Do you use an aiming system or go by feel?

[ENGLISH!]

Ok. Hope it shuts you up finally about this subject. But more than likely they won't want to be "on record" in this crap argument. Never seen so many knockers in my life whose main goal is to stop people from trying to get better.

John,

Did you ever think that painting with such a wide brush causes some 'attitude' where perhaps such did not exist prior or had died down only to be stirred up by you OR... is this just one of those subconscious out of control hot button pushings.

I & I doubt that PJ, Satorie, Lou or anyone here on AZB would do anything to keep another from getting better.

Best Wishes.

As someone on here says as a sig line........."That's just about stronger than cat piss right there". :thumbup2:
Any of those who constantly berate the CTE method should check this video and maybe grasp some of the concept.

I, as many others here, are completely and totally about people getting better and I have written many, many things in this vein.

OTOH, I, and many others here, also don't want people to get worse. To waste precious practice time by going down a rabbit hole to no good end. And there are those of us here that believe that some systems, put out with the best of intentions, could conceivably cripple a player's game for life if they were to some how take the bait, hook, line, and sinker.

Because folks disagree does not make them knockers or haters or wish ill on other players. To the contrary.

Good Post, Lou.

Ok, let us know , either way.
I trust, you are after the truth.

Now they don't want players mentioned if you don't know them? Seriously.. where was that logic when they insinuated so many pros play with cte. Good grief.

Can you please REPOST those gems that you've written about to get better?
Do you mean like developing a good PSR? Something you never go into detail about? What else have you posted POSITIVELY?

No Lou, you're a knocker plain and simple. You've been the twin brother of PJ from 1998 on RSB through now to discredit and demean CTE, Hal Houle, Stan Shuffet, or anybody who acknowledges using CTE and having success.

Hal jerked both you and PJ around on the forum and personal phone calls because he thought you two were screwballs and haters at that early stage and sent you two down the yellow brick world to nowhere. Both of you want to get back any way you can.

But it didn't end with Hal, nope not for you. You've attacked, demeaned, and done everything in your power to hammer other instructors and pro players.

You tried belittling Freddy the Beard when he was alive and then dead regarding his banking systems...you did the same with Gene Albrecht for perfect aim...you've done it for years when Hal was alive...you did it with John Schmidt who wanted to knock your lights out in a parking lot...you've badmouthed Stevie Moore...you did it here with Stan Shuffett which was probably the WORST and WHY you got banned...and you continue to do it with JB or ANYONE who should dare use CTE and produce good results and then report it just like you've done for 17 years.

Stan posted this to someone else and here it is to you...please post ONE VIDEO showing ANY SHOT ON THE TABLE where CTE doesn't work! If you know so much about it, this should be a piece of cake for somebody like yourself who cares so much about the progress or lack of progress of other pool players.

Too bad they can't ALL be as good as you to just "see the shot" and fire 95% + of their shots into the pocket. But then again, you aren't even close to that number and never have been which is why you're an amateur trying to be somebody on pool forums.

Practice.................thats what works and that is the only thing that works.

Ask any pro if they would be where they are without practice.

Ask any pro if they need to practice to remain sharp.

Those that continue to imply that it is the system are doing more harm than good to up and coming players. These players need to know it is hard work, it is practice that makes improvements and not any system.

The only thing that matters is practice.

And I don't care what systems is used.....it all comes down to practice.

Just because you may find xxx not to your style of play, does not mean that xxx does not fit someone else style of play. In all honestly, it is really hard to say one one is better than another because that choice is all based on personal preferences.

But no matter what the choice...its all about practice and how well you do that.

As proof by the match between John and Lou. John practiced wrong or else he would have played better. It has nothing to do with the system used.

Lou practice well as evidence of his play.

Since you're in a handicapped league and you're the one receiving the handicap in all matches against many other better players...where has hitting a million balls, the arrow, and practice gotten you?

Well, I don't know about all the other names getting tossed around.

But I DO know Corey.

And i've known him longer then anyone else that posts on this forum, since he first walked into the pool room way back in the day.

And if there is one thing I know (because I asked him) he does NOT use CTE.

That is straight from the horses mouth.

Any conspiracy theories like the one Stan posted in the other thread, inferring about Corey using CTE and not knowing it are just total garbage.
For those of you who didn't see it.

I had a student from Ohio years back and before he came to KY he explained to CORey about what he knew about the course he was about to take.....CTE.....Corey responded Oh yeah, I do that, I call it a visual sweep. My VISUAL SWEEP terminology came from Corey.

If Corey plays with his cue across his vision he uses CTE whether he realizes it or not. I won't go into the implications here but I will in due time. I would explain it right now but I simply do not want to deal with the knockers.

And Yes yes yes I invited Corey to Ky to take a look at CTE....and he said he already had a system for aiming.

Stan Shuffett

So your information is from a student who talked to Corey and then relayed it to you? Not from Corey himself? Is that what you are saying?

Cause I asked him almost 3 hours ago directly if he uses CTE.
He said no.

And again, since this need to be reiterated.
This is NOT a criticism of CTE or anything you teach.

If is a criticism of adding people to a list of "secret CTE users/players who don't know they are using CTE" as some form of endorsement, when they themselves have never come out publicly and said they actually use it.

That is what my comments are about.

The student was a good friend of Corey's and he had no reason to lie in any way.

Once again, Corey could be subconsciously using CTE ...without knowledge of whatt really is occurring. BUT because of the knockers that stifle what I do, my info on that will not be spelled out here at this time.....No matter what I say or do here, right or wrong...hate is coming my way.

Stan - I'm glad you are posting to this thread. I wonder if you would be so kind as to look at my post on an earlier page, here:

http://forums.azbilliards.com/showpost.php?p=5316560&postcount=824

I had a phone session for an evening with Hal years back and was really interested in what he was teaching. However, I just couldn't understand it really. Your perception videos are very well presented, except for the part about seeing the visuals when you go from the first shot to the second and third. Hopefully my other post is self-explanatory and you will get the idea of why I'm confused. Can you help me understand that one point better?

Regards,

Or he could not use it at all and any player that shoots worth a darn with cte could just as easily be subconsciously adjusting for any problems. But, hey, it's only ok to say that sort of thing if im a cte fanatic.

Stan Shuffett

So that is a NO.
You didn't get the info from Corey directly.
OK. That's all I need to know.

And you aren't getting any hate from me.
I'm just saying you really shouldn't assume things about other players, as I touched on in the other thread.
Even if you think you know what they are doing and why.
Until you actually work with them and they actually endorse your product, you should just refrain from using them publicly.

That being said, I never assume.
I go right to the source.

No one has ever stated that adjustments do not occur in CTE. What is true is that adjustments are based on known shots.

For example, if I know a 15 inside, then a little side spin can easily be based on center ball for that 15 I shot.

If Corey is unknowingly using cte then what he is doing will not work unless he is playing on a 2x1 surface!:yes:
