In this demonstration of whether side spin affects the cue ball path (OR NOT!), we cover:
- Top priority – check where the cue ball hit the pocket
- Where do you think the cue ball will go with top spin and R4?
- It is very tough to pot centre pocket with side spin – which is my excuse in advance for not doing so!
- Where most players think the cue ball will go when this shot is played • The three reasons the cue ball does not deflect from the object ball as much as most players think
- The lesson from this video has 50% importance weighting in positional play knowledge:
- You can NOT deviate the cue ball from it’s path with side spin
- If you have a straight pot just assume you are out of position and can only go backwards and forwards.
