I put more weight into watching Ronnie in competition. I have done that recently. He looks at the object ball last. I can't say that's true for all shots or all types of shots but on the shots that required careful aim -- and the camera showed his eye pattern -- he was looking at the object ball last.
I shoot CBL. It's what I'm developing. I don't look to the Hendrys or RO's well- maybe the Gorsts; for affirmation but inasmuch as CBL works and works over distance and proves its validity shot after shot, I need to ask if you're willing to do an analysis of the differences referenced to all shot types.
OMG
l assume the flat earth society has members with intelligence but a lack of filters for ridiculous evidence. Which can then lead to flawed conclusions.
OMG
I had overestimated your integrity. Or perhaps intelligence would be more accurate.
The 6 pictures you provide definitely show their eyes. Wow! Hard to imagine how you could....wait wait, OK had to check again and you do say prove and not evidence. Well your evidence is flawed in so many ways it's absurd.
Glad my earth is a ball and not a flap jack.
Most players have heard of, no wait, most "top" players" have heard of Poverty Flats. I rest my case. :tongueout: 
Oh you are killing me here.
Oh Shit! Are you serious?
That's nought funny.
Does it really matter that much?
The orthodox teaching is that this is very, very bad technique. Or at least lazy and also harmful on long shots.
Exactly. What's most important for the player is to know what it feels like to do it successfully, whatever it is they're trying to accomplish on a shot. So their frame of reference may feel like they're decelerating. I know mine is that way with kill shots. It feels like I'm decelerating, although it may very well be closer to constant. Another important feel is the feel of a slow backstroke. To many amateurs who have difficulty taking their cue back slowly, I've often had to tell them to take the cue back "excruciatingly slow." In video replay after doing that, they're surprised to see it's not as slow as it felt.
What is your opinion on the focus being on the peripheral vision image of the cue? So basically, look at OB (as a whole), but pay attention to the peripheral vision of your cue going in a straight line. A bit unorthodox for sure, but by how much, I don't know. I do this because I don't know where the point I'm hitting is, the OB/CB overlap is all I perceive to be correct and then just stroke straight forward.
