From the author who brought us the SEE System for aiming....
Interesting blind aiming demo

The object ball should <BE> post screen. Simply closing your eyes while pulling the trigger would be even better. Open immediately after striking the cue ball to observe the shot in motion.

I don't understand. What does this mean?
Means obscured by the screen. You've seen countless posers close their eyes or turn their head away before shooting right? Well a while back it occurred to me that most of the difficulty in aiming is due to attempting to adjust for what you see in front of you and that most if not all of the aiming is in getting the cue stick to the cue ball properly. Towards that end I practice setting the stick in position and looking only at the cue ball.
I seem to remember another fella posting a video of shooting under a screen and getting pretty much crucified for it.
Dan White maybe. Funny this place. There's the apex wrong way, and everything else is simply not worthy.
Oh and typo. Fixed.
Glad he got rid of that gimmicky pivoting system .
Yea Cowboy Jimmy Moore played absolutely horrible with his pivot system.
lol, yes! I was simply demonstrating that pocketing balls under a curtain does not necessarily prove anything, other than the pockets are in the same place they have always been. Actually, Lou had a funny story about that. He was taking a lesson with, I want to say Ray Martin, but I could be wrong. In the middle of a run the power goes out and all they had was a little ambient light. Lou stopped but Ray said something like, "Go ahead and hit the ball. The pockets haven't moved in over 100 years."
And doesn't change the fact that Mr Samba does not pivot
Did he personally tell you that while you were chauffeuring him around?
Lots of great players have pivoted including one of your heroes. Busti pivots, yes he does.
Yawn. And Busti said it's a gimmick.
A very good too considering how good he has played doing it. Just imagine how good he would have been without that gimmick, lmao.
You're clueless.
This is what he said, " Di ko pinapakita saan ang pektus,"
Contact your cte Buddy in the Philippines for translation.
The one who was going to ask Efren if Efren took aiming lessons from an old man in PA.
3 years ago.
Oh wait.
LMAO
.When Busti missed an easy 10 ball against SVB in that 3 night TAR match, Busti actually quit stroking on the left side of the cue ball that night for a while.
Wait, LMAO
I don’t have a buddy in the Philippines that I know of. And the lessons were done in California. Please try to keep up.You're clueless.

And for how many years, and how many wins, and how many balls exactly did Busti pivot in. Hard to believe that you can’t even except the fact that Busti pivots.Oh wait.

Can you read?
He pivots from the left edge.
It's a gimmick.
You can't ACCEPT that.
And it hurts your feelings that the SAMBA dude no longer pivots..
It was a GIMMICK.
