1000% BEST BANK SHOT VIDEO EVER! That was all true and Very! Well said from the begging to the end. Also when you rolled the object ball down table and banked it that was Incredible! Thank you for taking the time to do requested videos. And it is always smart to play a safty vs a low percentage shot

yes this is very true. better to play safe or play for positon. but when things go off the rail this info is very important and spin will tranfer on banks

I never could comprehend most tutorials on banks (and I’m really good with geometry) for some reason. I’ve always banked intuitively because I can visualize where it needs to go but I can’t do any sort of measuring tricks. Love this video as it spoke directly to me for sure. You have to get that feel for it to be any what consistent at banking and your method works wonders although some people just can’t bank because they can’t visualize it.

I'm an engineer and use feel vs the math. I'm very careful to not add spin, cognizant of speed but the math just doesn't always work.

It's interesting, I just play pool in a messy shop with obstacles around the table, just did today. I'm restoring an old Brunswick in my own shop, now, so should be better. I'm not that good, but (old days) I don't have to put my $.50 in often. I am better at those long corner banks than I am at cross side banks. They seem easier to me. Side pockets in general choke me out a fair bit. I did use one of your methods today for the first time. The counting to five method. Gave me a 4 side, carom to 5 corner, had to convince them it wasn't slop, as we don't play slop, but don't call. Honor system. Thanks. (The 5 was kinda slop, but I did get the 4.)
@devinshannon29957 ай бұрын
I've watched all of the bank shot videos on youtube. They're all helpful in their own way, but I agree 100% that there is no siver bullet. You just have to practice them, start with angle in angle out benchmark speed(different for everyone) then compensate from there to fit the situation. Harder, softer, more angle less angle, spin or no spin and how much. Stroke is key too, but gosh just try not to have to bank in the first place. I hate shaping for a bank, but sometimes, it's all that can be done.

All very good points. Speed also drastically change the the angles so much. All that being said. I really like to use speed and spin to widen the pocket. The more I can flatten the angle out the bigger the pocket plays. I know it sounds silly but sometimes on banks the pocket plays bigger with speed and side spin

@kb31706 ай бұрын
Gotta stick with high percentage shots, no doubt about it. Most players that say they wanna get better simply don't practice patiently. Play better position " ideal angle and ideal distance equals position " know your limitations ... it's often to late for reserve parachutes when upside down and backwards on a shot. Get in line, stay in line. Recovery shots are discovery shots

As a 7 skill level player who plays a lot of bank pool and one pocket 85% of the time I bank intuitively and the other 15% I use diamond system and reference lines especially for multi rail banks and kicks.

Sounds a lot like what I do. Even if you bank intuitively, those diamonds are being used as a reference. Thanks for watching and thanks for your comments.

I first started playing in pool rooms in eastern Kentucky in the early 70s. If ANYONE tried to treat a shot like a geometry problem (joining cues, etc), he would've gotten the CRAP beaten out of him. The old guys (they usually had faded tattoos from WW1/2 & crooked noses) would say, "Do the math in your head, Sonny! Now shoot the &%$# shot!"
