To make a shot, with a good direction of the played ball on the billiard table, U can apply some parameters before to play the shot
On the website of Laurent GUENET, I find a series of questions/answers usefull to do this
QUESTIONS
A How do we get a natural shot of 45° ?
B For a natural shot how do you adjust the speed of the player ball ?
C For a one cushion natural shot what is the parameter steering the ball 1 ?
D With a direct backspin dropshot, opened angle, what is the parameter steering the ball 1 ?
E With a backspin, acute angle, what is the use of the quantity of ball ?
F With a backspin one cushion what is the use of english ?
G With a backspin, acute angle, what is the parameter influencing the speed of the ball 1 ?
H On a natural follow through what is the parameter steering the ball 1 ?
I - On a one cushion follow through what is the parameter influencing the speed of the ball 1 ?
J On a direct right angle what is the use of the quantity of ball ?
K On the compensation point, one for two, what is the use of english ?
L On the compensation point, one for two, what is the use of the height of attack ?
M On the compensation point, one for two, when the ball 2 is on the good way, the ball 1 get a good way too buy does not come as far as the ball 3, how do you manage to correct the shot ?
N With a piqué, what is the parameter influencing the distance covered by the ball 2 ?
O With a piqué, what parameters are influencing the backspin of the ball 1 ?
P On the backspin, acute angle, what parameters are influencing the distance of the backspin of ball 1 ?
ANSWERS
A - half ball (+ or -) and heading shot in the ball
B - with the quantity of ball
by taking less than half a ball the ball is rolling faster and further and is less deflected on the side
by taking more than half a ball the ball is rolling slower and not as far and is less deflected on the side
C - the english
The amount of english could be 1 to 2,5 to obtain a deflection of 1 to 2,5 spaces between two spots (on the side of the table), this for a one cushion shot in the width.
D - the height of the attack
A drop shot is obtained by taking full ball, it is the height of the attack which is steering the ball 1
E - it manages the direction of ball 1
F - it manages the direction of ball 1
G - the height of the attack
H - the quantity
I - the height of the attack
J - to the speed of ball 1
K - to the speed of ball 1
L - to the direction of ball 1
M - you need to vary the speed of ball 1, therefore you must modify the english and the height of the attack to adjust the direction of ball 1
N - the tilt of the cue
More vertical, less is the distance running by ball 2
Less vertical, more distance runned by ball 2
O - the height of the attack and the strength of the shot
Lowering the attack and/or higher stength is resulting in more backspin for ball 1
P - the height of the attack and the strength
Lowering the attack and/or higher stength is resulting in more backspin for ball 1
