I can see the 3 points on the tip - center and the two edges - but have trouble with #4 & 5. Just not that good!
@ronowens50417 күн бұрын
I hadn't been on a pool table in about a year until last Thursday-golf instructor and coach. I had been using the edge of the cue for aiming - left edge for cuts shots to the left and right edge for cut shots to the right. It worked ok except when I used English. More time on the table I would imagine. It was just very frustrating!

That draw, b4 the 9. Was not so good. But good shootin!
@brjones2718 күн бұрын
I guess this would make more sense if I haven't been playing for 40 years. Now it's just getting a feel for it, and the cueball after. I don't even think I could explain how (since I learned this when I was like 8, on my own,) so good video.

Slightly misleading commentary. You don't want to aim the centre of the cueball at the contact point, you want to aim the centre of the cueball at the place where the centre of the cueball will be at the moment the cueball is striking the object ball at the contact point. For straight shots these are very similar but the thinner the cut, the more different they will be.

So easy to see the shot with the head-cam! Can't wait to try the aiming routine.

I'm not going to tell you my aiming system. 😂😂 I also started using a variation of CTE.

Firstly, good system for beginners, I would not suggest it for intermediate though. Ghost ball visualization is so prominent because the point of contact is not the point you are aiming at. The point of contact is half a ball away from the point you are aiming at. if you draw a line from the center of the cue ball to the desired contact point it would be half a ball away on any cut angle, because the cueball is round and its edge to edge contact not a direct center contact to the point, unless it's straight on.

so what happens when i need low right or left and high right or left. back hand english, right. center to edge is a bunch of half ball hits and the rest you're on your own. I'm so glad that people have found something that they feel works for them. bad perception is just bad perception, bad alignment is just that. I just wish most people understood the big picture is all i'm trying to say. I've done enough of sounding like a dick unintentionally so i'll just stop here. Appreciate you taking your time to explain this to people sir, kudos to all who offer up their time.

I always naturally aimed like this, but always used center tip always. I'm going to adjust and hopefully it pans out without too much of a hiccup. Thanks!

the larger the table & the smaller the pockets mean u MUST use shanes finer 5 point adjustments...3 is just too crude
@robertobigioni92494 ай бұрын
You have divided the tip of the pool cue into five points but you have only used three of these points. You have not explained when you use the intermediate points between the center and the outermost part.
@Strype134 ай бұрын
No, he was explaining that Shane Van Boening's system utilizes five points on the tip. He was just offering a simplified version of it for newer players. That being said, I still don't agree with using any of these "aiming systems." There are far too many variables in the game of pool for an aiming system to remain consistent, especially when you start using english and playing proper (cue ball) position. The best approach/"system" is to get familiar with the "ghost ball" and practice, practice, practice.

This is a great technique but i noticed that coming into a 9ft table with regulation pocket, I got humbled real quick using this system, Not gonna lie, on 7ft APA table this is almost god sent. Do you plan on doing a video on tighter pocket with this sytem? Im not saying it won’t work, but I stand corrected when trying the 9ft, there must be something about these table that accepting these variations of shots.

Playing on British and Irish pool tables, which have smaller pockets, makes it easy to play on American bigger pocketed tables.

assuming your opponent scratched on his break. and you have ball in hand. with all 15 balls still on the table or even if your opponent made a ball and scratched. would you not have to shoot from the kitchen? i don't mean to be critical. i really enjoy your videos. thank you

You don’t need an aiming system on those big bucket bar boxes. Just close your eyes, slam it, and as long as you’re not playing call pocket, the ball will land in a pocket …

Just found your channel and enjoying your content so far! I got excited when you said you were going to be in Vegas in August, then I realized you were talking about last August lol will you be going back again this year?
