Chris; I've practiced your original simple method and found it works well for me. I've also tried using a pro-one variant, as I understand it, based on your interpretation of CTE. Have you done, or would you consider producing a video/explanation of pro one? Thanks.
Stan shuffet made stupid videos about cte and said a whole lot of nothing and kept hawking his 40 dollar vids. My buddy bought it and we watched it and Holy sht you would think he was trying to teach differential calculus.
@@JohnS-il1dr don’t get me wrong, Stan knows what he’s talking about, he’s an amazing coach, he just doesn’t know how to teach it to the common player who has limited practice time, he raised an 18 year old to spank one of the greatest ever in a competition match. But his instructional videos are just entirely too over complicated for even really good players to get value from them. Chris may not be the best player out there, but he is amazing at breaking things down simply for everyday players to be able to instantly implement.
i would like to thank you for making it easyer for me yo understand CTE. your videos are a great help. if you get time could you do a video on how to hit a object ball going 1 or 2 rails where you don"t give ball in hand.
If anyone was going to make this method easy to digest for the everyday person it was bound to be Chris. Phenomenal teaching skills. No fiddling around just straight to the point.
First he had to understand CTE at a high level. Next he had to come up with a plan to teach it. He did both of those things better than anyone I've seen to date.
I've listened to numerous people try to explain CTE aiming system and they all failed miserably until now. This like all of your videos is outrageously easy to understand which is greatly appreciated. And one instructor who tries to explain this and I'm not going to name is very well respected and what he does is just yap away saying the same thing over and over again that made no sense the first time he said it and he ends up shooting shots while he continues to yap away and we have no effing idea what he's doing. For some strange reason this instructor has comments disabled for his videos. I'm guessing he got tired of reading how bad he is at instructing. This video is fantastic. Thank you Lil' Chris !
Thank you for this, Chris! I must have watched a dozen CTE videos from UA-cam; most left me frustrated. Yours provide the clearest explanation of the system BY FAR! It shows that you are more than a great pool player - you are an excellent teacher!
watched this video a few days back and decided to try out CTE aiming with your instructions. Potted 65 out of 100 balls on first try, 76 out of 100 on second try. Seems like this one suits me really well, I will try to implement it more often for some harder cut shots. Thanks Chris, everyone should subscribe
Thank you. I was completely overwhelmed and lost with Stan's 33 hours of videos. You distilled it to 11 minutes and now I get it. It works amazingly well.
Chris, you are a genius. For me you are the first person to explain a rather complex system in such simple terms for many of us to understand. You are a natural instructor. Thanks a million, tried it yesterday on the tables and won a heap of money!
You are absolutely right. He explains it in simple terms and does not digress into other useless information trying to demonstrate how knowledgeable he is. He focusses on the key elements on how it works and illustrates it very clearly. In other videos people ramble on how it works and then just shoot without demonstrating what they are actually doing. They could be bullshitting and we can't really tell.
I’m very glad to see this shown. I began playing billiards at the age of 10. I used the 10 ball instead of The Cue Ball to understand what was going on with the ball I was hitting. One day At the age of 15 I was introduced to my brothers best friends grandfather. This man played professionally. He was watching me shoot his table for a brief period of time and he realized that I actually saw the lines on the table to make my shots. Even bank shots were simple. playing on the league pool games people knew do not leave me a bank shot on any ball especially the 8 ball because I will most likely make it.This is without me reading books or educating myself on how to play better. It was just playing with the 10 a lot it and was my body that was creating the angle. Joe saw the deep passion that I had for billiards(ALL) and said as long as I promised to never ever bet anything on this game He would teach me a few little tips and tricks one of which was NEVER ever hit left or right of center. I was using the same the system without even knowing what the name of it was. I kept my promise to Joe and never disrespected him or the sport by betting anything on it. I had old teammates that thought I had no idea what I was doing. However those are not the teammates that I went to the APA tournament in Vegas in 2011. Out of over a thousand teams the team I was fortunate enough to be on came in 147th. So we won a small amount of money however nothing will ever replace the passion I have for billiards and respect and gratitude I’ve held for Joe all these years. A extremely important thing for a new pool or billiards player is to know how to chalk properly and after each and EVERY shot! Our team represented the state of Massachusetts in the year 2011 with the team that I was on and I was not questioning my shooting style/system There are many systems out there to learn however I stick with the basics just like Joe showed me to do. Joe you are missed.
Thank you for that well done and finally straight to the point explanation. I've watched at least five rambling, mumbling inarticulate and snooze inducing videos that made me want to strangle someone. One guy went through all the aiming systems he used over the last twenty years before he got to CTE. It was like watching home movies of a family on a carnival cruise, I nearly opened a vein. Another guy kept calling his index finger his fore finger. WTF is a fore finger? I almost did the unthinkable and considered taking up golf. You saved me.
Wow...I just finished an hour of practice and thank you for finally explaining it so that it is understandable... we have league championships tomorrow night ....I am really confident..thanks again
Wow! This lesson has to be the most practical, straightforward, and logical I’ve ever had - on video or person-to-person . . . thank you for breaking down what can be for some (me) the ever-bewildering concept of aiming, and putting it together with awesome videography to create that visual memory to play in my mind’s eye as I get down on my shots. I’m looking forward to getting to the pool hall early before league play tonight and practicing using my new visual memory of aiming and angles. Thank you for all your videos - they’re very well-done - professional and informative. God bless you!
Thank you very much. I waded through the CTE videos and reading material, was overwhelmed and gave up. You made it easy to understand and it works very well. I'm a convert!
Now I understand why they explained it in a very complicated way. If not, they couldn't make a book to sell, because actually it's very simple method. I've tried it once, I couldn't pot the ball as I want to do random experiment, but it's very close and I'm amazed, now I just have to get used to it. Still, IMHO before learning how to aim with CTE, we must have a good understanding of ghostball aiming too. Next, I will try to mix them both, because I think, they complemented each other. Salute for your legendary explanation, sir. God bless 🙏
Chris, I have to say, as someone who learned the basics of CTE from (Blackjack), that is exactly the way Hal Houle would want it explained. Keep up the great work.
You believe someone who claims to be out in the country, happens to see a ROUND BARN. Takes out his gun & shoots holes in the barn? Then another guy has a video w/ a round barn model on the pool table. Same guy claims to know how most pro's think.
Ive recently started playing pool and this actually helped me a lot to develop my aim, you've explained this in a simplest and most understanding way possible
I practised the CTE last night after watching your vid Lil' Chris, And damn oh damn, after a few practices it's beautiful man. The guys at the local pub thought I was on some contraband or something. Thanks a lot mate
This is the first video of yours I have ever seen. Just like you I have heard , seen, read, and watch videos on CTE. You have the best explanation for it and I thank you. I will subscribe
I have struggled with CTE for quite a long time. Your explanation and demo has finally clarified CTE for me. It really does work. Thanks for the great lesson.
I just love your videos. you explain things in a simple but direct way! you have made my love for the game come back. My life isn't the same since my brain tumor operation. and I'm serious about when I say you have inspired me to pick up my stick and chalk it. I'll never be as good as I once was do to physical reasons. but slowly im learning my way around the table. THX to You thx Chris
Chris, This is the best instruction for aiming with the CTE system. I agree to get to this point of understanding, of this aiming system, is very difficult and time consuming. I appreciate your effort to simplify this technique. Thanks
Thanks for the video. I don’t understand how other CTE videos out them makes no sense and very difficult to follow. Simple explanation is best; great job. I also did a CTE video, my version also, just want share. Thank you for not complicating CTE and the two cameras are a plus.
I've got a student with limited vision in one eye, and I've run through a bunch of things in trying to teach them. From what I see here I believe this will work for them. I appreciate the clarity.
Best instructional pool videos on UA-cam. Every other channel makes me feel like I can do it but this one makes me feel like I can do it and then I’m actually able to do it. AMAZING content Chris. Much appreciated!!!
Lil Chris, I've watched quite a few videos on the CTE method and none of them made sense to me until I saw yours. I can't wait to try it out tomorrow. I thank you.
FINALLY, a complete and comprehensive video on how to interpret and execute CTE! Chris, this video has helped me so much and I want to thank you for putting in the hard work and sharing it with the rest of us. You are a rock star teacher!
Finally! An understandable explanation of CTE. After watching dozens of instructional videos and still not getting it, I was beginning to think that I was just plain dumb. Now I can see that some very good players just don't know how to teach. Thanks Chris.
Great instructional video! I practiced it for about 2 hours tonight, and am amazed with this technique. It makes the 15 or so degree cuts extremely simple to make. Thanks for the clear explanation.
Being honest, I'm usually waay too drunk by this time to be counting degrees. Thus, for the most part, pool is a game of 'feel'. Even as drunk as I can get (which is considerable... judge me at your own peril... especially if we're in the same room) I do most of what he talks about in my head, on the fly. These are billiards fundamentals. I love that he is teaching people how to do things I've learned from just playing, since I was a (too) small child in pool halls and beer dives. Listen, learn. This guy knows what' he's talking about. Then, practice until you can do it all on the fly, with a buzz and half a grand riding on the next shot. Cheers and enjoy.
You did an excellent job not with just explaining it, but your illustrations were on point. I have taken lessons on CTE and your 10 min video made it clear….I hope to see more of your videos in the future. Keep up the good work~
I'm relatively new to the game as I had a friend give me a pool table a couple of years ago and I figured since I have a table, I should l really learn the game. I recently joined an APA team and won MVP in 9 ball in my 1st session and since watching this video, I have adopted the CTE system and my shot making has really increased. Thank you for breaking down the information as I have seen other videos and I was left unimpressed. Great job and thanks again!!
I have watched every CTE vide out multiple time and still felt like I didn't get it 100%. But this video is the best, most simplest video I have seen. Thank you sir you have made something complicated very easy I get it now.
My hat is off to you Chris! You have convinced me that CTE works for you at least. Because of your ability to explain how you make it work, I'm gonna give it a go again! I'm optimistic that it will , largely based on your video and your talent in conveying your method. As a number of others have pointed out its a rare person that can simplify a system that here to fore , in spite of many that have sincerely tried to explain, left many of us confused. So again a tip of the hat to you! Well done and thanks!
Very well done. These kind of aiming systems are a bit tricky. I think it depends what level of a player you want to be. I realized after trying multiple aiming systems, I'm better with no system at all. I do a lot of aiming with the edge of my ferrule, and allows me to play any type of english on any shot with ease. But I'm focused on the contact point only. It allows me to worry about my speed, cue ball control, english, etc. I found when I use systems, I worried way to much about making the ball, and less concentration on cue ball control.
@@JH-ji6cj I'm not sure what your asking but if you want to learn full CTE with proper visuals look up Stan Shuffett. He just put out what he calls the truth series video's and sells a book to go with it if you want. Book link is in his video descriptions. He also started a Facebook group and answers questions. Its great! Search CTE on Facebook and you'll find it.
@@JH-ji6cj his book seems a little expensive but it's large and built like a quality text book. Check out the Facebook group and videos first if you want. He's got a real handy training ball too. I'm working on it myself. At first I didn't get the visuals but they do work! It's more than looking at quarters, pivot, shoot. Great group of people there too. He answers questions all the time on there.
Could You Do A Video Next On The Best Ways To See Angles On A Pool Table, 15-30-45-60-75-90 Degrees On The Pool Table Using The Diamonds, Object Ball, And The Cue Ball, Lil' Chris? Thanks.
Poolology Book by Brian Crist Sold on Amazon For 19.99 Is the Best On Sighting The Ball And Knowing The Exact Angle And Ball Cut To Make The Shot, It's The Best Way There Is In Aiming Shots.
This is amazing! I’m a beginner and I’m still figuring out a way to aim my cut shots consistently. Thank you for explaining and showing this and making it the video easy to understand!
Nice job with the explainations and camera angles. It was easy to follow. I had an old guy show me this once and I was sinking cut balls left and right without issue. I let a couple weeks pass without playing pool and when I tried to remember what he showed me, I must have missed a step because I couldn't figure it out and had to cut em in the old way!
You're a bad influence, Chris. Now I have to find a way to hide your video from myu wife. I'm 87 and pool is the only game left she can't beat me at. If I can understand your explanation, she will have no trouble getting it and no qualms about using it with a sweet wifely smile.
Kudos to you Chris... I so so so appreciate you explaining this so straight-forwardly! I've personally talked with Stan over the phone a year and a half ago ... when his tell all book was going to come out... I kept waiting, kept waiting, kept checking his website and facebook... He's saying that he has no control of the publisher when the book will come out. I literally think he'd do well to sell the digital version (pdf)... self-publishing. His videos are so, so hard to grasp with all the general terms. I gave up about four months ago and went total fractional aiming... measuring the angle with my stick and the width of my hand at a certain point of my cue - I established this on my own with 15, 30 and 45 degree cut out triangles that I printed out. It's working really well. I've way upped the level of my play. I can't wait to try out your explanation. again, thanks so much for demystifying!!!
Wow ! I never thought about this system,first I thought this was about English shots . I will have to try this cte aiming system. Thank you for the super video !
Believe me that it works in fact its what pro players and snooker players use. Thats the only explanation to why they stand behind the aiming line. I have been doing it for over a year a its taken my game to the next level but requires lots of practice to master each area of the techniques.
Im not using this system , my opinion to your question is just use the closest degree of ABC and you can make it i think . With the system that i created i have an exact aim point for 22 ., 23 35 and 36
I have to say you explained that better than anyone I've seen. I first learned of this method from Stan Shuffet and he just confused the hell out of me. Great Video
Correct me if i am wrong but this system seems to only be using OUTSIDE PIVOTS away from the cut angle, This is an interesting implementation of CTE. Have been a CTE user for years, and am applying the PRO ONE methods of this which also uses an A B C aiming point on the object Ball while using the Left and Right Edges of the Cue ball to align the shot pre pivot. One of the biggest examples of a difference in implementation of your technique would be at ua-cam.com/video/2E7T0gltORc/v-deo.html 4:54 Where you have a 15 degree cut to your right, in your terms you used a A to A aiming with a Pivot Out. In the PRO ONE method, which sticks to the ABC points being Left To Right, you would use a RIGHT EDGE on Cue Ball to C on the Object Ball with a Pivot Inwards. In all the methods of CTE i've seen so far almost all of them utilise pivots inwards and outwards depending on angle, with yours being the only one which utilises EXCLUSIVELY outward pivots, but with a variations in the Cue Ball Alignment points (being ABC on the cue ball rather than , Centre to Edge, Right Edge to ABC or Left Edge to ABC). Thanks for doing the video, but more impressed with the ingenuity of implementation of a ONE DIRECTIONAL PIVOT CTE. As with all CTE users, i think there are always certain Pivots and shot types that are not as spot on as others, and i think anyone who already uses CTE in any form can benefit from the additional information you have shared here ...... and for those who do not this i a brilliant introduction which removes the "PERCEPTION" mystery behind other CTE Preechers, which to be honest often times diminishes the Technique and over simplifies something that still needs to be practiced. Would love to hear your thoughts on how Bridge Lengths affect your technique as there is always a debate between Starting More Offset Pre Pivot (1.5 tips out) vs using a shorter bridge to set up the pivot which can get the same pivots required when setting up thinner cuts. Well i hope at least one person understood this ?? :) Cheers and keep up the good work Chris
As I mentioned in the video, I had to watch multiple videos multiple times and re-read articles over and over. It wasn't until I got on the table and started trying stuff, that I noticed similarities between all the different interpretations and saw that, for myself, the one directional pivot showed some consistency. I am by NO MEANS, saying this is THE WAY to perform CTE. This is just what I was able to interpret from what I studied. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. If I exposed another perspective into the system, awesome! As far as the ABC (left cut) vs CBA (right cut), I just thought it's easier to remember that A is 15 degree cuts, B never changes (30 degree cuts), and C is 45 degree cuts. I've also read/watched about how the bridge length matters. However, this didn't seem to matter when I was performing the 15/30/45 with my other camera in the way and had a LONG bridge (over a foot). I am NOT saying that the bridge length doesn't matter, I am saying that it didn't seem to have an affect in what I was showing.
@@LilChrisPoolPlayer yup totally agree with ur thoughts on abc relating to a specific angle. Anyway for comparisons sake Pro one Anything less than 30 is a pivot inwards 30 to 43-45 is a pivot outwards 45-50 is a pivot Inwards based off of the 1/4 alignment Anything beyond that is a 1/8th alignment with either in or out. Your system Pivot out for all based on 15 is A 30 is B 45 is C Beyond is 1/8 Personally I think your 30 on B will help me the most as the CTE on B is usually to thick unless you are on tournament conditions!
This is a new take on my previous understanding of the system and definitely very well explained. The issue I have with the system is that it won't work if you're using right or left English which I use on probably 60 percent of my shots. Either way, good video, by far the easiest explanation I've seen.
I agree. His system depends on being able to measure these cut angles. But what about angles in between 15, 30 and 45 degrees? Split the differences somehow?
The cte was explained the right way because I was aiming to far over on the cue ball , explaining the right way help my pool game a lot better, thanks Chris
A couple thoughts. First, this was really interesting, thanks for sharing. I'm going to have to give this a try Second, ok A = 15, B = 30, C = 45 and "D" = ...a lot. This seems overly simple, and your examples specifically show 15, 30, 45, and a very thin cut. My question is, what do you do if you have an angle of, say, 22 degrees. Does aiming right in between A and B work for that? The "D" Spots are very vague in this system - jumping from 45 degrees to the maximum which is around 90 degrees for a centerball hit is a pretty extreme jump. Surely there must be more to it (or, if there's not, that's wild and I'm excited to try it out), but a, say, 85 degree shot must be different from a 65 degree shot, right? (Oh jeez, now that I'm thinking about it, they aren't drastically different. This is blowing my mind a little bit) While this *could* apply for banks, kicks, and caroms, I'm not sure it makes sense to use it in those contexts (we already have the diamond system, tangent line/natural roll logic, etc). However, I'm very curious to know how english affects these shots (Or even like cut induced throw), and I do hope you put out a video explaining it. I'm not trying to be critical - on the contrary, this was an amazing video and my mind is racing with ideas and questions. I'm very excited to head down to the bar tonight and give this a try
CTE is perception based aiming system. Where your mind will adjust your shot. At least that’s what i gathered from Stans videos. I just couldnt understand half the things he was saying as he was using terms like “Visual Sweep”. Wtf is that
You are really a good teacher. I have been watching the videos of stan..howard and john...but you are the only one who really show exactly where to place the cue tip when pivoting. We thank you for your effort to help us learn more about our favorite game. Looking forward for more of your videos. Again...Thank You !!!
I remember a guy coming into the local pool hall when no one but the owner was around. He was a trucker and headed to the US Open in about a month, he came in and we played a little serious for a while. I didn't lose as much as I should have looking back ,but he was better than I was at the time so he started telling me what he was doing and he was using this technique but he had only 3 spots on the ball he called it center to edge. This could be seen most easily on the striped ball because they'd be center and each edge of the stripe. He said then under almost all circumstances you could get a ball back to center table better using one of the three spots then trying to over engineer the amount of English that you were using. Since it's advantageous to get back to the center almost every time anyways he said it made every shot natural just varied by speed. Once in awhile there would be a ball in the way and he'd have to choose one of the other two shots that he could possibly make and hit it harder or softer. He made no mention of moving the tip of the cue back to center. I'm pretty sure what he was telling me was to stroke straight through those individual three spots and learn how to aim on those three spots from any point on the table, removing the majority of shots where you vary the English and increasing the effectiveness of my practice. I used it for a while and it helped my game a lot, especially on tough cut shots and close to the rail shots it just simplified them and on top of that help me get back to center table when I wanted it. You'll still need to figure out what those old timers were trying to tell you to win, but some of them teach it simpler than others.
I'm anxious to give it a try. After countless lessons, books and videos I gave up on CTE. Your explanation seems extremely simple to understand. I'm going to work on it. Thanks for sharing.
I watched lots of videos on yt about this aiming style and i did not understand any of them! Even if i repeatedly watch their videos i still didn't get it. But amazingly i just watched once your video and tadaaa i got to understand it. Now it is just a matter of practicing and picking what aiming letter to use... 😅 Thanks kid
Thanks, I appreciate that. I would say that this first interpretation is "incomplete" as I don't go into using spin on the cue ball, so be sure to check out the follow on video ua-cam.com/video/0iJNc64j16Y/v-deo.html It contains some changes from this video, but goes more in depth.
Don't know exactly when I gave up on trying to learn CTE but I am so glad I stumbled on your site and watched it. I really thought this was going to be a waste of time. Just another laborious journey through the sludge of CTE. Wow! Chris your are so smart in delivering me out of the fog of inept teachers. You nailed it, there's hope. Thanks.
Great explanation Chris. Been dabbling for about a year and half and can make great shots. Even the pure founders of cte do not explain like this , and those guys do a great job with cte. This just simplifies the process.
I agree. Its complicated. I tried leaning it before was not able to get it right. Now that you explained it in detailed, I will be trying it again. Thanks. Thumbs Up
just watched this for a second time. The video should win some kind of award it's so well done. Even if Lil' Chris never becomes a professional player he has a bright future in teaching the game if he wants to do that in my opinion. One thing about CTE: in my opinion it's a fantastic way to aim shots without spin. I'm visualizing using CTE with spin by changing the aiming point on the object ball and then parallel shifting the cue to the right or left to create an accurate shot with spin. I have not tried it yet though so I could be way off base here. CTE aiming works so there must be a way to incorporate that system of aiming when using spin. I am convinced of that.
This is the first "basic" interpretation of the system after studying it for a short period. I have an "intermediate" interpretation here: ua-cam.com/video/0iJNc64j16Y/v-deo.html This has some changes from the "basic" interpretation.
Best thing that I have been recomemded to watch. I watched a few videos on CTE but ended up more confused ..This simple explain explation has made understanding easy..Legend!!
See my follow on video where I go more in depth on what I've learned about the CTE aiming system here:
ua-cam.com/video/0iJNc64j16Y/v-deo.html
Chris; I've practiced your original simple method and found it works well for me. I've also tried using a pro-one variant, as I understand it, based on your interpretation of CTE. Have you done, or would you consider producing a video/explanation of pro one? Thanks.

So glad this is the first video I watched. When it started I was confused by now I’m going to practice!
MUST BE TALKING ABOUT BERGER
It took years upon years for someone to finally explain this system in a non confusing mind fucking way. *You're a legend* Chris!
DUDE SERIOUSLY...the last video I saw was some absurdly good player using terminology and methodologies that I couldn't fathom.
That is a problem with this system, it is a mindfucker. I refuse to use system that messes up with my brain
well taught with simplicity and clarity. Thanks!

Thank you for this, Chris! I must have watched a dozen CTE videos from UA-cam; most left me frustrated. Yours provide the clearest explanation of the system BY FAR! It shows that you are more than a great pool player - you are an excellent teacher!
watched this video a few days back and decided to try out CTE aiming with your instructions. Potted 65 out of 100 balls on first try, 76 out of 100 on second try. Seems like this one suits me really well, I will try to implement it more often for some harder cut shots. Thanks Chris, everyone should subscribe
All the dislikes came from other youtubers trying explain this skill into quantum physics algorithm problem. You just simplified it..Thank You!!!

Jesus, finally someone that can explain this. Man I feel like I have lost so much time trying to understand WTF people are talking about.
I’m very glad to see this shown. I began playing billiards at the age of 10. I used the 10 ball instead of The Cue Ball to understand what was going on with the ball I was hitting. One day At the age of 15 I was introduced to my brothers best friends grandfather. This man played professionally. He was watching me shoot his table for a brief period of time and he realized that I actually saw the lines on the table to make my shots. Even bank shots were simple. playing on the league pool games people knew do not leave me a bank shot on any ball especially the 8 ball because I will most likely make it.This is without me reading books or educating myself on how to play better. It was just playing with the 10 a lot it and was my body that was creating the angle. Joe saw the deep passion that I had for billiards(ALL) and said as long as I promised to never ever bet anything on this game He would teach me a few little tips and tricks one of which was NEVER ever hit left or right of center. I was using the same the system without even knowing what the name of it was. I kept my promise to Joe and never disrespected him or the sport by betting anything on it. I had old teammates that thought I had no idea what I was doing. However those are not the teammates that I went to the APA tournament in Vegas in 2011. Out of over a thousand teams the team I was fortunate enough to be on came in 147th. So we won a small amount of money however nothing will ever replace the passion I have for billiards and respect and gratitude I’ve held for Joe all these years. A extremely important thing for a new pool or billiards player is to know how to chalk properly and after each and EVERY shot! Our team represented the state of Massachusetts in the year 2011 with the team that I was on and I was not questioning my shooting style/system There are many systems out there to learn however I stick with the basics just like Joe showed me to do. Joe you are missed.
Thank you for that well done and finally straight to the point explanation. I've watched at least five rambling, mumbling inarticulate and snooze inducing videos that made me want to strangle someone. One guy went through all the aiming systems he used over the last twenty years before he got to CTE. It was like watching home movies of a family on a carnival cruise, I nearly opened a vein. Another guy kept calling his index finger his fore finger. WTF is a fore finger? I almost did the unthinkable and considered taking up golf. You saved me.
ITS ABOUT TIME someone explains this system clearly and thorough!! Headed to the table now
I have watched multiple videos on CTE and only after watching your video did I finally grasped it.
"You're good."
Thanks
Wow...I just finished an hour of practice and thank you for finally explaining it so that it is understandable... we have league championships tomorrow night ....I am really confident..thanks again
Watched many CTE aiming system tutorial. This is the most crystal clear tutorial i have watched
Wow! This lesson has to be the most practical, straightforward, and logical I’ve ever had - on video or person-to-person . . . thank you for breaking down what can be for some (me) the ever-bewildering concept of aiming, and putting it together with awesome videography to create that visual memory to play in my mind’s eye as I get down on my shots. I’m looking forward to getting to the pool hall early before league play tonight and practicing using my new visual memory of aiming and angles. Thank you for all your videos - they’re very well-done - professional and informative. God bless you!
Thank you very much. I waded through the CTE videos and reading material, was overwhelmed and gave up. You made it easy to understand and it works very well. I'm a convert!
Now I understand why they explained it in a very complicated way. If not, they couldn't make a book to sell, because actually it's very simple method. I've tried it once, I couldn't pot the ball as I want to do random experiment, but it's very close and I'm amazed, now I just have to get used to it. Still, IMHO before learning how to aim with CTE, we must have a good understanding of ghostball aiming too. Next, I will try to mix them both, because I think, they complemented each other. Salute for your legendary explanation, sir. God bless 🙏
Hello! Also you need to visualize the angle where you at.....
All I saw prior to your video on this topic was so confusing. You have made it simple and so clear. Thank you very much. I am impressed.
Chris, I have to say, as someone who learned the basics of CTE from (Blackjack), that is exactly the way Hal Houle would want it explained. Keep up the great work.
You believe someone who claims to be out in the country, happens to see a ROUND BARN. Takes out his gun & shoots holes in the barn? Then another guy has a video w/ a round barn model on the pool table. Same guy claims to know how most pro's think.
Ive recently started playing pool and this actually helped me a lot to develop my aim, you've explained this in a simplest and most understanding way possible
I practised the CTE last night after watching your vid Lil' Chris, And damn oh damn, after a few practices it's beautiful man. The guys at the local pub thought I was on some contraband or something. Thanks a lot mate
I know I'm late to the party on this, but I'm a novice and new to this system and I was totally confused until I found this. Thank you so much!
This is the first video of yours I have ever seen. Just like you I have heard , seen, read, and watch videos on CTE. You have the best explanation for it and I thank you. I will subscribe
I have struggled with CTE for quite a long time. Your explanation and demo has finally clarified CTE for me. It really does work. Thanks for the great lesson.
I just love your videos. you explain things in a simple but direct way! you have made my love for the game come back. My life isn't the same since my brain tumor operation. and I'm serious about when I say you have inspired me to pick up my stick and chalk it.
I'll never be as good as I once was do to physical reasons.
but slowly im learning my way around the table.
THX to You thx Chris
Chris, This is the best instruction for aiming with the CTE system. I agree to get to this point of understanding, of this aiming system, is very difficult and time consuming. I appreciate your effort to simplify this technique.
Thanks
Thanks for the video. I don’t understand how other CTE videos out them makes no sense and very difficult to follow. Simple explanation is best; great job. I also did a CTE video, my version also, just want share. Thank you for not complicating CTE and the two cameras are a plus.
I've got a student with limited vision in one eye, and I've run through a bunch of things in trying to teach them. From what I see here I believe this will work for them. I appreciate the clarity.
Finally. This is the best explanation of CTE I've seen so far.
because the other video main intention is to buy the cd thats their explanation is not really clear =0
@@juanball5480 Yeah that's true of a lot of them. I even think there are shills out there that pretend to teach it, but are deliberately vague
Best instructional pool videos on UA-cam. Every other channel makes me feel like I can do it but this one makes me feel like I can do it and then I’m actually able to do it. AMAZING content Chris. Much appreciated!!!
Lil Chris, I've watched quite a few videos on the CTE method and none of them made sense to me until I saw yours. I can't wait to try it out tomorrow. I thank you.
Finally, a video that explains CTE in clear language. You are a great teacher!
Oh yeah. Finally a video on CTE that anyone could understand. Thank you for doing this Chris!
Hat's off to you Chris show making a video that makes CTE clear and allows me to really start being able to use it in real world situations.
FINALLY, a complete and comprehensive video on how to interpret and execute CTE! Chris, this video has helped me so much and I want to thank you for putting in the hard work and sharing it with the rest of us. You are a rock star teacher!
Finally! An understandable explanation of CTE. After watching dozens of instructional videos and still not getting it, I was beginning to think that I was just plain dumb. Now I can see that some very good players just don't know how to teach. Thanks Chris.
Excellent presentation. Going through all the aiming points, left and right, eliminated lots of questions.
Great instructional video! I practiced it for about 2 hours tonight, and am amazed with this technique. It makes the 15 or so degree cuts extremely simple to make. Thanks for the clear explanation.
Great Job Chris! CTE in a simple, easy to understand video...you have a gift for explaining things clearly!
Totally agree!!!
Being honest, I'm usually waay too drunk by this time to be counting degrees. Thus, for the most part, pool is a game of 'feel'. Even as drunk as I can get (which is considerable... judge me at your own peril... especially if we're in the same room) I do most of what he talks about in my head, on the fly. These are billiards fundamentals. I love that he is teaching people how to do things I've learned from just playing, since I was a (too) small child in pool halls and beer dives. Listen, learn. This guy knows what' he's talking about. Then, practice until you can do it all on the fly, with a buzz and half a grand riding on the next shot. Cheers and enjoy.
You did an excellent job not with just explaining it, but your illustrations were on point. I have taken lessons on CTE and your 10 min video made it clear….I hope to see more of your videos in the future. Keep up the good work~
I'm relatively new to the game as I had a friend give me a pool table a couple of years ago and I figured since I have a table, I should l really learn the game. I recently joined an APA team and won MVP in 9 ball in my 1st session and since watching this video, I have adopted the CTE system and my shot making has really increased. Thank you for breaking down the information as I have seen other videos and I was left unimpressed. Great job and thanks again!!
THE BESTSHOWING CTE YET.
I have watched every CTE vide out multiple time and still felt like I didn't get it 100%. But this video is the best, most simplest video I have seen. Thank you sir you have made something complicated very easy I get it now.
I wish i could triple like this video..... I have been playing 12 years and this is my first time hearing CTE. I have to go practice it.
My hat is off to you Chris! You have convinced me that CTE works for you at least. Because of your ability to explain how you make it work, I'm gonna give it a go again! I'm optimistic that it will , largely based on your video and your talent in conveying your method. As a number of others have pointed out its a rare person that can simplify a system that here to fore , in spite of many that have sincerely tried to explain, left many of us confused. So again a tip of the hat to you! Well done and thanks!
Very well done. These kind of aiming systems are a bit tricky. I think it depends what level of a player you want to be. I realized after trying multiple aiming systems, I'm better with no system at all. I do a lot of aiming with the edge of my ferrule, and allows me to play any type of english on any shot with ease. But I'm focused on the contact point only. It allows me to worry about my speed, cue ball control, english, etc. I found when I use systems, I worried way to much about making the ball, and less concentration on cue ball control.
I see people show the angles from above all the time. Showing these angles down on the table was extremely helpful!
Where! I keep people saying things like this regarding CTE, yet no link. What gives??
@@JH-ji6cj I'm not sure what your asking but if you want to learn full CTE with proper visuals look up Stan Shuffett. He just put out what he calls the truth series video's and sells a book to go with it if you want. Book link is in his video descriptions. He also started a Facebook group and answers questions. Its great! Search CTE on Facebook and you'll find it.
@@fixitrod4969 cool, thanks for that. Much appreciated
@@JH-ji6cj his book seems a little expensive but it's large and built like a quality text book. Check out the Facebook group and videos first if you want. He's got a real handy training ball too. I'm working on it myself. At first I didn't get the visuals but they do work! It's more than looking at quarters, pivot, shoot. Great group of people there too. He answers questions all the time on there.
This video is GOLD, thanks for you hard work and time brotha! Keep it up!!! Regards Shane from Trinidad!
My compliments on a well done video that simplifies a great aiming system!! I tried it out for 5 minutes and sunk every shot. Freaking awesome ...
Excellent explanations and demonstrations!!!! Thanks, Chris!!!👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾❤❤😁😁
The clearest description and demo I have seen so yet for this system. Well done.
Could You Do A Video Next On The Best Ways To See Angles On A Pool Table, 15-30-45-60-75-90 Degrees On The Pool Table Using The Diamonds, Object Ball, And The Cue Ball, Lil' Chris?
Thanks.
Treat it like face of a clock. Every 5 minutes segment is 30 degrees and 45 degrees is 1.5 segments or about 7 minutes. Easy to visualize.
Poolology Book by Brian Crist Sold on Amazon For 19.99 Is the Best On Sighting The Ball And Knowing The Exact Angle And Ball Cut To Make The Shot, It's The Best Way There Is In Aiming Shots.
Poolology Explains Aiming Perfectly, Buy The Book, Read It And See How Easy Playing Pool Really Is, Thanks.
Explained very well, Chris. Thanks for simplifying what no others could.
This is amazing! I’m a beginner and I’m still figuring out a way to aim my cut shots consistently. Thank you for explaining and showing this and making it the video easy to understand!
Nice job with the explainations and camera angles. It was easy to follow.
I had an old guy show me this once and I was sinking cut balls left and right without issue. I let a couple weeks pass without playing pool and when I tried to remember what he showed me, I must have missed a step because I couldn't figure it out and had to cut em in the old way!
You're a bad influence, Chris. Now I have to find a way to hide your video from myu wife. I'm 87 and pool is the only game left she can't beat me at. If I can understand your explanation, she will have no trouble getting it and no qualms about using it with a sweet wifely smile.
OMG, at age 87 and you can still play pool!
Huge respect, I wish I can stay on my feet at 40
This man is blessed
Wow hope u live at 200
Kudos to you Chris... I so so so appreciate you explaining this so straight-forwardly! I've personally talked with Stan over the phone a year and a half ago ... when his tell all book was going to come out... I kept waiting, kept waiting, kept checking his website and facebook... He's saying that he has no control of the publisher when the book will come out. I literally think he'd do well to sell the digital version (pdf)... self-publishing. His videos are so, so hard to grasp with all the general terms.
I gave up about four months ago and went total fractional aiming... measuring the angle with my stick and the width of my hand at a certain point of my cue - I established this on my own with 15, 30 and 45 degree cut out triangles that I printed out. It's working really well. I've way upped the level of my play.
I can't wait to try out your explanation. again, thanks so much for demystifying!!!
Does anyone have a good protractor app Chris? I'd hate to roll up at the pool hall with an old school protractor in hand. Lol
Wow ! I never thought about this system,first I thought this was about English shots . I will have to try this cte aiming system. Thank you for the super video !
Amazing . I call the center of object ball “1” each side of center 2 and the far outside 3
Literally the best CTE video there is
Bravo. I've watch a lots of cte and still have a few questions. Now Its been answered.
When I was starting to shoot pool this system didnt make a lick of sense to me. Now here we are 2 years later and you made finally comprehensible.
I'm going to give this a try. I feel like this game is more precise than this system will allow me to be. We'll see how it goes.
I’ve tried CTE a few times . Wasn’t swayed over to it . This video rekindled my interest Chris . Can’t wait to try it . Thank you .
Believe me that it works in fact its what pro players and snooker players use. Thats the only explanation to why they stand behind the aiming line. I have been doing it for over a year a its taken my game to the next level but requires lots of practice to master each area of the techniques.
how about angles such as 22, 23, 35, 36??
Im not using this system , my opinion to your question is just use the closest degree of ABC and you can make it i think . With the system that i created i have an exact aim point for 22 ., 23 35 and 36
@@juanball5480 yea make sense too to me after a while of thinking, for 22.5 degrees I just aimed between points A and B and it worked
I have to say you explained that better than anyone I've seen. I first learned of this method from Stan Shuffet and he just confused the hell out of me. Great Video
I am beginning to wrap my head around it.
Finally a good demonstration and explanation for cut shots
Correct me if i am wrong but this system seems to only be using OUTSIDE PIVOTS away from the cut angle, This is an interesting implementation of CTE. Have been a CTE user for years, and am applying the PRO ONE methods of this which also uses an A B C aiming point on the object Ball while using the Left and Right Edges of the Cue ball to align the shot pre pivot.
One of the biggest examples of a difference in implementation of your technique would be at ua-cam.com/video/2E7T0gltORc/v-deo.html 4:54 Where you have a 15 degree cut to your right, in your terms you used a A to A aiming with a Pivot Out. In the PRO ONE method, which sticks to the ABC points being Left To Right, you would use a RIGHT EDGE on Cue Ball to C on the Object Ball with a Pivot Inwards.
In all the methods of CTE i've seen so far almost all of them utilise pivots inwards and outwards depending on angle, with yours being the only one which utilises EXCLUSIVELY outward pivots, but with a variations in the Cue Ball Alignment points (being ABC on the cue ball rather than , Centre to Edge, Right Edge to ABC or Left Edge to ABC).
Thanks for doing the video, but more impressed with the ingenuity of implementation of a ONE DIRECTIONAL PIVOT CTE. As with all CTE users, i think there are always certain Pivots and shot types that are not as spot on as others, and i think anyone who already uses CTE in any form can benefit from the additional information you have shared here ...... and for those who do not this i a brilliant introduction which removes the "PERCEPTION" mystery behind other CTE Preechers, which to be honest often times diminishes the Technique and over simplifies something that still needs to be practiced.
Would love to hear your thoughts on how Bridge Lengths affect your technique as there is always a debate between Starting More Offset Pre Pivot (1.5 tips out) vs using a shorter bridge to set up the pivot which can get the same pivots required when setting up thinner cuts.
Well i hope at least one person understood this ?? :)
Cheers and keep up the good work Chris
As I mentioned in the video, I had to watch multiple videos multiple times and re-read articles over and over. It wasn't until I got on the table and started trying stuff, that I noticed similarities between all the different interpretations and saw that, for myself, the one directional pivot showed some consistency. I am by NO MEANS, saying this is THE WAY to perform CTE. This is just what I was able to interpret from what I studied. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. If I exposed another perspective into the system, awesome!
As far as the ABC (left cut) vs CBA (right cut), I just thought it's easier to remember that A is 15 degree cuts, B never changes (30 degree cuts), and C is 45 degree cuts.
I've also read/watched about how the bridge length matters. However, this didn't seem to matter when I was performing the 15/30/45 with my other camera in the way and had a LONG bridge (over a foot). I am NOT saying that the bridge length doesn't matter, I am saying that it didn't seem to have an affect in what I was showing.
@@LilChrisPoolPlayer yup totally agree with ur thoughts on abc relating to a specific angle.
Anyway for comparisons sake
Pro one
Anything less than 30 is a pivot inwards
30 to 43-45 is a pivot outwards
45-50 is a pivot Inwards based off of the 1/4 alignment
Anything beyond that is a 1/8th alignment with either in or out.
Your system
Pivot out for all based on
15 is A
30 is B
45 is C
Beyond is 1/8
Personally I think your 30 on B will help me the most as the CTE on B is usually to thick unless you are on tournament conditions!
This is a new take on my previous understanding of the system and definitely very well explained. The issue I have with the system is that it won't work if you're using right or left English which I use on probably 60 percent of my shots. Either way, good video, by far the easiest explanation I've seen.
pls ...make a video on how to identify degree every cut shot..
I agree. His system depends on being able to measure these cut angles. But what about angles in between 15, 30 and 45 degrees? Split the differences somehow?
The cte was explained the right way because I was aiming to far over on the cue ball , explaining the right way help my pool game a lot better, thanks Chris
A couple thoughts.
First, this was really interesting, thanks for sharing. I'm going to have to give this a try
Second, ok A = 15, B = 30, C = 45 and "D" = ...a lot. This seems overly simple, and your examples specifically show 15, 30, 45, and a very thin cut. My question is, what do you do if you have an angle of, say, 22 degrees. Does aiming right in between A and B work for that?
The "D" Spots are very vague in this system - jumping from 45 degrees to the maximum which is around 90 degrees for a centerball hit is a pretty extreme jump. Surely there must be more to it (or, if there's not, that's wild and I'm excited to try it out), but a, say, 85 degree shot must be different from a 65 degree shot, right? (Oh jeez, now that I'm thinking about it, they aren't drastically different. This is blowing my mind a little bit)
While this *could* apply for banks, kicks, and caroms, I'm not sure it makes sense to use it in those contexts (we already have the diamond system, tangent line/natural roll logic, etc). However, I'm very curious to know how english affects these shots (Or even like cut induced throw), and I do hope you put out a video explaining it.
I'm not trying to be critical - on the contrary, this was an amazing video and my mind is racing with ideas and questions. I'm very excited to head down to the bar tonight and give this a try
Yeah, I haven’t study the system enough to know how it applies to banks, caroms, cue ball spin, etc...
As I learn more, I’ll gladly share.
CTE is perception based aiming system. Where your mind will adjust your shot.
At least that’s what i gathered from Stans videos. I just couldnt understand half the things he was saying as he was using terms like “Visual Sweep”. Wtf is that
I can finally understand the tomfoolery that is CTE. Thanks man! I'll be sure to try this asap.
I think I’ll just think of A B & C as 15 30 & 45 degrees remembering the 15 is always on the inside. Well that makes sense to me at least...
Another commentor mentioned, ICO or OCI
I = Inside, C = Center, and O = Outside.
I thought it would be easier to for me to identify which aim point to use if I eliminated having to translate the degree into a letter. Ya know 😄
Nice explanation and illustration on CTE aiming system. I am now applying it in my play as beginner. Thanks Lil Chris.
HELLO CHRIS ! THANKS I NEED TO WORK ON THIS .YOU MAKE IT LOOK EASY
You are really a good teacher. I have been watching the videos of stan..howard and john...but you are the only one who really show exactly where to place the cue tip when pivoting. We thank you for your effort to help us learn more about our favorite game. Looking forward for more of your videos. Again...Thank You !!!
Probably the best explanation on cut shot aiming I've watched. Thanks for the video.
I remember a guy coming into the local pool hall when no one but the owner was around. He was a trucker and headed to the US Open in about a month, he came in and we played a little serious for a while. I didn't lose as much as I should have looking back ,but he was better than I was at the time so he started telling me what he was doing and he was using this technique but he had only 3 spots on the ball he called it center to edge. This could be seen most easily on the striped ball because they'd be center and each edge of the stripe. He said then under almost all circumstances you could get a ball back to center table better using one of the three spots then trying to over engineer the amount of English that you were using. Since it's advantageous to get back to the center almost every time anyways he said it made every shot natural just varied by speed. Once in awhile there would be a ball in the way and he'd have to choose one of the other two shots that he could possibly make and hit it harder or softer.
He made no mention of moving the tip of the cue back to center. I'm pretty sure what he was telling me was to stroke straight through those individual three spots and learn how to aim on those three spots from any point on the table, removing the majority of shots where you vary the English and increasing the effectiveness of my practice.
I used it for a while and it helped my game a lot, especially on tough cut shots and close to the rail shots it just simplified them and on top of that help me get back to center table when I wanted it.
You'll still need to figure out what those old timers were trying to tell you to win, but some of them teach it simpler than others.
@@mycupoftea3866
Yeah that might have been what he was doing but he definitely called it center to edge aiming.
I'm anxious to give it a try. After countless lessons, books and videos I gave up on CTE. Your explanation seems extremely simple to understand. I'm going to work on it. Thanks for sharing.
I watched lots of videos on yt about this aiming style and i did not understand any of them! Even if i repeatedly watch their videos i still didn't get it. But amazingly i just watched once your video and tadaaa i got to understand it. Now it is just a matter of practicing and picking what aiming letter to use... 😅 Thanks kid
I have to watch twice to understand how the CTE aiming system work. Very nice and usefull !, i must practice now.
Thanks, I appreciate that. I would say that this first interpretation is "incomplete" as I don't go into using spin on the cue ball, so be sure to check out the follow on video
ua-cam.com/video/0iJNc64j16Y/v-deo.html
It contains some changes from this video, but goes more in depth.
Don't know exactly when I gave up on trying to learn CTE but I am so glad I stumbled on your site and watched it. I really thought this was going to be a waste of time. Just another laborious journey through the sludge of CTE. Wow! Chris your are so smart in delivering me out of the fog of inept teachers.
You nailed it, there's hope. Thanks.
thanks chris, it's super helpful. although I need to watch it 3 times to figure it out but it's still the best tutorial so far on youtube.
I've also been watching a lot of different videos on this method. I believe I finally got the concept. Thank you for the videos.
Great explanation Chris.
Been dabbling for about a year and half and can make great shots.
Even the pure founders of cte do not explain like this , and those guys do a great job with cte. This just simplifies the process.
I agree. Its complicated. I tried leaning it before was not able to get it right. Now that you explained it in detailed, I will be trying it again. Thanks. Thumbs Up
Best interpretation I've seen so far, I'm gonna try it out, couldn't hurt to add to my repertoire
just watched this for a second time. The video should win some kind of award it's so well done. Even if Lil' Chris never becomes a professional player he has a bright future in teaching the game if he wants to do that in my opinion.
One thing about CTE: in my opinion it's a fantastic way to aim shots without spin. I'm visualizing using CTE with spin by changing the aiming point on the object ball and then parallel shifting the cue to the right or left to create an accurate shot with spin. I have not tried it yet though so I could be way off base here. CTE aiming works so there must be a way to incorporate that system of aiming when using spin. I am convinced of that.
Simplest and clearest explanation of CTE I've ever encountered. Thanks.
It works for me but is really feels awkward. I will keep working with it. This is the only teaching of the CTE that I could understand. Thanks Chris.
This is the first "basic" interpretation of the system after studying it for a short period. I have an "intermediate" interpretation here:
ua-cam.com/video/0iJNc64j16Y/v-deo.html
This has some changes from the "basic" interpretation.
This is for players that cannot visualize the aiming spot on the object ball, this would be a guide to learn that.
Best thing that I have been recomemded to watch. I watched a few videos on CTE but ended up more confused ..This simple explain explation has made understanding easy..Legend!!
Wow finally someone explained CTE in English. Hi there bro Lil Chris. Good job buddy. Easy to understand and straight to the point.
