Playing a bank shot is one the most rewarding and efficient ways to utilize your pool cue. This type of play requires that you not only know how you aim and hit the ball accurately, but also the various types of cuts you can make. There are two basic methods to execute a bankshot. One is reverse cutting, the other is cutting across.
This type of shot is usually more complicated than its reverse counterpart and requires more cuts to be made. The "magic spot" technique is the best for bank shots. The cue ball is then rolled through this spot after locating the magic spot. Once the ball has been inserted into the right pocket, the shooter can continue their inning.
The magic spot is a type of pocket that can be used to perform a variety tricks and techniques. It is sometimes called the magic spot, as it is so hard to find that players can't see it until it is right in front of them. A few dots are placed between the pockets of most pool tables. These dots are helpful because they allow you focus on the rail.
The most exciting aspect of a bank shot, is the angle it alters the rail. Because the rails are cushioned, and the cue ball rests on an extended line, this is possible. Many factors affect the angle of a rail. These include the speed and direction that the cueball is traveling. Before you take your first bankshot of the game, be sure to have a good strategy.
Your bank shot's outcome can also be affected by the velocity of the cue ball and size of the object you are aiming at. It is important to remember that a weaker shot will have a smaller rebound and a wider angle. However, it is wise to experiment with your speed as well as your cue to find the best combination cut/rebound for your style.
Finally, you should be aware that you will not be able to hit a bank shot as often as you like. Many of the best players won't leave the table for even the smallest reasons. The best way to increase your chances for winning is to learn how to perform the correct bank shot in a given time frame.
