Aiming…I have read hundreds of threads here on Aiming…Contact points is a common problem, however, the problem most people have is determining the contact point and holding the point until they shoot. They find something that works for a little bit and then it goes. We search threads for more, find a fix, and then lose the contact point again.
One problem could be people are aiming with the wrong ball. I haven’t examined all aiming threads, so I hope I am not repeating.
The object ball only has 3 contact points to aim at. These are Full, Half and Quarter ball. You aim the cue ball at these points and fire away. This works probably 95% of the time or more. You don’t need to stand on the line, get the contact point, and walk back to the cue ball trying to remember that point. You can quickly get down on a shot and be ready and confident. Make a line to the pocket with the cue ball. This determines your contact point on the cue ball to the object ball. You take the cue-ball contact point and make it hit Full, Half or Quarter object ball for most shots. Easiest aiming system I have used. Wish it didn’t take me 3 years of practicing to figure out why some days I pot better than others.
