I think you will be impressed. It helps both, but I also think if you are a seasoned player this is a great tool to get you to your stroke fast before play. Just by using it for a few minutes before you play or practice, you immediatly self-adjust yourself to fit into your stroke. Nothing worse than not being able to figure out what is wrong. Who cares what people think, just throw it on your cue when you first start hitting balls.

It is a great tool for stroke training!! Aids in insuring direct center ball hit!!
You can't go wrong for the price either. Another fine product from Joe Tucker

I'll be picking one up in the future.
LastTwo,
Did you check out http://www.joetucker.net
Joe had some nice videos of the stroke trainer in action. Not sure if they are still up or not. He's got me sold on giving it a try.

At $14.95 if it work it is a Steal.... 
i got one a couple weeks ago. I think its a fine idea, and the price is right. I mostly bought it after watching tuckers video explaining how dead center on the ball and what you perceive as dead center on the ball might look different. But when i shot with it on my stick, it appears i was seeing everything as it should be, so really it just gave me peice of mind.

It's only $14.95 plus shipping. What are you waiting for you cheapskate? I ordered one myself. I'll be d*amned if I will tell you how it worked thoughsince you are such a know-it-all.
I already ordered one, I'm just looking at results other people have had with it, you psychotic oompa loompa

You have some legitimate complaints there so let me tell you what you can do about it.whitewolf said:Well, in that case numbnuts, just be careful when you put the thing together. Mine broke into and I had to rig it back together. Didn't have a chance to listen to the CD as my drive just broke.
It didn't do squat for me, or at least every time the sides of the device never touched my cue ball. My stroke was already straight, as another poster said.
One other thing, it didn't fit my 12.5mm shaft. Just slid right off. It barely fit onto my 12.75 shaft, but slid forward due to my powerful sroke
I think one would be better off buying something with quality, such as the 'batman' bridge, and rigging two pieces coming out and forward.

First off when you do get a chance to watch the DVD you’ll see that I offer free replacements to anyone that breaks theirs. That material was very brittle and is why I have now switched to a better plastic material which is much softer and more flexible. The 3rd Eye Stroke Trainer will now fit onto ferrules of 11mm-14mm without a problem and anybody that has already purchased one and would like to exchange or replace theirs can do so by sending me the old one; Joe Tucker, PO Box 7252, Warwick RI 02886
As for the not doing squat issue;
I think if you do watch the video not only will you gain some knowledge, find a use for the 3rd Eye in your own game but you’ll most likely be able to help some other players out also, if you’re the sharing kind.
Sorry for your bad experience, it’s not the first one that broke but you are definitely the first to talk so negatively about it.
Good luck rigging up the Bat Bridge.

Joe explains very thoroughly in his video what to do if you use a thin shaft. I doubt your stroke is already straight. How can an oompa loompa have a straight stroke?
