For POOLMAG's Picks of Cool Pool Video Tips
HIT THE ONE FULL
A basic that applies to all 9-Ball break shots is that the one ball has to be hit full in the face, no matter what angle you place the cue ball to use on the approach.
If you shoot from anywhere but center table, your view of the rack may cause you to subtly shift your aim without you even knowing it. To avoid this misleading allusion, picture the one ball as the only ball on the table and imagine you are shooting to hit it as a straight-in shot.
