3D perspective with foreshortening where the CB appears larger than the OB? You can ask PJ to do that...except he is banned.

No feel involved if you know what fraction of the cue tip to aim at the edge of the OB. Granted that when th OB is far away, that fraction become minuscule. This thread is about describing what phenomena/steps are required to aim using versions of CTE and not - it feels right.

Here is a visual of crowding:

I am just killing time now that Trump won. Pivoting systems of aiming are not parsimonious so I don't embrace them at the table but use it as an academic pursuit here on my CAD and keyboard. As most know, I use DD and CP2CP aiming at the table. Easy for me but not everybody and some need...

Stan, Thanks. Anyone looking at my diagrams realizes that this is not the answer but a primer for those that want to embrace a pivot in their aiming. They have to appreciate the daunting task of making the tip offsets work at various separations between the CB and OB to pocket the OB while...

The previous examples were the 1/2 tip shift to the right of the center of the CB and aiming at the right edge (3:00 o'clock) of the OB. Post pivot the new aim line is aimed within the OB. Here is the example of a 1/2 tip shift to the left of the center of the CB and aiming at the right edge of...

Back to the topic: Updated to add that with a 13mm diameter tip, and 1/2 of it shifted to the right so that the side of the tip is aimed at the center of the CB, the cut angle on the OB is 15 degrees to the left as shown when the separation between the CB and OB is one diamond. To achieve the...

CTE with 1/4 tip offset at one diamond CB to OB separation = 15 degree cut angle. CTE with 1/4 tip offset at two diamond CB to OB separation = 7 degree cut angle. CTE with 1/4 tip offset at three diamond CB to OB separation = 1 degree cut angle. At four diamond separation one would be...

How about pivoting at impact with the CB? Swoop anyone?:smile:

If you want to use a pivot then try this: Put the OB in the center of the table with the CB on the spot. Put your Bridge/hand 12.0” behind the CB. Drop down with the center of the CB aimed at the right edge of the OB, shoot and mark where the OB touches the far rail. This is approx. 30 degree...

These adjustments have to be memorized to be effective and the recalling of them is a conscious act.

You could also try different tip offsets pre-pivot.

Yes and thanks for noticing the missing decimal point as it is in the right triangle angle calculator. I enjoy and at times benefit from the peer reviews on AZB.

Pivot: 1/2 tip offset from center of the CB = ~.25" Bridge distance behind the equator of the CB = 12" After pivoting the center of the tip to the center of the CBThe included angle is ~1.19 degrees. The CB will travel away from the initial 1/2 tip line by 1.19 degrees post pivot all the way...

If you are cutting the OB to the left, are the 15 dots between the center of the OB and it's right edge or 7?
