Opposite eye dominance problem..Huge..........

[genomachino]

Wouldn't hurt at all...........

Just called it like I saw it.

I guess my biggest problem with an aiming system wouldn't be learning the system, but un-learning the way I've been doing it for over 30 years (playing since I was 5).

But maybe I need to take that step if I ever want to play at the next level, because doing it the way I've been doing it for 30 years, I'm probably as good as I'm ever going to be.

hi there Winston,

It would be like when you walk in from outside and you have sunglasses on. You forget you got them on and your having touble seeing.

All of a sudden you realize the problem and you take them off.

Now you can see.

Most players envision the shot as good as they can. The problem is if they took off the sunglasses:dance: they could see it much better.

The adjustments are so slight but yet the results are huge.

Maybe some of the players that I've just helped:help: over the phone here can chime in a little.

For some it is kind of an eye opener and then again for some it is like:shocked: WOW!

I hope they do and maybe it will encourage you to give me a call:yeah: and I can help you take those darn sunglasses:dance: off.

715-563-8712 Talk to you soon geno.........

Hi Gene,

It's a pleasure to meet you. I just may take you up on that the next time I'm at the pool room. I would like to take my game to the next level, and if what you can show me will help me, I would certainly be willing to try it.

Just a few things about me. I've done some simple tests anyone can find online, and I've determined I am definitely right-eye dominant. But here's the catch. I have 20/20 vision in one eye, and 20/35 in the other. But it's my left eye that is 20/20 and my right eye (dominant) that's 20/35. I've been told by an optometrist that can distort my depth perception somewhat. I guess the real solution to that is to get glasses or contacts, so that I see the same out of both eyes.

Thanks for taking the time to talk to me and offer to help.

--Lance (Winston846)

 

[Winston846]

Too many haters on here and I just don't get it. Gene has been a valuable contributor on here for some time IMHO..

I agree, Gene is a credit to this forum and I'm glad to see him sticking it out. This forum can't afford to lose guys like Gene!

I agree completely. Perhaps the greatest thing about AZBilliards is the chance to talk to the pros and top instructors directly and they certainly don't have to offer up their time on here. The haters on here amaze me. They can sit there on their keyboard and bash these top players and instructors, yet probably can't make 3 balls in a row to save their lives. Makes no sense to me.

[Roger Long]

Hi there Roger,

You need to call me. You need to know how this works 100%.

I know you have a great passion for the game and would be the Perfect go to guy in the valley to help players with Perfect Aim.

If you would call me i could help you right over the phone to learn this and am looking forward to working with you.

We're working on the new video called Power Aiming with Perfect Aim.

Perfect Aim has come a long way in the last 2 years.

715-563-8712 Thanks again geno.........

I could have done this in a PM but I wamted players in the area to know what is transpiring here. If you will accept my offer here it would be huge as far as teaching in the valley and I know it would open alot of doors for you also.

This knowledge to you is Free. I just feel your the guy to go to there from what I've seen on AZ and heard from mutual friends.

Looking forward to workong with you.

Geno,

Believe me, it's still on my "Things-To-Do" list. I've just been so busy with cue work and lessons lately, that I haven't had time for "research and development." I probably shouldn't even be on these forums right now, but I'm glad I did check in because I just started working with one student who is having major problems with eye alignment. I'll be working with her again today and we'll see how it goes. I may be calling you sooner than I had planned. :grin-square:

Roger

 

[Roger Long]

Personally, I'd be interested to hear Roger's thoughts, if he decides to call you, and is willing to share.

Lou Figueroa

Lou,

I admit that I have dumped on Gene in the past, but that was because I felt he was going overboard in his use of these forums for free advertising. I know it's not my job to monitor that kind of stuff, but Mike (AZB owner) and I are long-time friends and team mates, and even though he knows that some people do indeed use his forums for free advertising, he doesn't really mind too much as long as they also contribute through helpful posts.

I think Gene has "come around" quite a bit as a poster in the last year or so, and I do think he is onto something with his emphasis on the importance of proper eye alignment. I know it's definitely a subject that I, personally, want to delve into more.

And for the record, I think you, too, are a very important contributor to these forums. I just think your intentions may have been misunderstood by some people here. I look forward to the day when everyone can "lay down their arms" and quit arguing about aiming systems. It's all so unnecessary.

oh, no doubt, Roger -- people are quick to jump down your throat if you criticize their "Friend" and that's all fine because what's important is that, if you feel someone is passing out over-hyped information, you can and should still be willing to speak up. Unfortunately, more and more here, criticism, no matter how well founded, is becoming a call for the mob to immediately take up pitchforks and torches. Fortunately -- if you filter about six guys -- that little mob goes away

Certainly, no one can argue that there is merit to seeing the balls properly. But at the same time Kranicki Lite is not all it's cracked up to be. Some people don't want to hear that, but fortunately, there are a lot of people who do. They read these "conversations" and get it no matter how loudly "the mob" howls in protest.

Hi there Lou,

I don't know if you niticed Lou but there are alot more than six players that are hyping Perfect Aim. There are 100s and 1000s all over the world.

The players on here that pretty much endorse it and know how much it has helped them are the ones that speak up and so call hype it as you say on AZ billiards.

These players are not paid to say these things. They say these things because of what they have experienced. How much it has hejped their games personally.

Your theories on it all being hype are based on nothing except your knowledge that this can't be true.

If I would have given you a real lesson in St Louis when I was there you would understand. But I guess that won't happen until I get there again.

It has to be pretty lonely place at the top of the Nay sayers when it comes to Perfect Aim.

I'm just saying,,,,, It does really help players alot.

Just look at the ones I helped on here. Their small testimonials are all glowing on here also.


Someday Lou.........

The "100's" are not here. Certainly not 1000s. I filter six and I do just fine. Maybe in your mind there are 100's and 1,000s, but hell, you even said you helped me out, so your claims are a tad suspect ;-)

In my life I taught a course for a couple of years that took me all over the country to teach individuals, small groups, and some groups as large as several hundred. So I suppose, like you, I could claim that all those people "hype" and "endorse" what I taught them.

But I wouldn't be that stupid.

Even though I taught them good stuff and usually got a Standing O at the end, I can comprehend that none of that means I am entitled to say all those people would "hype" and "endorse" or even remember what I taught them, a year removed. Endorsements -- I got reams of them in writing when we did follow up. Even so, I would never go about making claims about how all those people felt about my program the way you do.

I know a couple of things about PR, Geno, and all you are doing is spinning away. And all the spinning in the world don't make it so. Here's a free bit of professional advice: If you backed off on the outrageous claims -- just a bit -- it would actually help, not hurt, your credibility.

Louie,

What is he spinning? He has given his phone number for anyone to call him and get free advise. Please explain to us how he is making money on this concept.

Once again, you have decided to take the negative side. Please show us any positive statement you have ever made about a positive comment on AZ. You are MR. NEGATIVE on AZ. Here is a bit of advice: If you every once in a while make a positive comment about anything -- just a bit-- it would actually help, not hurt, your credibility on all of your negative comments.

How about you give out your phone number for anyone to call you for help on any of your theories on playing pool, or aiming, etc.?

 

[CocoboloCowboy]

I am surprise by now some writer for Inside Pool, or Billiard Digest has not got a copy of Geno's Perfect Aiming, and review the material in print.

Also I am surprise if it was not the hottest Pool Instructional in 30 years some company like PoolDawgs, Sterling Gaming, or Mueller would have the DVD in their catalogue.

But these two things have not happened, and I wonder why.

Lou Figueroa

You're crazy. He helps the majority for free. I've spent time with Gene and learned a lot about how I perceive and see. How is better understanding how you see/perceive as an individual a bad thing? How can you say that doesn't improve your game?

Do you think you see like me? Do you think you see like Gene? Or PJ? Or Mr. Roger Long? Do we all see/perceive identically?

Surely, you can't say "yes" because you have a Jesuit education - we know this. Therefore, Gene "claiming" he can help your game by teaching you how to better learn how your eyes see isn't an outrageous claim ---- it's a fact.

I'm lost as to how you would think the core of what he teaches would be considered an outrageous claim. He never said you couldn't miss or anything of the sort. He did say it'd improve your odds greatly -- and that's true.

Dave

P.S. If he annoys you with his posts--- just say that and call a spade a spade. However, you can't call him a snake oil salesman based on that. He markets himself hard; but, that's a separate issue than being a snake oil salesman. Can't knock him for that, imo.

Jeeze, Lou. Is it your mission to cruise the threads and rain on anyone that is trying something new and different? Cuz it sure seems like it.

I really enjoy your posts, when you aren't in a crusade to debunk anything posted here. It's a shame, because I'm afraid that's all anyone new here will think when they see you posting in a thread.

Just my thoughts, worth exactly what you paid for them. I hope you find some time to have some fun.

Hi there Lou,

When I give a personal lesson the player can actually see what they need to do to make their aiming ability better. I am very confident with what I teach. It's the players themselves that are telling everyone how much it helped them. Info and stuff they have never seen before anywhere.

the 23 AZers that I sent videos to and then did a phone lesson with all gave their reviews on the thread Perfect Aim review by AZer's for AZers. The testimonials were all pretty glowing. Pretty much 100% success rate if I don't say so myself. All these guys were told just to tell it the way it was. If they didn't think it helped they should say so.

Most of them went a little over board because they were excited about what they learned.

The original Perfect Aim thread that I think went about 90,000 hits was full of 100's of testimonials.

I know what I have here and I'm trying to make it better than ever by right now making a New video that will make it easier than ever to understand Perfect aim.

I really don't know how you can continually make outrageous claims about what I teach when in all reality you have no real idea what it is. I didn't show you because even in person I couldn't get past your barriers and I gave up on you real quick.

Someday when you learn what it is I teach and can see it for yourself you'll have a great big old fat egg on your face.

And very deserving.

Have a great day geno...........

Havin' a ball and trying to get ready to play in the US Open 1Pocket out in Vegas in May. I'll probably go two and out but I'll still have a great time I'll also be in Chicago for a few day, NYC, and will be spending a couple of weeks in Italy (driving through Tuscany) and Greece (laying out on a beach). So thanks for your concern about my fun level.

And I guess I've never been one to stand mutely in a crowd -- always been willing to speak up and mention the emperor is not wearing any clothes.

Lou Figueroa

No Clue lou,

Sounds like your going to have some fun but you have no clue about Perfect Aim. If you did you would understand that his book really has nothing tho do about what I teach. The only simularity is he talks about dominant eye.

I couldn't get past first base in showing you anything. You knew it all and it sounds like you still do. It must feel good to be so smart.

My father used an old saying and I still remember it loud and clear.

He said in order for a person to learn you had to be smart enough to listen and dumb enough to follow through, of maybe it was just the opposite. Dumb enough to listen and smart enough to follow through.

Your just too smart either way you say it.

Just keep shooting the way you do and have fun. That is what this game is all about , having fun. Have fun and don't worrt about all these players that are learning something that is helping their game so much and so quickly.

This is something you don't ever have to worry about.

You have convinced me that you really do believe what you say. This will protect you from learning alot of things.

What happens when you find out how really well it works?

Oh oh.............

Have a great day geno...........
