Well you said you haven’t been out of the house to play any serious pool in about 12 years.I'm not so sure the people buying (into) the book are really pool players.
And several of the regular posters have won state championships

You are the only one butt hurt.Stan wasn't driven away. Stan was banned by AZ management and he didn't like that. He came back and did a poll as to whether he should stay. He didn't get the answer he wanted, got butt hurt (as cookie so eloquently puts it) and left.
Several players out of 3200. How many are beginners?Well you said you haven’t been out of the house to play any serious pool in about 12 years.

I’m sure this post made his day. He might as well go back to bed. What can top praise from Dan whiteYou're beginning to grow on me, tony!
Lots of beginning CTE users learning from one of the best resources available for pool playersSeveral players out of 3200. How many are beginners?
The answer is simple. If my opinion is wrong then just prove it wrong instead of simply saying for a million times "you don't know anything."You are the only one butt hurt.
And yes Stan doesn’t post here because of people like you that continually badger people with your wrong opinions.
Stan and just about all the good instructors as well as most if not all pro players have been driven off of AZ by the trolls that post here.
I have to admit, the stuff between the first and last letters does look a lot like CTE's "instructions" (for this week).The answer is simple. If my opinion is wrong then just prove it wrong instead of simply saying for a million times "you don't know anything."
Here's an opportunity for you. Someone just posted the following picture in the funny pic thread and I thought it was a good illustration of CTE.

The first letter in each word is like your initial set up for CTE. It is something consistent and repeatable. The last letter is like looking at the pocket where you want the ball to go. If you have a consistent PSR and a target your brain will figure out the rest. It's not the geometry of the table that makes it work, it is the nature of the human mind that figures it out.
Prove me wrong.
So you want me to prove that your opinion of the human mind just figures it out lol. If the human mind just figures everything out then why are contact points a thing. Why are banking systems a thing. Why is the diamond system a thing. If the mind just figures it out then why do we need to rely on anything else.The answer is simple. If my opinion is wrong then just prove it wrong instead of simply saying for a million times "you don't know anything."

They’ve always looked like that to you. That doesn’t say anything about CTE though.I have to admit, the stuff between the first and last letters does look a lot like CTE's "instructions" (for this week).

You are missing the point. Your counter argument is to show how CTE is an objective system that puts the shooter on the shot line without any aiming experience needed, like the way Poolology does. That method is clearly explained in detail and makes sense. Nobody has been able to do that in 20 years, which should tell you something.So you want me to prove that your opinion of the human mind just figures it out lol.

CTE is fully explained in complete detail. And there are plenty of diagrams on CTE in the book.You are missing the point.

Banking systems work. They are geometrically correct and that also goes for other crutches that help speed the learning process. CTE people always say CTE cannot be diagrammed. That is because it does not make geometric sense in 2 or it seems even 3 dimensions. So we are on to "perception." It is not good enough just to say "perception." You have to show how it works. In the absence of such proof, the logical explanation is that the brain makes it work.
But CTE will never be explained in complete detail on here. You and others made sure of that. Consider yourself famous.CTE is fully explained in complete detail. And there are plenty of diagrams on CTE in the book.

Have you noticed how many APA 3s have CF shafts? Pool players will spend money on anything they think will give them an edge, even if in reality they are just chasing a magic pill. Old school players are notoriously cheap bastards (me included) but the new generation thinks nothing of spending $100 on pool. Hell, the phone in their pocket is $1200+.
OK, sure. Whatever you say.CTE is fully explained in complete detail. And there are plenty of diagrams on CTE in the book.
because you're an expert on what people spend on pool?Broadly speaking, pool players are not into buying books at $100 a whack (plus shipping and handling).

well the 15th came and went and you didn't step up. so still on the porch yapping is where you are.tsk, tsk, always compensating.

jb is already famous. I was already famous in the world long before most of you ever heard of Hal.That would be JB, cookie, and JB.
because those without a ged are dumb in your opinion or unable to read? unable to follow directions?Yes, but I don't think you can equate the two.
It's easy to pay for a CF shaft because many (most) amateurs believe it's going to immediately lead to greater accuracy, more/easier draw, better position play, and cure their baldness. A book is a completely different kettle of fish because it means reading, comprehending, and implementing. IOWs, it's work and I don't think the majority of pool players want to invest their dough thataway when they can get a supposed quick fix from CF.
It's also important to note the book in question has the density of a college-level text book, to the point of being virtually indecipherable through some extended passages. Someone with a GED or less is not going to find it particularly understandable or useful.

no, you're not.
