What is your PSR?

Well then you just don't understand it. Buy the book.
Back to back post by the two biggest aiming haters on AZ that they have a system that that is objective with no feel that accounts for CIT.
LMAO

Hardy, har-har.
Lou Figueroa
great to see everyone
in such a happy mood
this morning
A typical amount of CIT is accounted for in the Poolology numbers. In your YouTube clips you say that you usually like to stun the balls in. How do you adjust CTE aiming to account for the additional throw caused by a stun shot? In fact, how does a simple visual perception that leads to a ccb alignment to center pocket account for for any CIT? Especially knowing how speed and cut angle affects the exact amount of throw.
I am always honest in what I post here. Unfortunamente, you only seem to appreciate that quality when it suits you.
Lou Figueroa
CTE is a natural overcut alignment system. CTE does extremely well with most sliding cue balls. I rarely adjust for stun!
Stan Shuffett
To work "extensively" with fractions, anyone would understand that the exact mathematical fraction needed to pocket a ball is not the proper fraction to for aiming, due to CIT. So maybe in your extensive work you were not aiming at the correct fractional hits in the first place.
You get very upset when people say incorrect things about CTE based on their lack of knowledge. To say fractions can not account for CIT is simply incorrect.
You are misreading me in thinking that I'm upset. Actually I have been LMAO all morning.
Stan Shuffett
Ok. So fractions can't be designed to overcut? And does CTE naturally overcut every shot angle or just certain angles? I'm just curious how the ball hits center pocket when the exact amount of CIT is dependant on speed, angle, and what the cue CB is doing when it strikes the ob, ie... spinning, sliding, rolling, etc... A stun shot on a 1/2 ball hit from 4 ft out would miss the pocket. An aiming adjustment would be needed, even with CTE. If not, then the shot must really be targeted for an overcut, which would not be center pocket if you shot it with no stun.
I'm not specifically talking about today. I'm talking about numerous times over the last few months, probably years, but I didn't read all of those posts, the ones before I joined AZ.
Way to go, One Pocket John
-------------Great post. Thanks.
I'm in my 70's. Took a 10 year break from pool. Started back 7 years ago and quickly realized I couldn't pocket balls and play position like I did in the past. In the past I was probably down on the shot maybe 3 seconds or less before pulling the trigger.
After reading your post I did a bunch of research on the Internet, sure enough processing time increases with age.
Then I went to YouTube and paid attention to how long SVB, Dennis Orcollo and Alex P. stayed down on the shot before pulling the trigger. SVB and Dennis stayed down on the shot for approx. 5 seconds before pulling the trigger. Alex stayed down approx. 3 seconds before pulling the trigger.
I have incorporated this time extension into my PSR. I'm finding that adding this time (5 seconds) allows for my brain to coordinate the correct muscles in my arm and hand for a better feel of the shot.
I would have never thought of this issue in a million years. Thanks
John

You have not walked in my shoes being called a liar, a huskster, a con artist, a cult leader, a criminal and more. You damn right I've been fired up a few times over the years.
All in the name that CTE can't work as described.....I wouldn't be human if I didn't have emotion. My strength is is that I know how to channel it for the positive.

Today is the one day per month when I spend all day playing pool at the local pool hall. I start around 1:00 and do not stop or take a break until closing time 13 hours later. Nice 9ball tournament and a lot of one-pocket side side action.
I am going to focus on my PSR!! Every shot! With me luck. Well, you don't have to....I believe a person makes their own luck by being observant and recognizing opportunities and potential pitfalls.
Have a good day everyone! Whether you play by feel or system or a little of both, knock the eyes out of em!

I understand. It's your baby, your pup, or at least your adopted pup. But you've raised it, so it's yours. I feel the same way about my material. And I'm sure Mosconi would be fuming if he was around today listening to or reading the misinformation ignorantly spouted out concerning his first book.
Have a good day Stan.
It's like Bob Jewett said over in the Instructors's forum. He does not visit here much because there is a lot of ignorance here.
I am having a very good day. Lou and Dan are on record as declaring Poolology as a no feel on tweak system [ by pro standards] system.
I am assuming that PJ at this point concurs with your declaration until I hear differently.
I would really appreciate AT LARGE's input concerning the adjustment factor for Poolology whether it exist or not.
I would think that Dr Dave would provide some input since he has never confirmed any aiming ever to be no feel as a pro center pocket system. I would think his input is imperative. The same goes for Bob Jewett....His work is well respected world wide.
Why I am I interested? If another system exist that will do what CTE does I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT IT FOR REAL. MY ORDER IS IN.....
