It sounds bad, but it's refreshing to see UA-camrs include their miscues in their videos. This is how ALL of us practice! Interesting to see how you handle your misses and correct your mistakes!
I completely agree! Many of my past videos were live, and I plan to do as many as possible in the future in real time. Splicing shots together and using B roll to cover up mistakes does not paint an accurate picture for those trying to learn. Thanks for watching!
Good video! Your stationary bike looks like the one I have - a Yosuda. I love it. Nothing complicated.....I set the tension and the timer.....start pedaling and jam to rock. I adjust tension as I go along.
How long did it take you to understand CTE PRO ONE fully? I’ve been putting in tons of work. Was there any light bulb moment where you were like oh this is what I was doing wrong. Or did it all kind of fall together like puzzle pieces not really like a all at one thing? Just wondering thanks!
I learned it a while ago (2010 / 2011 timeframe), then went away from it for a while, then learned a few other systems including one that was oddly somewhat similar to the newer teachings from Stan. When I saw Stan was coming out with the book and expanding on the teaching I got back into it again and have been using it since. I'm considered a certified instructor by Stan but frankly I don't fully understand or use disguised pivoting, not sure I could given what I understand about it because of the turned head, eye placement, etc. For me (and talking to Hunter and Tyler and others that use it professionally) I think Pro One is the way to go for competition. Because I've worked with it for a bit for myself I have my own simplified way I tend to approach it, even more so than this video. And it's still a work in progress, I work at getting faster and stronger with the visuals and parallax positioning so I can more seamlessly use it in competition. I don't think most people would even know I'm doing anything other than traditional aiming as I think my preshot routine and stroke process are pretty fluid, no extreme movements or head positioning etc. Feels very natural. I would say to keep working at it, focus on the basic (to learn) and Pro One, watch those specific videos in the video series and re-read those sections in the book. If you have any specific questions feel free to reach out.
The spot shot from that mighty X position (object ball on spot, cue ball on head string 1 diamond from long rail) is a 30 I. What I like to do sometimes is vary the OB or CB position slightly so it's not the same exact shot every time, but you have to be careful because varying the angle or distance a little too much turns the shot into a 45 O or 45 I pretty quickly. I shoot these a little quicker now these days, time with the system improves your recognition of the shot category and direction making it more natural and seamless.
I learned CTE Pro One about 11 years ago and used it for a few years. Then tried and studied some other things, just recently got back into it. The only reason I even mentioned it is because I posted the video on the CTE forum to try to show people how to acquire the videos and move into the shot in some sort of natural rhythm once you get past the initial mechanical learning process
Glad to see a new video scott... looking forward to more in the future

Definitely... everyone will miss the ball... practise is the best place to do it until it becomes second nature👍
Good session- good to see you post again!!

All first shots 15 insides?

How are you liking the cte?
