need help with 5 shots. |
|
there are 5 shots I am having a very difficult time making that I would like to include in my next video. Was wondering if you guys could help me out a bit. I think I might be aiming wrong, or just hitting the cb wrong, or even stroking it wrong.
1. circular draw : cb bounces off rail and continues down table or goes straight across the table.
2. power draw: 3 and cb frozen to short rail, cue goes 3 rails and drops 9. cb come straight back, or straight down table to other end.
3. circular follow shot: almost made it, cb comes off rail curves toward side pocket or hits short rail at other end, not curving enough and if I get the correct spin I always hit the blocking ball you are supposed to go around.
4. draw shot that races to the side pocket: object ball always beats cb to pocket.
5. masse passing lane: cb never curves enough and if it does, obj ball beats it to the pocket.

1. Shoot a fuller shot into the object ball, harder, and with more draw. Try using so much draw that you miscue, then use a little less draw.
2. You're not hitting this with enough spin. Try using a whip draw by putting the object ball 2mm from the cue ball.
3. Use a little left to get it away from blocker ball. If you're not getting the action, shoot a fuller hit on the first ball.
4. Put cue ball 2mm from object ball and in line with the far pocket point. Aim tip at 1.5 tips of draw at the 3rd diamond and use a short punch stroke, medium soft. Easy shot.
5. Don't shoot so far out on the cue ball. Clean your cue ball.
-yow!

thank you freemedic for this topic ......and thanks to yow for the hints .
without any doubt this r the most hard trockshots in the master program ....
1. with lots of practise i mastered this shot .TIM CHINs site helped me to find out my fault . i was setting it up wrong .try his pics.
2.make the CB close and in my case im loosing speed so i use more english and less draw coz my table supports alot of english from the cushions .
3.almost 90% hit on the Ob and lots of TOP SPIN
4.never even tried.
5,DONT ASK ME ....I HATE THIS ONE ... I NEVER MADE IT GRRRRRRRRR
