You don't have to be a professional pool player to succeed. Choosing the right angle and a suitable grip are important to achieving the proper results. There are many ways you can achieve the right spin with a cue ball. If you don't have a lot of practice, it can be difficult to know which angle is best for you. There are tips that will make it easier to control your ball.

First, you need to aim for a specific portion of the pocket. This will help control the speed and tangent line of your cueball. You also need to know the correct stroke. Some players like to hit the ball below the center to make it slide. Although this may not work for everyone, it can give you more power as well as accuracy.

Important is the use of a level cuestick. Also, ensure that you have enough chalk for the shot. Check the chalk for deep grooves. This will enable you to put more balls in your pocket.

To reach a pocket faster, you will need to angle your hand correctly. The object ball should be placed between the head rail and the cue. When you're executing stop shots, it is important to keep your cue level. Keeping the cue level will also help you to avoid making a shot that curves around other balls. This is a common mistake for many players.


To hit the cueball with topspin, aim for the ball just above its center. This is according to experts the best way of putting the most spin on the cue balls. However, you should be careful when using this stroke, as it is more complicated than it looks. You can lose half of the energy in the cueball if your stroke is wrong.

A curved stroke is another good tip when hitting the cueball. This will allow you to curve your cue ball around obstacles. You can also practice this stroke by adjusting the angle of your cue sticks. The best curved shot will also require you to raise the cue stick. This will assist you in bending the cue ball the best way possible. Before you start playing, practice the curve stroke several times. This will help you to learn it and to improve your game.

Practice the same stroke on each side of the shot to maximize your curve. You may also want to use a higher target to get more spin. In addition, you may want to try to hit the ball on the right side of the cue ball. It will increase your enjoyment and help you improve your game.
