Question for champ2107 Hey champ2107 - Just curious - why is your sig line "Patrick Johnson" ????? .

Looking for a used 2 dvd set: Banking With The Beard - The Movie. I would be willing to trade my CTE/Pro One DVD for the set if anyone is interested.

A Bonus From CTE In the league I play in, there are four different bars that still use the oversize cue ball. These have always given me problems with aiming. I even bought one of the larger balls so I could practice at home before league night. It helped some, but I still had problems...

My Entry Thanks for the contest. 5, 9, 15, 23, 33, 38 1, 4, 6, 9, 19, 43 4, 6, 19, 43, 46, 52

But what about shots that are between the 90 shot angles that your system uses? If you're relying on pocket slop for the shot to go, then the system can't be exact or precise. I suppose it will work if you use "feel" to adjust for those other shots, though.

What I should have stated was: I used center to right edge of ob, left side of cue ball to A on the ob, with a half tip right pivot (cue tip starts right of center cue ball before the pivot). Thanks for catching that & I'll make yet another correction to post #9. As far as the bridge...

Thanks for pointing that out. The cue ball should be at grid location 18. I've edited my orig post ( #9 ), so hopefully no confusion.

Some Tips Some tips that help me: A general tip is to learn the basic manual pivot cte well, before tackling the pro one part. 1 On the DVD, stan refers to "Aim Points" of A, B, & C. This causes some confusion for some of us. The first week, I assumed that Aim Points were to aim at...

Thanks for your generous offer. Something else you might consider, is to copy the instructions to a .PDF file. You could then send the material by email. If the original is in book or pamphlet form, the spine can be cut from it by one of the copy places like Staples. Once cut,it's easy to...

When I click the signature link, It take me to a post you made last December that has another link ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7023/ ) When this link is clicked on, it takes me to Firefox Add-Ons page, with the message: " We're sorry, but we can't find what you're...

Sounds like the AcCueShot. Check it out at: http://www.accueshot.com/ .

Worked slick as snot. Wasn't really too tight also. Many Thanks. Finding out how simple it is makes me feel kind of dumb, but it's not the first time. Thanks again. .

"The internet is like a herd of performing elephants with diarrhea -- massive, difficult to redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining, and a source of mind-boggling amounts of crap when you least expect it." But the good news is: The ignore feature on this forum can be your friend. .

I'll Second That !! Fully agree with you on this. .

I want to clean and lube the 3 jaw chuck on my lathe that I bought used (so no manual with it). My headstock and chuck are a 1.4" bore, and I would like to know how to remove the chuck so I can get to the snap ring on the back for disassembly. I found a taig manual showing the smaller bore...

Ahhh, the good ol days. I'm old enough, and was raised as a kid in a place that still used outdoor toilets. For the youngsters on this forum, one of the joys of using one of those outhouses on a hot, humid summer day, was having flies buzz around your ass... Not really dangerous or painful...

Grid Layout For anyone wanting a grid layout that you can print out & diagram different shots, this is what I whipped up for my use. To copy it, right click on the image and select Save Picture As... then take it from there.

Solution To My Problem Shots The problem turned out to be my bridge distance on the 2 shots I was having problems with. After reading the Glossery on the dvd and using the recommendations under "Bridge Distances for Basic CTE (Just Cue It Recommended)", I was able to make the shots with no...

The 2nd problem shot is at 24:50. Since both of these shots are right pivots, I'm going to work on that aspect. I'm not really confused so much as I just need to work on the shots as shown on the dvd. Thanks for the offer of help though. I may take you up on that later.

Thanks for getting me to the point where I can discount the table making a difference. Now to experiment with my bridge placement & pivot. The hint about using ghost ball experience to confirm the setup would probably be good for ghostball users, but I've never been able to see the ghost...
