VLOG# 15: "Splitting the Difference" Aiming System

When he says aim for the center and pivot to 3/4 is he pivoting from the rear or are he saying line up your front hand center of the cue to 3/4 of the object ball front hand or back hand

Thank you. It's awesome!

This system 100% works. I've been using it for about 2 months now, & it's dynamic. Cuts out alot of thinking time & it's simple

This is really stupid advice

Sup, Mike, he helped me wit my stance thanks bro this the video i needed to see thou

This is essentially CTE

what about different angles,,cause he's shooting the same angle all the time

He’s got the eight

I understand the concept but my question is are you pivoting your stick?You don’t do a good of explaining that

Can you show how this might work your banking balls?

Can you show how you pivot?

nothing new learn it 42 years ago old school..

I had the pleasure to play this guy in Dallas Tx,really good play and better instructor.

Does distance matter?

hi! does splitting the difference work on side pocket in an almost straight shot?

Dead on the hole❤

I have been trying this system for english pool where the cue ball is smaller than the object ball. I feel like it works but not consistent. Not saying i am hitting perfectly every time but was wondering if this system suits american pool better? THANKS!

Just 3 days ago I was missing shots that I shouldn't have missed! I couldn't wait to come back and comment on this video. Out of 45 players, I finished 1st in a tournament amongst a field of some really strong players. This video is worth it's weight in gold because I took home a really nice cash prize after practicing and following his instructions. My confidence level soared and I felt like I could almost make any shot on the pool table. It definitely simplifies where to contact your object balls but you still need to practice your positional play and the type of English you need to use!

Thank you for this fantastic instructional video! I walked away from the game 25+ years ago after being ranked just below pro status. I just recently started playing again after all those years and struggled remembering what got me to wear my status use to be. This video simplified a lot of what I forgot and once again, Thank You for this video!!!

This is the best aiming system I have come across. Just watched this video earlier today and then went to play pool with my friends. They were amazed at my sudden improvement. Thanks for sharing this simple system 👍🙏🏼😊

The only problem with this system is you can’t spin the ball to get into position. Putting left or right side on the cue ball will throw the ball more. 9 ball would be difficult due to the positioning for the order of shots.

Brilliant, I will be using this from now on. 👏👏👏

Aiming for the Horizon are you aiming the middle of the cue tip at the edge of the ball, or are you aiming the edge of the tip at the horizon? Can anybody answer this question. Thank you.

Is he aiming for the center while stroking then on the last stroke aiming to the point of contact? I can’t see the pivot action when he about to deliver the cue ball.

My old man taught me this lol 😅 he’s know this for a very long time.

Are you saying you aim the cue ball at 50 then move you tip to aim at 75

HE ALREADY KNOWS THE GAME SO THERE'S NO SPLIT D DIFFERENCE OR HORIZON😮😂😂😭😭👽👀😤

Can I ask..
When says “aiming”,does he mean the tip is aiming towards the object ball?
Great video also.

amazing tips

The best tutorial

This is fractional aiming... 15 degree center to 1/4 ball. 30 degree center to 1/2 ball. 45 degree edge to 1/4 ball. 60 degree edge to 1/8 ball. Would love to see these aiming systems shot from half table.

This system is not accurate enough. There will be shots that require more accuracy when spitting the difference will cause you to miss, instead slight adjustment is needed either to the left or right (to sink the OB ball) when you spit the difference.

Unbelievable😊 thank you sir i will practice this. Because i very confused on ghost ball

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

The shot choices ain't exactly tricky.....

Trying to practice this system, not sure where exactly is 25 and 75 I am finding it hard to see it, can anyone help

Just seems like a good system for making shots but what happens when you use English? Now you're pivoting just to make it, hut what happens with English?

Thank you Mr Mike for sharing.=)

Thank You.

thanx , I needed that

I haven’t tried it but I think that if you use inside English and aim at the 25% of the ball, it will go in

YOU MAKE IT LOOK SOOOOOOO EASY. YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY A SEASONED PLAYER

What's the distance of the bridge when you pivot?

It seems to me that aiming the cue ball at 50 the object ball goes to 12 O'clock. Aiming the cue ball at 25 or 75 the object ball goes to 1 or 11 o'clock. Aiming the cue ball at the horizons the object ball goes to either 9 or 3 o'clock.

Thank you😄👍

horizon is a half ball hit

This aiming system has been around from the 60s

Some cue ball are smaller than object ball can that work too

I adopted this method and improved my game into respectability. Like a charm it works. I’m beating guys regularly that I always lost to. I’m very appreciative.
