The current crop of pro players who have been instructed by Stan are certainly excited about the method and how it's bumped their games up. So are the amateurs who have used it for years, however most quit posting on here because they're sick of the ANTI-GANG.
Too bad many 'how to shoot better pool' books eventually fizzled, became dust gatherers on collector shelves, and didn't give people any long lasting excitement or satisfaction.. Those who bought into many of those books' principles and systems ended up not using them at all. Some of the authors didn't/don't even use the methods themselves.
It's certainly not because the concepts become so internalized that players "don't have to even think about it".
I read where one guru states there are 15-20 mathematical calculations for places to aim at the object ball......(I'd like to see the guru demonstrate that bit of nonsense)
Another guru indicates "it's all elementary, my dear Watson, just use my formulas and you'll be on easy street...most of the time I think"
There's a reason this foolishness has failed and is still failing.
It's because the ideas just don't work as stated since nobody can see so many mathematical calculations over the face of the OB and CB as well as the outside of the OB by their imagination when it's beyond a 1/2 ball hit.
But, the writers did make money from the efforts and still do. Never hurts to sell "HOPE".
In the carnivals we called HOPE 'alibi joints' and 'flat stores'.
Stan Shuffett's TRUE CTE method of aiming does not rotate around "HOPE".
