yes right pivot
Maybe your losing your visual on the way to the shot! Or you're a little
afraid of overcutting the ball and somehow compensating for it!! Keep
at it it will come!!
The one thing that can be confusing is calling the CTEL and A/B/C lines "aim lines" when they are more like "eye position lines." That is, you use these lines to establish the perfect eye position for the fixed cue ball. Once you have the fixed cue ball, you are done with the eye position lines. How the center line of the fixed cue ball is oriented to the eye position lines is irrelevant, don't worry about it. From here you are a 1/2 tip sweep from the shot line.
Stan, I worked on this for about 4 hours today!! Wow what a difference!!
I found this confusing as well when I read it earlier on the thread. My first instinct in thinking about an aim line is it is the line I aim the CB and OB on to pocket the object ball. Some days I read here and feel like I learn a bunch of things and then read something else that throws all I read before haywire. LOL
That is the nomenclature. Just saying, it can be confusing. Early on I thought "aim line" was something literally you would aim your cue down. When I first started I was also trying to keep both lines in sight when moving in on the cue ball. Only many discussions later did that become clear.
My stance when down on the shot, is pretty square. For both sweeps, I rotate the cue from left to right.
Right Sweeps - I bend down first towards CCB and then rotate the cue.
Left Sweeps - I rotate the cue and my left shoulder while standing, and then bend down towards CCB.

Great video Stan ! Very informative. If possible can you do a video showing the one line visual lineup for edge to A or C and the 1 / 8 overlap shots. I'm trying to put my bridge hand in the same spot each time and without having a ctel to put my hand 1/2 tip from it, it makes it a little harder. Maybe there a trick to it that I'm not seeing.
Thx,
This will be covered on DVD2.
Also, I will take your request and put it with 2 or 3 other very good suggestions and over time I will continue to add support videos.

I have a question which i couldn't figure out.
30 degrees cut to the left - Center to edge, edge to A, left pivot
35 degrees cut to the left - ???
25 degrees cut to the left - ???
These little differences are what confuses me
You may reply here or PM me the answers.
Thanks

Thank you for your interest!
This information and my perception work will be on DVD2.
Thanks for your patience.

slight differences done the same way
A very straight shot,
I would do it at CTE, edge to C, left pivot.
A very tiny cut, still CTE, edge to C, left pivot.
If i were to do it robotically How should i adjust? from my pivot? from my perception? or from bridge hand?

Your answer is in perception.
There is NO adjustment in the system concerning the slight differences in the 2 similar shots that you described.
