It is a really good book, worth reading several times.
And why would I deny or believe that about Allison? Stan has a good reputation as an instructor, so of course he's likely to get anyone coming through the door. The only thing I would find hard to believe is that she converted to CTE aiming.
I didn't state that nor was it stated about Gerda. However, they both were doing things before ever getting the lessons that involved offsets and sweeping. That was determined right away when the lessons got started. If you think pro players are playing like you as a noser with 20 fractions to decipher, you're sadly mistaken.
That would be silly to insinuate. In your mind, every champion player that leaves Stan's facility adopts CTE and abandons their noser style aiming. It's silly, in a funny way, but certainly nothing to get bent out shape over when someone points out how silly it is.
Pros aren't typically nosers. That isn't how they play. But you wouldn't know that since you've never given a lesson to a pro.
I believe she and Gerda and many other champions have had instruction from Mark Wilson also. Does that mean they adapted his method of aiming, which I believe is ghostball. No, of course not. Mark Wilson understands that aiming itself is never the problem with experienced players.
Different instructors have their own views on what is important and what isn't. Aiming isn't Mark Wilson's focus or strength. Landon knew far more than Mark Wilson about aiming when Mark was the coach for their college team.
But like I said, you guys can believe want you want. The way I see it, the fact that Allison got a set of Stan's DVDs is about as meaningful as getting a free bumper sticker from your favorite candidate at a political rally. Most of those stickers never get used.
Anyhow, peace out.
Don't bet on it and neither Gerda or Allison would say that. But you would. I wondered how long it would take you to throw out one of your low class/no class comments like this one.
What would they have done if they bought your ebook or book on Poolology?
Oh wait, they wouldn't have bothered to begin with and never will because it has zero meaning to them and be totally useless.
