Wait, you have the backwards. He was using ETC.
because this topic has been discussed 4 million times and not too long ago, Hal was overly aggresive in 'selling' CTE to everyone and anyone. Anyone listening at all in the pool world the last 15 years would have known that.

Geez you guys are hostile! I just posted an innocent message about a pool match I saw on ESPN thinking it might help someones game, and you guys think I work for the Russians or something. Why do you get so emotional about an aiming system?? Sorry I'm married with two kids with a real job and dont have all day to sit on a stupid message board and post thousands of posts.
Why dont you guys move out of your mom's basement and get a life!
hehe... you make CaliRed's LMFAOAI (Laughing my F*&^ing As* Off At It) Award!!!
Professional Pool Players HIDE the technique?? hehe --- That's FUNny!
not a great welcome, guys.
I think a lot of players idiosyncracies are being picked apart and misinterpreted as some kind of secret (or not so secret) technique which may or may not be a contributing factor to their awesomeness.
Where I am a little suspicious is, there are a lot of shortstop and low level pros who are very consistent and accurate potters without relying on any conscious aiming system. I just can't believe they can achieve this standard by feel and other top players can not. It's just not that hard to pot balls consistently if your alignement is accurate and you can push through in a straight line.
I don't doubt that some of these guys LEARNED using CTE or whatever aiming system you want to substitute. But I would be surprised to find out that they can't recognize a quarter or half ball hit. If they are anything like any pro player I've ever spoken to, the only thing that runs through their head is "3 ball corner pocket, I want to leave the cueball here".

CTE works, and I do not care where it came from, who was the father, it is like 20 Y/O Scotch...DARN GOOD!

Are those TROLLS that drool?

Shark75,
This subject has ignited a few posts in the past and you were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Not your fault. I would like to welcome you to the forum and hope you can get past a little ribbing by some of the others. Do a search of CTE and you will find the reason for them poking fun. Good to have you here!:welcome:
oke:Best,
Mike
Two of the funniest thoughts ever posted on AZB...
1) Efren flew to the US decades ago to meet some mysterious master of aiming. Considering Efren's economic background....L-O-L. Who was this master? Oh....you wouldn't know him...L-O-L
2) You notice a subtle CTE pivot in Jimmy Moore's stroke, but fail to notice the most glaring slip stroke EVAR...L-O-L
Thanks for the giggles...this CTE stuff is an endless laugh parade.

Had the distinct pleasure of watching Jimmy Moore in action at Albq. in the past. He was up in years and still a monster, if you weren't on the business end of his cue he was a friendly monster. He told me one time that he didn't need to aim anymore as it was memorex that took over, align-stroke-fire. A great champion, welcome to the forum, the beatings will continue until morale improves.
Shark75 needs to try CTE, no it is not easy for some people to get a grip on fast, but when you connect the DOTS! It is like anything else. You know the SECRET,(<<<<-----Video LINK) and it will work for you.
I have an idea for a CTE Training Device, that I will be talking to JB Cases about putting together in a couple of DAYS. John as many know is the Product Developement Manager for Sterling Gaming, and if john like the idea, I sure it would be a hot Item for Pool Player to make learning CTE, as easy as 1,2, 3.:wink:

I hear that in 1908 Johnny Kling, catcher for the Chicago Cubs, leaned over the box seats to catch a foul ball and met young Hal Houle. The next year Kling took off from baseball and won the World Pocket Billiard Championship. A mere coincidence you say? Perhaps not ....

In all fairness that is the best and most accentuated slip stroke I've ever seen. I'm actually a little jealous, I won't lie. Sometimes when things are perfected it's hard to recognize it.
Any video's of Jimmy Moore around.
