1. Walk over to the rail, and stand on the imaginary line going from the ballyou're trying to make, to the pocket. That's the dotted line shown here. Soyou're facing the 2 ball, on its path to the pocket. Imagine a ghost balltouching the 2, and exactly on this line. 2. Try to visualize where this imaginary ball would be resting on the table, shown here as afaint red dot in the middle of the ghost ball. You want to aim the cue ball, at this imaginary spot. 3. To help see that spot, you can rest the tip of your stick on the table, and let it stay there for a secondwhile you walk back towards your shooting position (behind the cue ball). Use any little marks you seeon the table, to help keep the spot locked in your mind. There might be a little scuff mark, a stain, a bitof chalk, whatever. Anything to help fix that spot in your vision, so that when you walk back over to thecue ball, you don't lose track of it. Then aim as carefully as you can at this spot, and shoot without anyspin on the cue ball. 4. Because of friction between the balls, the shot will undercut a small amount. To compensate for this, it may help to imagine your line towards the outeredge of the pocket, not the exact middle of the pocket. Most people tend to imagine the ghost ball too close to the object ball. Rest your tip a little furtherfrom the ball than you think.
