CB location (M3), Target Diamond (I9)
Practice this TML pattern on your table until each one becomes a known and trustworthy shot.
10:30 Analysis
The reverse spin shortens up the angle out of the 1st rail. When it comes into the 2nd rail, the ball is rolling true vertical. It's a nice "W" pattern. Practice this with several positions. It can help you kick with a trusted pattern to small balls.
12:00 Analysis
This is another pattern that can reach for small ball targets (if you understand the pattern). So do a couple shots of this to dial in the shot and get predictable results.
1:30 Analysis
The running English is great when you need to reach the corner pocket. Be careful with this, because it's easy to run into the pocket.
Other Sized Tables
For 8 foot tables, the same type of pattern requires about 1-1/4 tips out from center to get the paths shown. For 7 foot tables, 1-1/2 tip out from center is necessary to follow the pattern. The distances on small tables are less, so when the cue ball travels around in a trapezoid pattern, the rail contacts are more distorted.
