@@Meltdown900cc I don't think you can see the "About" section on a mobile device, you have to use a computer. I wonder if they'll ever fix that in the KZread app.

Why I watch Chris's lessons is that he is strikingly honest His lessons opens my mind to what he demonstrates with simplicity and yet technical enough to tease my curiosity on the subject. This CTE aiming was well thought out and presented in a professional manner. Great job Chris, keep on teaching.

Since I've heard CTE way back 2006 and search You Tube, I never encounter a very SIMPLE yet effective/understandable video like these. Keep up the good work and more power.

A very simple and very effective CTE demo! I realy learned a lot! Lahhvhette! Thanx a lot. Rexes Ratunil Ragmac here from Iligan City, Philippines.

I've started to use the CTE system much more this year, And you explain it very well. I await for the next video as all of them are very informative. Thanks for taking the time and helping us all.

Oh my gosh! Sharp angle shots come fairly easy for me and are my favorite to make. This system makes sense of it all. Can't wait to add spin to this!

Can't even tell you how much your videos have helped me.... especially since I've been in a slump lately.... keep em coming.

Outstanding detail in your explanations on executions of these shots. I'v been playing for about 4 years now, and have been working on my aiming for awhile now. Your videos on cte have been a tremendous help to bring me to a more consistent level of play. Please continue bringing your knowledge and help with these videos. Thank you just doesnt seem to be enough. Your awesome and Thank You !!!

I have watched the cte lesson over five time, I must say i see a big improvement every time I apply it. Thank you Lil'Chris

Wow! One of the best descriptions of CTE ever! I use this when I have a close cut angle to make it to the long rail pocket. Works great, but now you showed me how to do it on other shots as well. Thanks for such a creative way of shooting. I enjoy your videos so keep them coming. Be blessed.

I would like to say this is the best explanation of CTE that I’ve heard yet thank you very much.

The CTE aiming system is exactly what I was looking for. It will help my wife and I to better line up our shots. Thank you very much for your clear instruction

Your video’s make learning fun and informative. I usually watch your content 1-2 times and then practice within a couple of hours. I’m always delighted when I can repeat what you taught. It’s always very rewarding and encouraging. I’ve played pool casually / recreationally for 40 years. But now I’m retired and want to learn to play better. Your video’s and instruction are helping me to do so. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Thank you so much! I’ve always struggled with cut shots. This has helped me tremendously 💕

Great explanations. Glad to see you're back.

Thank you so much for explaining the CTE system. My wife and I was needing a simple system to help with cut shots. Your instruction is very detailed and easy to understand. Thanks again

This example of the CTE is one of the most comprehensive one's I've seen. Very informative. Thank you.

Very effective instruction. If I slow down and repeat until it gets through my thick head on the angles, it finally starts to make sense. This is something I can practice live or virtual in my head, by simply rewatching and studying your presentation. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us. You impress me with your knowledge and you are obviously gifted. Keep up the good work!

Very good explanation on CTE! I've used CTE on and off for years and found your video very helpful in my understanding of how CTE works. I especially liked how you explained executing the "sweep". Thank you for your hard work and I look forward to more videos. I missed the raffle but your video is more rewarding than a prize, keep up the good work.

Again, great video and so far the best description of CTE. With those 5 degree adjustments, you have actually made CTE usable. However, still several points to be aware: 1. The objective of CTE is to provide an easier to follow aiming system than estimating the ghost ball. However, with the current system Chris introduced, a player needs to estimate the cutting angle, the ABC point on the object ball, and also the half-tip pivot on the cue ball. In my opinion, with all these estimations, it has questionably lost its meaning of a "better" aiming system than just ghost ball aiming. 2. Even a player can follow every step and make all the above estimations correctly, whether or not the player can shoot exactly along where he/she aims would be another question. In my opinion, any aiming system should only be practiced AFTER one can consistently shoot straight stop shots, or at least get a practice cue ball which can give some clear feedback. 3. I am still not an advocate of CTE because all actions rely on pivoting (or sweeping) but still, again, NOT A WORD about bridge lengths was mentioned throughout the video. Just think about it: a player bridging 2 inches from the cue ball would definitely have different pivoting results than a player bridging 8 inches away. Anyways, I really like your videos and I appreciate your great effort. I am just raising these points up and hope they become a good amendment.

Thanks for helping me understand CTE so much better. Great camera shots.

I have watched Stan Shuffett and many others on CTE, you by far explain it so it can be understood and used! Thank you

I spent a few days trying to figure out CTE and from everything I've seen, your explanation is the only one that made sense regarding the aiming and sighting to points A, B, and C. Very well done. Thanks a bunch!

I just think your videos are wonderful. I love the CTE videos and plan to watch this past one again and again. I think I have been using this technique for quite sometime but, your makes sense. Keep on Chris, with your videos. They are very helpful.

Finally a clear description of CTE. What a great job, thank you Chris for what had to be very time consuming effort for you.

I like the way you teach! CTE is new to me, but your instructional videos have really made sense to me. Thanks for sharing this information with everyone. It's really appreciated.

Another great instructional video!!! Keep them coming!!! Little things I’m leaning here and there are adding up and making my game better. Thank you

Your videos have help me with a lot misses I’ve made over the years. Thanks

Thank you Chris. Great camera work and explanation of CTE. SO much better then other videos on the Tube. Keep them coming. 👍

Have watched CTE video several time, with repetition and practice it is becoming more and more natural when I line up a shot.Thankyou

I'm just learning to play and this method although complex to explain is working with practice. Thank you. I've watched many videos and seem to follow your method of teaching better.

Ever since I stumbled on one of your videos, you are my go to channel to watch, rewatch and try and execute what I just saw in your videos. Learning from you (a video) has improved my games tremendously. I could only imagine how much I could improve, if you taught me in person. Great videos, keep them coming.

Thanks so much. Your lessons are explicit and easy to understand and follow.

Thank you for your pedagogical approach to a problem I often face in league games. I cannot wait to try this out. I am also grateful for the fact that your channel has significantly grown and that is due to the fact that your videos are excellent tutorials that even a novice myself can understand. Godspeed and I cannot wait to see more videos.

Excellent, thank you! You have lifted the fog around CTE. Simple explanation, and easy to understand. No eye glazing :-)

this is the first I've heard of CTE. Nice understandable explanation and demonstration. I'll now go watch the first video.

Great videos as always. I watch them multiple times as I learn something new each time I view them. Keep up the great work Chris. Thank you

Another drill to add to my routine........ Thank you for the very detailed explanation of an aiming system......

You present techniques clearly and concisely. Thanks

I always enjoy your videos. It seems like you are always trying to simplify the techniques to make it easier to be successful at this beautiful game. Thanks and keep on keeping on.

Awsome lesson... was at friends visiting in Orlando and they a pool table and I was blessed too find a new passion I was always wanting too gett into. Thnx.boss

Been trying cte for 3 months.. and my shots been improving significantly.. your tutorial make it more comprehensive.. thanks chriss.. 😊😊

Use a 15 and a 30 it make EVERY SINGLE bank you can come up with as creative as you want to get just pick CTE and Edge to A and try both pivots if you see Edge to A with a left would be how you would cut a shot into the corner than Refence the other side of the OB use EDGE TO A but try a diffent pivot direction and you will see how the balls start tracking to a pocket 1 2 3 4 and 5 rail banks all those banks are the same algnment you use to make a slight angle cut The 15 and the same way you make a straight in shot THE FIFETEEN NOW USE SAME WAY YOU MADE THE STRAIGHT IN and start playing with the banks you gonna blow your mind when you start making 3 and 4 rail banks 3 out of 5 trys is non uncomon once you can use this system for normal shots you will find all these crazy looking banks are like your firing a straight in Shot

As a 71 yr old newbie your explanations on how to line up for a shot are enlightening, gives me a new set of eyes. enjoy your tutorials and video's

Great Job Chris, You have helped me to finally start to understand this System. Thank You!!!!!

Great info! Thanks for all the help. I've been trying to figure this out and having problems doing so. Can't wait to go try some of this that you have so graciously shared.

I love the videos Chris, keep them coming! I haven’t had as much free time to practice as I wish, but your lessons, advice and tips have already helped to improve my game a great bit! That nice case may help improve it even more lol 😉👍🏼

I have been so inspired by your channel and teachings which I opened my own channel. Improved a ton! Thanks so much Chris!

Another great video clarifying the complexities of CTE that need instructions like this to assist in the learning process of a system that is not easy to explain, Thanks.

Hi Lil' Chris. As always your videos are instructional and easy to follow. Keep up the good work for those like me that love the sport but are not very talented at it. Perseverance is the key to success.

You explained this better in simple terms to understand. Thanks. Keep them coming.

Thanks again for this improved information about CTE specially the last minutes when you discussed about using side spin in CTE also the adjustments to make. I appreciate the video, can't wait to practice it thoroughly tomorrow in our local billiards place,very informative and looking forward for more videos.

Freaking AWESOME video - even better than the first one. thanks so much for going through the in-betweens in that fan of markers. that really helps!!!

Hi Chris, thx for your interpretation for the CTE, i still learning it on the table, but you lesson make it easier for me to understand it

I really love listening to you, easy to follow, great direction, and calming voice!

Your video is really helping me to understand the CTE system .. Now I can do some hit easily with your method...Thank you so much.. May God bless you sir Lil Chris...

Great advice every time i watch your videos!!!! I learn new things every time i watch your videos and apply them to my game and my friends can see the results and say "you have been practicing"!!! But what they don't know is i watch your videos and your my secret weapon!!!!

Many thanks for the concise, professionally presented, and accurate videos. I first started watching showing kicks and banks. CTE as explained in other videos is and was confusing. Your explanation has cleared things up considerably. I’ll be putting some table time in front of TV with your videos on screen. And, thanks for showing the APA pool league match with three consecutive break and runs. I’ve only had two break and runs out of a match of five games. I have a feeling that’s going to change thanks to you.

Great video. I have been studying aiming systems a lot recently and I will definitely be giving this interpretation of CTE a try. Thank you very much

Thanks Chris for providing 'understandable' advice on the CTE aiming technique. Will begin using it tomorrow at my next APA league night.

Thanks for vid. Explained very well and not hard to understand. I've been practicing the cte since i saw your first video, very effective.

Another great video, so I need to get back to the lab and put in a lot of practice! Thanks again for for all of the useful information!

Great explanation of the CTE system, looking forward to your future videos!

Thanks for the Videos!! I APPRECIATE all of the tips you give to us I'm just getting back into what was one of my first Loves while growing up in Los Angeles Thanks !!!

After realizing it's different from the first video, I finally understand the system. It shows how successful and impressing your first video already was.

I recommend these videos to many starters, amateurs, and pros. And this video is perfect for an amateur I know that has issues with CTE. So next lessons I have with him I am going to show him this video and have him try it out. Thank. you for the amazing videos it has helped many of my students

Nicely done Chris....you you simplified a lot of the over complicated and overdone explanations by a well thought out demonstration and professional delivery. Thank you so much.

Enjoyed the video. I also have had trouble learning the CTE system. I think you do a great job of explaining it from your perception. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Amazing! this CTE actually gives me a reference to aim at with cut shots! I've always just Eyeballed it n of course missed quite a bit...gotta try this!

You decoded a complicated system, made it clear and simple, thank you.. Big help for my game.

Glad you are back!! Thanks for the video

Your CTE Aiming System presentation was very helpful and works for me. Thanx..

Awesome tutorial! I'm replicating everything almost exactly as how you set it up so I can get a better understanding of CTE before I practice in real game situations.

As a newer player I have learned so much from your videos and look forward to many more. Oh and I really like the matches you have posted. Thanks again

I thought you did a great job. I have seen the CTE before but never looked into it. Keep up the great work.

I think you did a good job of explaining a difficult aiming system. I have watched a few videos on CTE and found it confusing. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and doing a multi view of the shots.

Thanks for the videos you have shared with us , I have found them very helpful.

Great video. You make it very easy to understand and apply to ones game. Thanks and keep up the good work.!!

My very 1st time encounter CTE Aiming System and i had never tried it. but it really sounds very effective and very well explained. i shud practice and try this tomorrow. This very useful for my every game here in the Philippines. Thank you Sir Lil'.

I am a beginner pool player on a women’s league, i have played here and there and I never knew this was behind shooting, ur video was prime to me because i can apply more to what i am learning with hand and cue positions, loved ur camera/video shots, thank u

Enjoy seeing your videos I have a 55inch tv at the end of our table and me and my daughter watch them while we practice.

I've been playing since I was 11ish and I'm 38 now had a long break but when my daughter showed interest 1 day and she had natural talent I immediately bought a 4x8 table and I got my cues from closet and started showing her some things

his-You're one of the best instructors on the game of pocket billiards I've come across-You explain EVERYTHING perfectly clear.Most recently after 25yrs. with my cue in the case it's come back out of the bag and rekindled my love of the game-I'm struggling but persistent and just wanted to THANK YOU for your insight

Great video Chris. This was easier to follow than teaching me CTE in person. Love the giveaway case too! Take care.

The intro is like a comedy skit, just shoot the ball, such an easy shot, but really, I didn't even know what a sweep was, then go get your broom. You're a great teacher.

Great job shedding some light to CTE.

Good job!!! Step by step explained!!! Keep your excellent work up !!!

Sure enjoy your videos. It’s nice to see several inputs on many shots.

Solid CTE explanation once again! Really enjoy your videos and congrats on 25k!

Just subscribed today, been watching ur videos for a couple days now. Thank u for throughly explaining everything u title ur videos with. Very helpful!

Great video! Helped me to understand the CTE aiming system a lot better!

Awesome video Chris! Knowledge is power. Keep em coming

Thanks for helping me and others see shots differently to help with position.

Great job explaining CTE, gonna take this to the table and try it out asap

This videos are making me fall deeply in love for billiard

Very interesting this CTE has always been confusing to me but you have made it much clear!

Extremely helpful thank you so much, my game has really improved.

Great instruction as always - thanks Chris! Good luck to everyone on the giveaway

so much info to try and absorb. thinking i'll need to watch this video a few times.

nice video Chris very easy to follow unlike some other videos I have tried to watch on CTE.

Thank you so much for all your videos. I have not played pool regularly for a few years now due to a move and retirement. I started watching your videos and have seen some definite improvement in my game and practice sessions. The (CTE) Aiming System video was easy to understand and I hope to incorporate this system into my game. Thanks again for you videos and the giveaway.

I was just starting to wonder if you had stopped making videos. Now I have mixed reviews about this one. The first 8 minutes, I think didn't help me much at all. Personally. I hope it does help other people, and I appreciate you taking the time to try and enunciate how exactly this system works. And I am really interested in this system, but I cant seem to grasp the subtleties. I thought I did, so I took it to the table after your last video, but couldn't get it to work. A little more stuck with me this time from 10 minutes on, but will have to take it to the table again and see. I feel very comfortable with my shot making ability, but, this could surely add to my Hail Mary shots, akin to memorizing a kicking system to get you out of a jam. Again, thank you for taking time and trying to explain to the rest of us. And looking forward to your next topic. :)
