It was formulated by English scientist/mathematician Thomas Wright (<---- probably a snooker player himself - now I know why they shoot so straight ) in 1742, partially based on his long-time studies of pythagorean mathematical theorems...the pic that I have included here is a partial template of his aiming system.

PS, I've been looking at the cue that the angel on the top left is holding - looks like maybe a plain jane made of claro walnut and maple...:heh

PPS, And also take note...the cue shaft on the top left has a pro taper, whilst the shaft on the right has a conical/3cushion players taper...

PPPS, I just posted this thread over at az.b to mess with them...let's see if any of the aiming system fanatics pm me for more info on this system...:lol
