(CBC) Cue Ball Control (full table patterns) - Group 7, Set 5
This is today's set of Cue Ball Cheats. These practice setups (and others in the book and blog) help you learn HOW to apply an exact speed and spin. That precision is how to get perfect shape on the second ball - and how to string a run together. For these layouts here are the Cheats for this post:
- Cheat: 1:00, (1/2 ball hit), Medium 2 speed.
10:00, (1/2 ball hit), Soft 3 speed. - Cheat: 6:00, (3/4 ball hit), Medium 1 speed.
11:30, (1/2 ball hit), Soft 3 speed. - Cheat: 12:00, (1/2 ball hit), Soft 1 speed.
(If you can catch 3/4 of the 1 ball, use 6:00 to slide the cue ball down.)

(S&D) Safety & Defense - Cue Ball Management - Side Spin into the Cushion
(This is today's bit of advice from the book Safety Toolbox.)
Work on coming to the cushion with various top and draw side spins and speeds after contacting the object ball. Start with slower speeds and work your way up, watching what happens. It is necessary to know the results of each variation. Different distances out from center add more cue ball spin and exaggerate the out angles even more. Continue reading
