You can watch her in matches on youtube....she looks like a ghostball user or contact point user, the way she looks at a shot from ob first. And in the Allison Fisher interview Gerda says she just sees the line the cb needs to travel and then aligns to that.
You guys can believe whatever you wanna believe. But the most likely reason she won that tournament is simply because her mind was right, not because she abandoned her championship method of aiming the balls, the same method that won her a straight pool tournament just 3 months earlier, which does involve aiming. And that's not saying Stan didn't help her in some other aspect of her game.
Nope, you're not a 'good learner' and you WILL do it again. You have very little willpower to resist the compulsion.Yeah, that's why it's pointless to argue. My mistake is thinking that there could actually some civil back and forth, as long as it didn't involve the actual steps or working of CTE. That's why I don't challenge or question or share my thoughts and experience with the system anymore. Apparently I should also not question or challenge silly implications or insinuations about champion players when it comes to the use of CTE.
Lesson learned. I'm a good learner. Eventually, after enough lessons, I'll know exactly what or who I am permitted to question or challenge without causing a bunch of unnecessary drama.<====you cannot resist doing it
Daves got a agenda...cte pusher. Whats sad for him...not to many addicts here...lol.
i picked up stans system fairly easily off the first cd ... after years of using the system i can just see the shot and the lane i need to be in without much thought, i still miss shots ... i think a pro player will take part(s) of pro1 and apply it to there own way of aiming,etc ... my point is you cant tell much from a youtube video and just because she doesznt mention stan doesnt mean anything either
All good points. What you describe is exactly like fractional aiming or ghostball or anything else....after a while you just recognizing the shots, know where to align, and know how to shoot them.
im not sure about the comparison or point you are trying to make, how is it exactly like ghostball or fractional aiming, explain
do you mean the end result?
Yes, the end result, the intuitive feeling that your body and stroke are aligned properly in accordance with what your eyes are seeing, because you've seen and done it so often that it is more of a subconscious process now, though orchestrated by conscious visual inputs.
well with pro1 you always have the alignments and the system engraved in your mind and are aware of it from shot to shot and it's easy to slide back into the systems basics if you're struggling,etc if need be ... with those other techniques you brought up, if you're struggling for whatever reason you're in trouble, imo
And yes there are lots aiming methods out there that will help ...
According to CTE users here, if you haven't mastered "those other techniques" you can't have a valid opinion about them.... with those other techniques you brought up, if you're struggling for whatever reason you're in trouble, imo
... Only a couple of kids of pro golfers ever made it into the pros but never as good as their pappy.
And that's the name of that tune...play it on your guitar, play it on your piano, on your drums, write it in your next edition of Poolology or just put it in your pipe and smoke it.. It will happen.

I have no experience with it (and no interest in getting any), but from what I've heard:...what's your opinion on the cte pro1 system PJ?
And you will keep doing it on and on and on, long after Dan White finds a way to get me thrown out of here.

I have no experience with it (and no interest in getting any), but from what I've heard:
It's clearly workable (its users say so) but also over-complicated and fantastically advertised (maybe good qualities for its users).
