GaryB,
I didn't buy or have the DVD but read this that one is to pivot left and right for left cuts depending on the desired angle. I am prolly wrong.
Cte/pro one left cuts - 11-06-2012, 06:50 AM

A PROGRESSION OF LEFT CUTS FOR CTE/PRO ONE
The following GUIDE for left cuts can be reversed for right cuts.
1. THICK CUT SHOTS
A/CTE -OUTSIDE PIVOT
(A/CTE- INSIDE PIVOT)
(B/CTE-OUTSIDE PIVOT)
**A/CTE with an inside pivot is the same as B/CTE with an outside pivot. This is a primary reason that you experience very few Bs with an outside pivot. This interchange for A and B on the THICK side can work up to about 50 inches on a 9 foot table. This information is great for flexibility/options for the right handed/left handed players.
Please note: There are NO B shots after 4 diamonds of distance on a 9 foot table. Distance at 4 plus diamonds does not allow for a B aim point line with a CTE perception. There are NO B shots without a CTE perception.
2. TYPICAL CUT SHOTS
B/CTE-INSIDE PIVOT
3. THIN CUT SHOTS
C/WITHOUT THE CTE PERCEPTION- OUTSIDE PIVOT
C/WITHOUT THE CTE PERCEPTION-INSIDE PIVOT
These are single line visuals.
**The addition of C for left thin cuts and A for right thin cuts as OB aim points are my only update since my DVD was released. In a previous thread I indicated an Edge to Edge update for near straight-in shots but that was not a correct adjustment for CTE/PRO ONE. So, disregard my E to E earlier update as it was wrong. My first DVD is correct and complete with the additions of A and C single lines visuals for thin cuts.
4. EXTREMELY THIN CUTS
1/8 CB/OB OVERLAP- OUTSIDE PIVOT
1/8 CB/0B OVERLAP-INSIDE PIVOT
***I use the word pivot, now, only to describe manual pivoting. Technically, in PRO ONE, there is no pivot, just a left or right eye/body movement that eliminates the need for manual pivoting. I refer to what was once a pivot in PRO ONE now as a LEFT OR RIGHT VISUAL SWEEP.
CTE/PRO ONE is a visual system in which the eyes lead and the body follows.
Can all shots be made with a CTE perception? Yes, All shots go somewhere with the use of 2 visuals: A/CTE and B/CTE for left cuts. For right cuts: C/CTE and B/CTE. CTE shots may not always go to your desired pocket. So, there are adjustments. That’s what the A and C single line aim points on the thin side and the 1/8 single line visuals are for.
I do not associate OB aimpoints with specific angles because of the distance factor and the way those little spheres can present themselves on a rectangular surface. One example of this is that I can demonstrate an A shot on the thin side with a 20 degree angle and also an A shot on the thin side with a 49 degree angle.
