I really like Bert Kinister's 3 drills for the: Short Game, Middle Game, and Long Game. There's variation, so it doesn't get as boring. Short Game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9bws47rM-A starts at 3 minutes So you set up the formation the same time each time, but set them up in any...

I don't understand the point of this thread. Why are we really arguing about what a champion does or doesn't do? It obviously hasn't made anyone in this thread, or anyone who argues in similar threads a champion. Who are any of us to try and claim what a champion does or doesn't do? I just don't...

Also I think you missed the point. With my cut-out, it shows how pivoting will naturally give you the right amount to turn to make the shot. If you're trying to land in the center of the cueball, there is a point that is to far, a point that is not far enough, and a point that is just right. If...

Fixed: Probably shouldn't have used the term pivot point, because it's not the same as pivoting to thicken or thin a cut... I also didn't account for the fact, that as you move over to the left to be able to line up the edge of the CB to the center of the OB, that edge of the CB also...

Whoa, whoa, slow your roll...I don't think any of us is calling Ghost Ball objective.

Weeeee!!!!.... I'm pretty sure the two lines should run parallel, but the last center diamond should be more to the left if it were 3D Edit: Ooooh I'm an idiot. Since it's 2D, the Center point, as the lowest point we would see on the CB, should actually be represented by being in the middle of...

Wait, we weren't arguing about pivot systems?, just CTE?. Well this has been a waste of time. I understand if you question the validity of all pivot aiming, but poking at the most complex one is silly. CTE is a pivot system, and pivot systems work. The fact that visuals might require a longer...

Why would bridge distance matter? I could understand if you tried to factor it in after you finished pivoting in to center. But based on the cutout, if the bridge length is determined from the beginning, it will adjust how much you pivot.

So here's an idea: Make a flat paper cut-out like this image. Attached together to swing on a thumbtack. This should give a good idea on how pivot aiming works. You line the arrow up with the edge to edge line, and then you turn the tip of the cue until it points at the center of the cue...

I don't understand what you're asking. Are you asking him to go get paid a thousand dollars to show that he can't learn CTE? (cause that sounds like free money) Or are you asking him to go stand in a room and after a certain amount of time, simply say that Stan is subconciously aiming each...

Yeah, let's call them out personally with money bets, again, for the billionth time. Cause that's worked every other time it's been suggested, and we've clearly resolved the issue.

I can't tell if my posts are just so crazy, that people just ignore them. I'm trying my best, not to just give the same arguments as those before me, and I'm trying to brainstorm different ways of looking at the problem, but apparently all anyone wants to do, is argue about definitions.

Bingo. But try and think of the "mother" angles as categories. An actual 15 degree cut in the category of 15 degree perceptions, is no more important as say a 10 degree cut (which would also be categorized as a 15 degree perception). You wouldn't do anything different in terms of how you follow...

Depending on the relationship of the object ball and cueball, when you use a perception to line up Edge to A (for example), and Center to Edge, each time you will always line up Edge to A, and Center to edge for shots that fit into that category. But depending on the steepness of the cut...

I think a lot of it has to do with what or who a player is exposed to while they're learning. I think in the past, to be successful at pool, meant you had to have personality and character, and your own sense of style and flare. Pool was more about self-expression and more art than sport. I...

Unfortunately it's just a 60 dollar player's cue. It plays pretty okay, but isn't an HXT shaft. As for the J/B cue, it has a turbo lock, so if I have to go anywhere now, I just put it on the table partially disassembled.

I have the HXT30, and it's also a decal cue. I've always been really fond of sneaky pete type cues, and I have a player's sneaky pete, and a sneaky pete J/B cue. Only problem is, randoms keep taking my cues, thinking they're house cues, and I have to go hunt them down. I'm considering buying...

Weird, I started with an OB Classic Pro, and now I'm shooting with an HXT. I really want to buy the E10. Is it as pretty in person? But yeah, when I first bought an OB shaft to put on my Dufferin Butt, it was too much cue for me to handle. I hated it. I pulled it out last night, after it been...

The cue is a 20 ounce cue with a 4 oz weight bolt Full cue, the balance point is exactly where the top of the wrap ends Just the butt, the balance point is 5 inches from the top of the wrap. I want to move the balance point forward enough, to move my hand about 3-4 inches back.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I'm not holding it on the actual balance point. But my grip location is directly influenced by where my cue's balance point is. And I understand the theory between heavier and lighter bolts. By I want to know the actual numbers. How far forward would the balance point...
