English, I have conceded before, and I'll do it again. By the definition of the word 'Objective' I agree there is no such aiming system. I will however call it an accurate and repeatable system for aiming, straight in shots; cut shots and bank shots.
You seem to take personal umbrage with the use of the term Objective as Stan uses to advertise his system. He certainly isn't the first to use this type of language to market a product. I can't think of any product I have ever seen advertised as "This seems to work pretty well, give me $20 and I'll give it to you." I personally don't take issue with it, but then again I'm not prone to pull out my credit card from watching late-night infomercials. Personal unsolicited reviews and testimony are what I personally strive to utilize to make informative decisions, unless I already know a certain product can actually provide me some specific use. I doubt I'm the only pool player who shops this way.
I am glad you realize that & have the GUTS to make that statement since you are a user of the system. Now if others would follow suit.
You make some seemingly good points, but...
can you show me ANY other aiming method that has been marketed as being 'an objective AIMING system'?
That word, objective, has implications in the context of that phrase as opposed to other types of products.
Other products like scratch removal for cars are certainly marketed as 'objective' in that they WILL work for every scratch, yet get one too wide & it will not work.
The wrongs of others does not make right the wrong of another.
You almost seem here to be accusing Stan of intentional false marketing or perhaps suggesting that I am.
I & some others have NEVER done that.
As to how YOU shop, that is YOU. Everyone is not like you. Some will hear that description & be enticed simply by it alone. I was intrigued when I first heard it.
THAT is the issue. Something should NOT be inaccurately described.
Also, please keep in mind that the outlay of money is not even an issue when compared to the expenditure of TIME.
One should NOT be enticed to spend their TIME by an inaccurate description.
But, again, I am glad that you realize that it is NOT 'an objective aiming system' & had the GUTS to say so as you are a user of the method.
NOW, I only hope that 'they' will not 'assault' you with loads of vitriol of the kind that has been launched at me & others.
I suspect that 'they' will first try to convince you to change your mind & if you do not, then 'they' will try to run you off so as to silence you from ever saying such again.
But... that might not happen as you are a user of the method & could be considered a supporter of it even if not fully.
Best Wishes 2 You & Yours,
