Hi to all guys. I have some doubts about to get your visuals in the best way. Sometimes when I am stand behind the cue ball (with a little ofset) and trying to see the ctel and the edge to a,b or c I often see some kind of two cue ball (when i look forward to the object ball) and gets difficult for me to establish my visuals, hope someone can help me. And sorry for my English.
Confused about visuals

Start at finding CCB to COB. Now start moving slightly until you get your first clear visual of CTE. Check to see if you also have ETA or C. If it is a B, keep moving to the next clear CTE. Check to see if you got ETB.
This gets easier and easier in my own experience. Obviously, it's real easy 99% of the time for Stan, Stevie, Landon, Gerry and mohrt as can be seen by watching the videos. I still get sme I just can't pick up for whatever the reason. In some cases, I've just stepped completely away and come back changing body position and perhaps, distance from the CB. After the last lesson from Stan, I learned to also try to find 1/4, 1/2 or 3/4 overlap as the starting point and then fine tune from there. One other thing I found was I previously was too closed in my alignment. I'm speculating this was causing some conflict with dominant and non dominant eye. Opening up my alignment when acquiring my visual seems to allow me to see it better. Thin cuts to the right are a challenge to me in particular and Stan helped me figure out it was the eye conflict that was screwing me up on thin cuts period. Practice has helped that but I have to focus more on these to get it right.
If you didn't get it with the DVD, download the proposition shot diagram mohrt put together and is on his website. His website is chock full of helpful information, he's done an incredible job with it.

No different for me. I think this is the easiest visual to see because both lines are so objective. If you feel too offset, try moving your body some so it doesn't and take some shots.
Yes you are right, for me is easy to see the aim point b in closer shots, and right swep it´s hard to make it, but as Gerry says it is about practice, thanks again Nob.
