I was just wondering if there were any guys that use cte or have bought the dvd here? Theres to much bs in the main forum.
 
Because we live further north, CTE doesn't work here.

Something to do with being closer to the north pole, knowing santa doesn't live there and losing faith in fairytales.

CTE is an aiming system Seether, it stands for Centre to Edge. It involves waiving your cue around like a magic wand until it supposedly lines up with some sort of magic lay line on the table and gives you a starting point to aim.

It's like using a magic ball as a GPS in your car.

Yes, this is true! :)
 
thank god no

most likely no(thank god), due to the long influence snooker has had in Canada's pool history. ghost ball, fraction aiming is probably the most predominant form of aiming system. if it works on a 12 foot table with small pockets, there probably isn't much of a need to change anything:thumbup:

I avoid getting into those aiming threads myself but I gotta say I just don't get it.
I rarely have and issue with not aiming correctly, I miss because I did not cue properly or took my eye off or jumped up or moved or whatever but almost never because I could not see the angle or point of contact. And your are absolutely correct, it works on the 12ft so it must be right.
 
I tried it only to see what all the hoopla was about, but couldn't make a ball. As best as I can gather it seems to get a player roughly onto the line of aim, so it's interesting in so far as it seems to be an alignment system.

But aiming really isn't that hard. I tend to think all of this stuff complicates the process. I couldn't imagine running 100 balls or a century whilst visualizing all these lines and going through this complicated aiming process or whatever you're supposed to do.
 
I use cte/Pro-one or 90/90 on almost every shot. I have Stan`s dvd and practiced all the shots for an hour daily during a 3 weeks period to get used to the system. It works pretty well for me.
 
I look where to hit the ball to make it, then hit that spot with cue ball. Been working for 21 years of playing so far! Yes it also works on a 6X12 with tight pockets.... maybe I'll make a DVD!

I aimed the way you described for over 20 years too ! Nothing wrong with the way you aim , I just find it easier to use cte for reverse cut and banking in particular.:thumbup: Put me on your list for your DVD :D
