Sound like nothing earth shaking you diescribed via SKYPE , by you own statement, "I have worked with a number of different instructors over the last 10 years or so", they did not turn you into a DCC Champion?

Honestly most of what you mentioned about eye placement, shot alignmentent, has been covered by Ray Martin, Willie Mosconi, and Dr. Dave on adming, and shot making. Books, U-Tubes, and DVD's. I am going out on short limb, bet most Pro have made a 1/2 to million shots over their practicing and career.

Jesus fucking Christ man. Everybody knows your posts are hilariously stupid and not even deserving of replies 99% of the time. But like, shut up. This guy is selling a proprietary method/product that some people are finding useful and worthwhile. You, somebody who does not play pool for all I can tell, are in here trying to shit on it for what? Get a fucking life

Hi there highkarate, I like your style. He's been doing this for 16 years to Perfect Aim. Follows my posts like a shadow. Probably my best customer as far as reading everything. I think he's going a little senile. His replies don't make much sense anymore. Kind of mixed up. I feel kind of sorry for him. I hear he's a nice guy.

I probably went a bit overboard maybe I was having a bad day. Apologies to you cowboy for being so crude. I still don’t understand the baseless hate from somebody who has zero stake in it. Hope everyone has a good day

After almost 30 years of teaching Perfect Aim I have uncovered the whole story with the eyes. Any player that I do a lesson now can learn how their eyes work and know it is correct. You can see it is correct with your own eyes.

I'm doing lessons now on the internet with Skype or facetime and it works just as well as me being there in person. I have the player right on the big screen in my living room.

I sort of agree with you, it's not how your eyes work, its how your brain interperts what YOUR eye sees, it's not eye, hand, coordination, it's eye, brain, hand, coordination, I found my eye tells my brain that my stroke is TRULY straight about 1/2" to the right from the center of my nose, when I aim using this part of my eye, my brain tells my arm that my cue is moving straight, a pro billard showed me this in my very 1st lesson, here's a great drill, I call it "whitey don't lie" , put the cue ball on the foot spot and an object ball on the head spot, hit the cue ball center ball and drive the object ball to the rail, if your stroke is truly straight and you hit the object ball dead center, the object ball will come back and will drive the cue ball back over the foot spot, it's a truly humbling drill, you will be doing well if the object ball comes back and hits the cue ball somewhere CLOSE to center... .

Well, we did the Perfect Aim lesson tonight. Nature boy was a good person to teach and understood what was going on before VS now. Needless to say he will never look at the quite the same again and for the better. The review will come in a few days. Had a great time.

This is the basis for a good prop bet. Put the cash under the center diamond on the head rail. Cue ball on the head spot, object ball on the foot spot. Drive the object ball into the rail with a stop shot, have it come back and hit the cue ball. The cue ball has to roll across the money to collect or each person adds to the pot if nobody collects on that round. In the unlikely case that running across the money is too easy, turn it end on. A single ball on the head rail for the final target works too.

Few people can do this with any consistency. Oddly enough, the ones that can usually are good but not great players. They are the people that you see come in and work on drills six or eight hours but very rarely play other people. As a result other areas of their game are lacking. I watched a guy practice drills for hours a day for several years. Was kind of a zen thing for him, he was seeking perfection. Fantastic pure shot maker but not a competitor. A high C or low B player could take him.

Thanks Gene. I really enjoyed our lesson.

I’ll be honest and say that I was slightly hesitant as I’ve never used any kind of aiming system and didn’t want to do anything to make me second guess myself. However, I adapted quickly and do not personally feel it is an aiming system, but a way to “look” at each shot.

Gene is a great guy, patient, and very passionate about the game and his instruction. If anyone is considering him, I would highly recommend it.

You are 100% correct. It's only taken me about 25 years of teaching and observing what I was seeing with each and every student. It was like for those 25 years I was the student trying to learn this whole process.

The last piece of the puzzle was THE SHIFT. Not only do the eyes need to be in that one little spot to envision the shot correctly but the cue has to be in it's own spot also. Otherwise the player can't hit center ball well or get equal right and left English. In fact the eyes being in the most correct position will sabotage the players ability to get the cue in the correct position.

I had so much fun with this lesson because I knew that Nature Boy had no idea what exactly he was going to learn. And from the reaction I got as we went thru the lesson he could see what was going on and that it was correct because he could see it with his own eyes once they were positioned properly.

This is so important for the average player to learn because they almost have no chance to get this right, hitting a million balls from repetitions. Just can't play enough between working and life.

In my travels and teaching I did see 2 players that were doing this naturally but they were there sometimes and then sometimes not. Not consistent.

Thank You Nature Boy for letting me show off my Perfect Aim/SHIFT. And remember tuneups are free for life.

This is a huge shortcut to becoming a much better player and it will help players everywhere at any level get to where they are looking to go.

I got my free lesson with Gene via skype Friday afternoon. I was very impressed. I have worked with a number of different instructors over the last 10 years or so, from local instructors to pros traveling through. This was something very different. The whole time was spent working with my vision, what I see, how I see it, where I'm looking. We started out with a simple test shot from each side of the table that proved my eye dominance and located my vision center. I did not even realize that I had issues with one side vs the other. By making one simple shift, I was able to equalize both sides. Now comes the hard part, putting in the work to make this new reality permanent.

Thank you for the great review here. Cutting right or cutting left are not the same. Ones more natural and the other you manually have to make some adjustments. And you did and you saw the difference.

Outside right English or outside left English. One is more natural and the other not. Depends on which eye is dominant. Again you could manually fix the problem with the SHIFT.

If there were 100 players in the poolhall I could take everyone of them and show them they have the same exact problems but don't have a clue. Sometimes maybe a clue but definitely don't know how to fix it.

First I have to show them these hidden problems. Then I have to show them how to fix them. Once this is done for each player they know this is the answer. This is why missing the ball or getting out of line can be such a mess.

Once these 3 things are fixed everything starts to work. Now you can learn and now you can improve.

The real tough part is that almost all players won't believe it until they can see it with their own eyes. I don't blame them one bit. There is so much garbage out there on the internet that Perfect Aim just gets kind of lost in the mess.

Again. Thank you so much for your testimonial. We need to do a tuneup soon. Like I said tune ups are always free and don't take long.
 
I did a Perfect Aim lesson about 6 months ago with a now friend of mine, Tony.
When I originally did the initial lesson, Tony, was shooting under the right eye like a gun. His real dominant eye is the left. But being right handed, the cue is under his right eye in the preshot, and his stance is set up for the right eye. The only way to get the left eye in the dominant position is to move his stance a couple of inches to the right in the preshot and not let the eyes go back to the left, putting the right eye back in the dominant position.
Fortunately Tony has taken advantage of my unlimited tuneups and we have shot a few time together for 2 to 6 hours at a time.
In the original lesson I had decided to let Tony keep the right eye in the dominant position, like a gun, because he actually shot pretty good that way. I did it myself for about a year, cataract on my left eye, so I know what he is seeing and doing.
Friday night I finally had enough. I told Tony we need to go with the left eye as your real dominant eye position because that is your natural dominant eye. But the biggest problem in doing so, we created all the problems that Perfect Aim fixes when a player is using the dominant eye correctly.
Little by little the results were promising. I could see on some shots that Tony was just firing the shot in and it looked so natural with no doubt that he was going to make it. This but a big smile on my face because I knew we were on the right track.
We had to work on the stance again and move the stance a couple of inches to the right and get him coming down keeping his head to the right so that darn right eye would naturally keep working like the nondominant eye. And left the left eye stay where it needed to be.
We were playing on a 9 foot diamond at slate billiards so I could see that we were really making progress. It's almost like we had to do the Perfect Aim lesson again because now getting the left eye in the dominant position, we create all the problems that the player experiences that Perfect Aim fixes if they are getting the dominant eye in the correct position naturally or close to it.
This was one of my most rewarding lessons in a long time. They are all great because the player can improve very quickly, but Tony was kind of stuck in the twilight zone. He was where he could get using the eyes the way he was. He had a hard time improving. Some pro players do this, under the non dominant eye and play very well. I shot like that for a year and played almost as good. But there is no substitute for using the non dominant eye when you can learn to get over to the dominant eye.
I hope some of you can understand what I'm trying to say here. Sometimes I feel like a Martian teaching all the stuff with the dominant eye. And I get it , why nobody has ever figured this all out. The good news is I have, and I feel so blessed that I can take someone like Tony and totally change his eyes and get him on track to playing the best pool of his life.
Tony is a prime example of having such a high pool I.Q. and just not being able to get there before.
This is why we teach because when you can accomplish something like this with a player like Tony it's just a double amazing feeling. Most Perfect Aim lessons are just amazing. This with Tony was double amazing.

Kind of sad here straightline. I can talk and talk and talk and to almost everyone it sounds like a mess. It is a mess and everyone has it one way or another and they are just doing the best they can do with how they are doing it. I feel like an alien talking alien and nobody gets it. But when I do a lesson one on one and they can see one part at a time as we build the game plan for them they know it is 100% correct because they are getting the eyes and body in the most correct position and they can see it and feel it. It's a wonderful thing.

I feel kind of bad that I have been healing from a knee replacement and have missed out on doing about 20 lessons. I'm doing 2 this week and will continue doing 2 until I can walk and stand better. There is no rushing this total knee replacement. They say I'm doing good. I'd hate to see someone that is doing bad. I sure miss playing.

No worries. I see the difficulty of teaching and I'm not trying to hassle you. Great you found a good pupil. On that note, that post reminded me of TRex so that was what the comment was for. Just curious. I thought you mighta had some inside on the match. He did lose to Filler. Not much of a prayer having to take two straight from a guy who's already beat him. Oh well. Expect that I'll butt in if something doesn't register or compute. lol. Peace...
