dropping down from outside the initial visual and not just straight into the cueball. I basically worked that side until it was as natural as from the left.
