:grin-square: bbb gave me some very sage advice over PM which I’m going to take. Oh, NB4 someone says “Satisfaction brought it back.” When I’m involved, the metaphorical cat is usually Schrödinger’s.

Lawd’a’mercy no. Heck I’m still going through Briesath’s beginner DVDs lol. I’m new but I know I’ll need an aiming system eventually. Soon I’ll be into Poolology and working through that. Then when this new CTE material is out, I figure why not? It’s extremely polarizing from what I’ve read —...

I’ll say this: when Mr. Shuffett releases his new material on CTE, I’ll certainly buy it. Not only that, but I’ll read it and spend significant time trying it. I don’t mean a couple days, I mean significant time. Hey, I’m essentially new, and I only have to gain, right? I’m in Tennessee, and...

Thank you! And to you sir. :)

But what if I were interested in your posts? Should I still ignore them? That’d be too bad because I couldn’t learn from them.

Who are the people in left field? Genuine question. I’m new and I’d like to know from an experienced member who these people are so that I know which advice to take with the proverbial “grain of salt.” Thanks!!! :cool:

Quick question: is this a “used cars” forum?

Did you read about Jerry Garcia’s connection to the CIA? Truth is stranger than fiction ain’t it? There are FBI documents about it dating back to 1968. :thumbup:

Well, I sure do love the game of pool, that’s a fact. Don’t y’all? I bet ya do! And Led Zeppelin is awesome.

Hello, father and son looking for patient instructor near Nashville TN. Thanks! ETA: will pay for instruction. Not looking for free hand-outs.

Oh, I just wanted to add that I really appreciate everyone’s help and advice. Of the few hobbies I have, so far this has been the most new-member friendly forum I’ve found. My most sincere thank you to everyone :)

Hello! To be honest, I was doing a lot of reading here and Reddit, etc on CTE (well, just aiming in general). On the balance, although I found that CTE has its fans, the consensus seemed to weigh towards “forget about it and just learn fractional aiming, read Poolology,” so I went and ordered...

Got your PM! Thank you - will do ;)

I’d be more than happy to give a full review! I think I’m qualified in the sense that I’m really beginner-level but I desperately want to improve significantly. My current aiming system is ‘this sorta looks right.’ But then I sorta sink some balls and sorta botch others :embarrassed2: It should...

I’ve been mesmerized with Strickland during this Turning Stone. He looks to be back in his prime. If his break would go up just a notch... (not that I could do better, but I’m no pro and don’t pretend to be). But man that cat is lights out.

Gotcha ;-) Hit A Million Balls? :D

Oh that’s a great idea: favorite top female (only) players. Lee is a stone cold killer ain’t she? And not too hard on the eyes either ;) Not that women can’t be in anyone’s top three, it’d just be interesting to see how the ladies are ranked in a subjective poll such as this (meaning favorites...

Hmm... I have to admit I’ve watched a bunch of CTE vids on YTube, and this ‘pivoting’ that I saw was from “Lil Chris” who posted the first CTE video I could make some sense out of. You’re not going to hurt my feelings, if I’m way out on Pluto with this that’s cool, throw me in the right...

Okay, first, I am NOT trying to start a controversial thread! I’m (essentially) new and am fooling around with different aiming systems. So far, CTE is... well, a bit over my head. Having said that, this is likely a dumb question. Okay, so what is the purpose of pivoting back once you ‘aim’...

Fantastic! Thank you sir.
