Good video yes. Happy i don't have all that to worry about all that anymore though
Me too.
Actually I never used traditional fractional aiming (the "quarters system") because of the guesswork it involved. But now, having solved the old guesswork problem, I find fractional aiming to be very effective and very easy to learn.
So what your saying is that you ignore about 99% of the useless aiming theories posted on this site! Kind of like fake news isn’t it! Good for you.
Well, anyone with good stroke and good observation skills really do not need aiming systems. They just see the shot.Lol....I sure don't waist much time on any aiming system or theory that doesn't immediately work when I first start trying it. To me, aiming systems are tools to help beginner or below average players become more consistent shot makers. Or for players that have trouble with a specific shot but do well otherwise. With all the different systems/theories available they can surely find one here that will help with that shot.
I like knowing things, learning things. So I usually try about every aiming system I see posted here, despite how rediculous and obviously faulty some of them are. If it relies on experience to get it to work, then it's no better than rote/ghostball. Anyone with a good stroke and good observation skills can quickly and easily weed out the useless theories.
I try them all because other asker players often ask for help or advice, and I like to be able to give them several options, hoping one might click for them.

I'll bet he doesn't ignore Poolology though.So what your saying is that you ignore about 99% of the useless aiming theories posted on this site! Kind of like fake news isn’t it! Good for you.

Pro-One aiming is to be used at all times. Helps everyone that uses it become more consistent shot makers. Several above average Pro's using it and more learning to use it
I'll bet he doesn't ignore Poolology though.
Poolology is W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L.............since of course he invented it, wrote a book about it, sells it here online,, and his forum buddies praise it.
:rotflmao1:
Just in case we forget what this thread is about.
He has some really good information on his channel which can be used for pool or snooker, I have watched a lot of his material.:smile:
That's because it provides a consistent approach/PSR for every shot.
I know when I tell someone, "Aim right here", then point to a spot on the rail or a spot on the ob, they usually have no trouble sending the cb straight to that spot. That's the usefulness of Poolology. But it does involve some thinking, so it's definitely not for everyone.
Tor Lowry recommends shooting certain shots some 30 times in a row to make it " automatic ".I don't know... Being able to deliver the cue straight through the cb is a different skill than being able to aim or align the cb to where it needs to be in order to the pocket the ball.
Once a player is able to deliver the cue properly it becomes easier to learn how to aim, as long as the player pays attention to where he is aiming and where the ob goes as a result. With ghostball or traditional fractions or contact points, or about any other method that requires guestimation or trial and error, it'll take few hundred or a few thousand hours of practice before he reaches a level of just knowing the shots as soon as he them.
Ever run into someone right eye dominate but lining up with the left eye, they ain't sending the cb to the proper spot.
