Im going to try an officially retire from the cte battle threads now, since more guys are posting there good results and go to the cte tips threadslol
Eric missed this post, Champ. :grin:

My "personal grudge" is directed at the "personal affection" CTE users seem to have for posting misinformation. For the record (once again) the "offset stance" excuse is brainless nonsense.
That would be a good trick, considering we've never met or corresponded.
More misinformation from CTE users...

does it make sense to me? Not really, but that doesnt mean it wont work...im just saying.
Tip: there is no ctel visual on your bottom 1/8
... Tip: there is no ctel visual on your bottom 1/8
Please expand on why? It may be important.
LAMas -- Under Stan's CTE, for very thin cuts, there is no center-to-edge visual (no CTEL), because it would be way out into space rather than on the OB edge. Instead, Stan's alignment line is simply the inside 1/8 point on the CB aligned with the outside 1/8 point on the OB. Sight this single line, offset the stick 1/2 tip from center (left or right as the shot requires), pivot, and shoot.
You do several things differently from what Stan teaches, and this apparently is one of them.
It's definitely not "precisely accurate". I know this because the CTEL, aiming points and pivots only define 6 "precisely accurate" aiming instructions for each direction, which isn't enough to make all shots.
I don't know what you mean by "finite".

I believe the 1/8-1/8 alignment is a substitute for the "C" aimpoint. It doesn't make sense to say there's no CTE line - how could that be? It also doesn't make sense when Stan says to substitute the 1/8-1/8 aimline for the "C" aimline, since, although they're geometrically the same alignment, they have different eye positions, but that's not why Stan says to substitute. He says to substitute because the "C" alignment makes you "aim into space" - but they both do that. Just one more illogical thing about CTE.LAMas -- Under Stan's CTE, for very thin cuts, there is no center-to-edge visual (no CTEL), because it would be way out into space rather than on the OB edge.

If you ever back up anything you say with an actual supporting fact, I might stop considering you just part of the incessant CTE "noise" here.False, false, false!! You're just a CTE/Pro-1 "TROLL!!"

Really? Explain how 1/8-1/8 differs from edge-1/4.If your using the 1/8 to 1/8 you are no longer aiming into space, pretty brilliant little adjustment by Stan. Concrete points to aim and align with, I LOVE CTE/ PRO-ONE.
LOL. Are you sure you didn't mean "alimentary"?pablocruz:
your elemantary smarts

You figure it out! You think you have everything else figured out, which obviously you don't by this elementary equation!!

A couple of questions, Stan:This post shows your hole cards. If you would have worked the system, you'd understand. OBC is not an accurate aim point for .5 tip pivots for left cuts within the context of CTE/PRO ONE.
Why isn't it simply pointed out on the DVD?It does take work on the table to know that.
A couple of questions, Stan:
1. How is OBC "aiming into space" and 1/8-1/8 not? They're geometrically the same CB/OB alignment (although presumably different eye positions).
2. If OBC and 1/8-1/8 are both thinner than OBB but different, how can one be "wrong"? Are you saying there's no thin cut angle that corresponds to OBC?
Why isn't it simply pointed out on the DVD?

1. LCBE to OBC places CCB into space. 1/8 LCBE to 1/8 ROBE obviously places CCB into space.
2. OBB and 1/8 aim points complete the system for left cuts. OBC is not needed. OBC is flawed in the context of CTE/PRO ONE. I learned that at the table. I just did not go to 1/8 out of the blue.
Why did I need to say it on the DVD? I excluded OBC for left cuts. OBB works up to thin cuts and then 1/8 works for very thin cuts. OBC as an initial aim point is simply not needed for left cuts.
