Nice info on the 9 on the spot break! It's in season right now with all the tourneys ;) You should do a breaking series! 9 ball, 1 on the spot, template, no template, 10 ball and 8 ball variants. If I had to guess, most of your viewers are amateurs and league players that play most 9 ball games 1 on the spot with a triangle rack OR 8 ball on a barbox (at least in the USA). Any tips for those players on those breaks/table conditions? As usual, your content is practical and informative. Thanks!

Or is that a bad idea?

No always a good idea to see what’s working for him/her. If you have that same break in your arsenal than good plan to try it out! 😄👍🏼

Good video. In your opinion when breaking from the box with the 9 on the spot do you think it’s a better strategy to do the cut break & always try to make the 1 ball in the side or to break to get position on the 1 ball down table? Thanks

It would be interesting if you gave this same lesson/demonstration using a wood rack.

Thanks for the tips, was hoping you would give a bit more info on the power break technique as well, i slowed the video down and it looks like you stand up before shooting, can you maybe give few tips on increasing the break power with keeping accuracy reasonable enough? Thanks

Ok so just got down watching numerous match highlights from the recent 2024 premier tourney. 9 ball on the spot & breaking inside the box. Everyone and I mean everyone is breaking too left ish or top right ish and all using the cut break with cue to side rail. That apparently must be the best odds. Oh and they are doing alternate break. I been playing 9 on spot and doing the cut break in the box. It’s obvious less balls go in on the break so less runouts a plus alternate break stopping multiple runouts. Back and forth action and only race to 5. Makes sense on several reasons why they have implemented these new rules & format. Long gone are the days of running 3, 4, 5+ racks in a row from the old school 9 ball days. Cheers.

That's totally correct. Because the body raises up, for some too much, then they compensate with aiming lower to prevent the cue ball from getting topspin.

Did you see the cue ball diagrams for reference?

So my take on this is that all of your breaks are cut breaks going into the rail that is at the same side from where you're breaking.... One is medium, one is firm, one is trying to over-cut the ball, so all are kinda the same but speed is difference?

Another question here buddy. You're breaking great but I think it has to do with it being your own table. I can imagine you going to the next tournament and doing exactly that but it never works that way right? Lets assume that is the case and your break in the tournament is completely different. What would you do then? Thats the real question. (even with changing sides, it still is far different results from what you see in your own table) -- cause that happened to me.
