OMG! This is the most useful aiming system that I’ve ever seen! I tried many aiming systems and this one is the best ever! Highly recommended!

I use the same aiming system. One thing that most people overlook is the cue stroke. My misses tend to occur when I try to stroke harder than my normal stroke. Which cause inaccuracy. Keeping the same stroke speed and tempo is very important.

This has improved my shot making ability especially on the Diamond 9 footer. Thank you for explaining it so well

I love you for showing this method. I have been learning shaft aiming and you just gave me a big piece of the puzzle man. Seriously mind blown that you can do this also with english! You are awesome. If you have any other advice on this aiming style i would love to hear it. You are the best!

Amazing video, thank you very much. I just started playing pool semi-regularly, and videos like these help me immensely!

The Best Explanation of this system that I've seen demonstrated. Much easier to understand after watching this video

This is amazing! no excess words or details just straight to the point ! 🙌🏻💪🏻

Wow, finally the video I've been waiting for.. Thanks for re-uploading this concept.. Your 1st video of this before mentioned 50 degrees limitation. This works well for half table distance shots. For long shots, you need to figure out the adjustment because we all see things differently with distance..

JAY-ZUS… thank you! 🙌🏽 I’ve been waiting on a way to visualize my contact point and cue alignment better. Can’t wait to try this out!

SVB uses this type of aiming. I heard him telling someone in an interview one time and the interviewer didn’t understand what he was saying. I incorporated it after hearing him. I noticed that I had been doing it naturally with some of the shots I was more consistent on for years but didn’t realize I was doing it.

This is great stuff. Thank you for your generosity in sharing 👍

Great video! This video has been way more helpful than any other aiming video I have researched.

Great video! Straight to the point ❤ my shooting did a full 180

I tried this today and it worked surprisingly well. Thanks for the tip!

Great view with the cam!!!!! Love it ❤

I’ve used this system for some time, it’s great, I never knew about inside English switching side of shaft - terrific! Gotta try this option

Great video thanks! I'd heard of this aiming system before but had never seen a clear explanation. I hear ya about rattling that shot @5:52 so many times

Great! I've never seen this and I'm gonna practice this technique. Most of my missed shots are cut shots. I also found out that if I shoot the ball SLOW for a cut shot, it will almost ALWAYS miss because the cue is not hitting and then clearing the object ball. Rather, it hits and drags on the object ball, effecting the LINE it SHOULD go in on. Thanks for the tip!

Wow! Can't wait to try it out

Great advice. Shane Van Boening uses this system. It works

I used the shaft aiming system just recently and it works

I had the pleasure of learning this from "Ginky" RIP was an awesome tool to dial in on the shots. Nice video!

thank you, your presentation is simple and effective

Damn it’s so much clearer now thank you very much!!!

Thank you for this good video. I like the use of the pool stick camera in conjunction with the other camera as well. 5 full stars from me.

Nice thanks Im gonna try it out tom.👍🙏

Amazing. I can't wait to try

Nice to have someone who not only says what they know, but what they don't. Keep up the good work.

Really nice perspectives in this video. Good topics; nice video techniques.

I love this because I never know how to explain this system but I use it all the time. Now if somebody asks how I aim I’ll just show em this video.

I have been doing this since 1973 and I use it on all shots not just cut shots. I use the tip aiming to the arc opposite to the pocket arc instead of the shaft as it is more accurate. By either using the left side of the tip or the center or the right side of the tip on the arc I can pot the ball thick or thin creating multiple angles on the shot. As far as english goes when i use back hand english or the pivot method I still use the same aiming system.

This was like the missing link that I was missing! When I am on, this is the way I am shooting but didnt know it. Once you pointed it out using the right or left of the shaft, I realized that was what I was trying to figure out with my stance and angle of address, trying to figure out why sometimes everything just goes in and the next day nothing goes in. Now I see it and I make the shot much more consistently. Thank you for the great videos!

Same. The really crazy part is just this past week I've been noticing some relationship between aiming towards the edge of the cue ball and making shots. But I couldn't figure out exactly what was happening. Now a whole week later if getting good but not consistent results I now see what the trick is. I'll be going out to shoot later tonight.

KZread algo served me up your videos starting last week, I can't get enough of it, great work!! I can see how this helps because it would force me to pick a very precise shot line using the left or right edge of the cue rather than making an estimate from the whole width of my cue. Question: Does this aiming system implicitly add in a touch of english since you are using either the left or right side of your cue to aim? For example, @2:44 your left side of your cue tip is aligned to the ideal ghost ball position, but as we look closer towards your body the line drifts off the left edge, more towards the center.

I'll try it. Thanks.

I find that this system works exceptionally well for when you're using inside English. Last night I an 8 ball where all it was a cut to the corner that would have lead to a scratch cross side. All I was thinking during my approach was maximum right spin. Found my aiming point. Put the left side of my OB-2+ shaft right on the line. Made sure my line went straight through to the rail. 8 ball went right down the middle and cue ball had came straight back in front of me. This is an awesome aiming method for all shots but the most benefit comes with inside English because those shots are exceptionally difficult to make.

Wow I can’t wait to try it

Nicely done on the vid, informative.

I have a Cuetec r360 and this works perfectly for me. I have been pleasantly surprised how well it works on long shots and rail shots. I don’t know about other shafts but it is awesome for me.

ALL I CAN SAY IS... THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I have a problem trying to determine where i need to put my attention while shooting, I know pretty much that i need to keep my eye on the target, but you can only do that when you have a solid aiming system that helps you trust yourself that you are following the correct line. Because when you don't trust that you are making the correct line, the eyes have the tendency to make a lot of movement. And it causes a lot of problems.

Thanks I’ll try it

Thank you .does distance between white ball and object ball matters ?or the size of your tip matter?

Nice video, thank you. Question: Where does the red line one your shaft begin?

Wow, very useful tips!

Question: Is the contact point the space where the ghost ball and the object ball meet or is it the middle of the ghost ball? Thanks for the great vids!

Great vid!

I’ve used this system about 6 years ago. I think it’s a great starting point for beginners that are just flailing at aiming. For me, I found that the range of angles it works for are actually more narrow than you think. As you get to the edge cases of when it works you don’t realize you’re cheating the pocket. And then you start getting some trouble on longer shots or tight pockets or shots that require you to intentionally cheat the pocket in specific ways. The solution to that for me was when I stumbled on the SVB shaft aiming video where he covers a broader array of angles by using different parts of the shaft (left edge, center, right edge) aligned to different parts of the object ball (middle, contact point, edge of the ball, just outside the ball). But it was hard to tell which alignments worked with which angles until I took time to inventory them (straight in, 10 degree cut, 15 degree, 30 degree, 45 degree, 60, 80, 90). And then I realized that there were always problematic in-between angles and I was back to cheating the pocket unintentionally and having problems in tougher conditions (longer shots, tighter pockets, needing to cheat the pocket intentionally). These days I’ve had to walk away from shaft-based aiming systems and just rely on contact point-to-contact point aiming because it’s more precise for me. It’s like a mix of the Mosconi parallel lines system and the equal overlap system. YMMV

@alanvo4037

Жыл бұрын

Completely agree. If you follow a system exclusively, some balls you make will be no where near the ghost ball but you still make the ball as pockets are big. (cheat pocket). If there is a system for snooker players, I'll be way more interested.

Mosconi parallel aiming is the best on paper, and equal overlap is a great way to visualize where the contact points are, these are the real challenges to become a good pool player. over coming the physics of ball deflation stick deflation squirt swerve and nap is all in there also. what a great game.

I really enjoy your videos. I have been playing pool for 40 years. I'm rateda B+ player-although inconsistent. You mentioned in one of your videos that you were Left Eye Dominant. I too am Left Eye dominant.I only discovered this recently. could you make a video video discussing how you cope with this. thanks

YOU”RE THE MAN!!!

Awesome system.. I recently tried it and ran multiple 8 ball racks on a bar table…. Next real test will be on a 9 ft diamond

Thanks for this video. This has been a game changer for me. My initial aiming system was the ghost ball, but then i lost my consistency with this somehow over time, so i was looking for a different system. I then stumbled upon SVBs aiming system, and found some success with it, but just needed to practice it some more. I then stumbled upon this video, and bam! I was potting shots very consistently, without having to think about the shot to much after establishing the contact point in the object ball. Question about cut angles greater than 80 degrees. What system so you use for these types of shots? CTE? 90 to 90? Something else? Thanks in advance!

Edge of the inside shaft directly to the contact point, gotta shoot straight. Okay, gonna try that today.

Great video! Very interesting & surprised it worked with English too. I’m going to go give it a test (if I can still see that good). Lol. We didn’t have this technology back in the day. I was a big player later 80’s to mid ‘90’s we had to learn after endless hours or practice & pressure games and make it just natural instinct. Wish we had this tech back then. Ha. Does it make a difference if your right or left eye dominant? Cheers

I have played billiard for a long time but my problem is I always miss the easy shot and do well with the harder one. So embarrassing with my homies 😅. Love the video

pretty cool video!! Cheers

Sick system instant level up

when shooting far do you imagine the same size up close of the cue stick?

How are you lining up the cue ball to the object ball? Are you using center-to-center or center-to-edge?

I tried panthom ball aiming it worked and now let me try this one since panthom ball doesn't have actual measure

Amazing ❤🎉

Try using headcam as well , the best way to show method 👍😎😎 Still enjoyed video thx

Any small possibility this system could work with snooker?I'm going to give it a try but i know that balls and shaft/cue are of a different size.

any ideas on how to consistently compensate/adjust for an 11.8 mm ferrule? I just got a new cue and nothing works anymore.

Great system dude. I cant imagine what u gotta do to do english on the shots.

I’m glad it’s easy for somebody

Any hints on keeping the Ct Pt in site on distance shots with the Ct Pt on the solid color of the object ball?

Very easy system to learn...worked on most of my shots. On a bigger angle, it was close or maybe I'm just bad. 😅😂 had to adjust a little be more to make the ball go in

Does it work with left or right effects on the white ball

Very helpful video, but can we discuss WHY it works? Most of us learned early on that, on a cut shot, you can't aim the middle of the CB at the contact point, because the curvature of the balls causes too thick of a hit, so you'll undercut the shot. So my understanding of this shaft aiming system is that using the edge of the shaft to adjust your aim compensates for the roundness of the balls, eliminating the built-in undercut. Does that sound right, or am I completely messing this up? Thanks.

Where do you look while delivering the cue on the cue ball or the object ball

You don’t. The thing that makes this interesting is that, while I tried to illiterate using a camera, I’d never be able to truly show what I see because the camera only has one lens but we have two eyes. Our perception is what makes this work so well. Which also makes it hard to explain.

This is very interesting. So if you have a ghost ball aim already is the shaft edge just like a fine tune?

This is great as I use this system; However, I am trying to figure out the exact aiming point on the object ball when applying English. And I’m thinking it depends on the angle that the cue/object ball/pocket make. And also considered angle for center ball aiming to object ball. Thoughts on considering the angles?

Different parts of the cueball will impart different amounts of deflection. And different shafts, tips etc are variables as well. I recommend experimenting to dial in what works for you.
