This is a great video on a topic that is one of the most important in my opinion, but that hardly gets mentioned with the frequency that it deserves. Most pool channels just talk about the game as if this doesn't exist and a lot of them talk about aiming systems or ghost ball aiming like it is full proof.

Awesome video, and perfect timing! Its something I've been thinking a lot about a lot more since I've been playing more. One video I'd love to see is how to adjust your play depending on table. That might be hard to make though, as you might need different tables with different cloth. I really have to power through shots on my table at home to get proper position. Then when I went to a pool hall playing on a brand new diamond, it was like on ice! And the rails had seemingly no loss of speed as balls bounced off them. We played for 2 hours and I still couldn't get fully adjust my game and get the hang of it.

Hi Dr. Dave! Great video. I just had a quick (physics) question: is swerve solely a product of the cue not being completely level (i.e. the downward force creates a swerve effect)? Or is the actual spin of the ball creating the serve as the ball travels forward? Also, with CF shafts, I know you mention one potential drawback is that the tip can contact twice and cause excess squirt, is there anything one can do to avoid that? Is it just a matter of learning your cue and how much spin you can put on a shot? Thank you!

Swerve is caused by a combination of cue elevation and sidespin. For more info, see: billiards.colostate.edu/faq/swerve/ With a very stiff shaft, a miscue can occur with a good hit at very large tip offset (close to the miscue limit), but it doesn't happen with typical modern CF equipment.

Dave I'm not sure I see any spin being imparted to the object ball. Sure the stripe is wobbling because it's no longer exactly vertical after the object ball is thrown, but if it were genuinely spinning wouldn't the stripe be rotating only in one direction, not wobbling back and forth?

To me the least amount of throw occurs when there is both Gearing and draw used to form a "spin vector" at the OB strike point, which can then be implemented at a slower overall speed or faster and get the same result. Watch out for the scratch, however, when using gearing English and speedier shots.

With "gearing outside spin," there is absolutely no throw. Backspin is not required.

For more info, see: billiards.colostate.edu/faq/sidespin/drag/

It all has to do with the moment of impact as to the reason a hard shot with some draw does not flare... is because the impact is hard enough to rebound through the elastic spheres before the lack of left or right spin can transfer well as CIT. Also, the wobble on that throw shot is not merely the ball-to-ball grip during the equatorial impact, but the ball on the cloth coefficient completes the jolt that sends it wobbling as there is a momentary skid at that tangency as well though not as great an influence.

Pros have a good intuitive sense for most pool physics stuff; although, even pros fail to properly compensate their aim for throw at times. I see it all the time.

The closer to stun, the greater the throw.

90% of pool is 1/2 mental. (Borrowed from Yogi Berra.)

Did you mean: "The game is 90% mental. The other half is physical." FYI, many quotes like this that apply to pool can be found here: billiards.colostate.edu/maxims/ Enjoy!

Basically cut it thinner for slow speeds, hit it thicker if you gonna bang. That’s all you need to know if you’re under 600 fargo which you are.

Please someone explain overcut throw aim in relation to his initial ghost ball marker setup. I’ve seen other videos say to do this but they never really tell you how. This is definitely a source of my misses right now I’d definitely love to start workshopping immensely.

You're welcome. I aim to swerve (and to throw). :)

@@DrDaveBilliards I was imitating a diagram you have where the OB is Center table facing to a side pocket and a CB is about 15 degrees out exaggerating speed from slow to fast to get the feel then adding suggested spin. Do you have drills I could purchase or you recommend to work on thin/thick anti swerving shots? I’m also learning I hate big pockets!
