A real CTE shot for you to try.

What's to learn? I've never tried a shot with CTE (likely never will), and as far as I can tell I understand it better than any of the CTE experts here. That's not bragging - it isn't much of a feat.

"Never hit a ball" "as far as you can tell"

Really, that's all you have after 20 plus years,lmao.
 
So Stan reinvents how to look at pool balls with CTE yet he still looks at the ob last because that is how he learned? Not a convincing explanation.
Where did you get this info from? Don't see it actually posted anywhere.

Again, not convincing in bold considering everything about CTE is different from traditional aiming, or that's what you guys keep saying. More importantly, what I'm getting at is why mohrt gets a different result than I do. One of those differences is that he is looking at ob last (best I can tell from his video but not actually sure) while I am looking at cb last. If you weren't so defensive all the time we would be able to consider whether that is important in explaining the difference.
Looking at CB last is one of the CTE drills. However i still look at OB last when actually playing pool.
What matters most is CCB.

I’m looking at the CCB. During instruction mode I do cycle between AL/SL, stepping and CCB. Stan said recently his attention to the OB is nothing more than a “gaze”. FWIW.
 
I haven't discredited anything. In case you hadn't noticed I am using the occasion of monty's thread to ask detailed questions about CTE so that I am sure we are on the same page.
I hadn't noticed because that's not what you are actually doing.

Learn what a sight line is and it's exact relationship with the CB and OB and table. Have you done this yet?

THEN YOU REPLIED:

YOU JUST POSTED IT RIGHT HERE:

I'm sure Stan has been taught a personal eye pattern. It's one of the things PBIA instructors teach. I look at the OB last because i believe that's how pool is supposed to be played.

WTF???

I'm trying to get at something a little deeper. If you chose to look at cb last and in fact never looked back at the ob after finding tne NISL would you pocket balls just as well?

So are you saying in normal play you don't look back at the ob after finding the NISL at the cb? Also, Stan darts back and forth between cb and ob twice before shooting. I would not characterize that as a gaze. People do that in normal play to assure themselves that the shot looks like it is on.

Personally i don't think anybody would, although i am sure there are players that do

Yes, I have. Had you been paying attention I can pocket the center ball shot as an inside B without looking at the ob after finding the NISL.

Well, we all started making balls with CTE before digging deeper. Maybe you should try that approach.
 
Nope, never said that.

More twisting of words.
Wow. I'm beginning to see a pattern here. I told you about the banks video where only the rail underneath him and possibly the near corner rail are visible and you said, "So Stan can still see rails and then the experience of the different CTE visuals takes over." And now you say you never said that. Very odd, and the second time you've done that on the same page.

So, you can make what you have determined to be an exact half ball hit but no other shots. Move on and figure out the next shot.

I said " rails" not rail. There is a huge difference.
 
I said Stan has his own personal eye pattern, and I look at the OB last. Not sure why you have a problem with this.
I think I liked you better when you didn't have anything but insults to add. You call me a wordsmith? lol.

I don't even eat milano's any more.

So where is my insult in this statement?

I sold my cookie route so don't really care if you eat milano's, lol. Tahoe is the best PF cookie by the way.

Reading comprehension anyone? lol j/k. I said I prefered when you were just insulting people rather than trying to take part in a discussion, sort of, as you are here.

I stopped eating anything with sugar or refined carbs other than fruit. Can't say I see a ton of difference but it is supposed to be healthier for you.

I probably glance up at the OB especially in tougher shots to check things over, but I look at CCB last. By check things over, I mean check that NISL connection to OB looks correct. If it’s obviously incorrect I would stand up and start over. That would happen if say, I chose the wrong pivot. What I would not do is use the OB to adjust the NISL.
