    If I may give my 2 pennies, there's also the 14.1 "safety break" and the one pocket break that can go in that respective category. Also perhaps the break shot in straight pool or games in order to deal with clusters.

    @waelaltalaa 5 місяців тому +1

    I had a couple shots in mind but you covered those 😊 the 2 I think are worth mentioning is a jump draw with inside spin to hold position instead of going around the table if you have the wrong angle and also if CB and OB are frozen on short rail and 8 ball on the other short rail, especially if the 2 balls are 1 ball apart, there are some special shots there 😉 I won't get into trick shots though lol

  • @Pocketbilliardshots
    @Pocketbilliardshots 5 місяців тому +1

    As someone who also shoots and watches allot of trickshots, I thought I was going to come here with a list of shots that you left out. I was wrong. You covered the hop off the rail. Then I said, but I bet he won’t hop an object ball off the rail. You covered that too! Even had doubts you were going to put the regular object ball jump in the video. That made me try hard to actually come up with a category you left out but I think I may have a few. The shots off the point of the side pocket, although you did do the shots of the corner pocket points. Timing shots where you are making contact with the object ball twice, and those shots where you are straight on and have to hop the cueball up onto the rail and have it fall back down to get all the way up table for position.

    Great summary Dr Dave! I'm curious, which one of these do You consider to be the most difficult? Personally, I think #93 (OB jump) could be the one... Mike Massey whacked me with one of those in a challenge match one time...and went around 3 rails to get shape on the next ball! LOL!!! Thanks for the good work, sir!!! We love it!!!

    • @DrDaveBilliards
      @DrDaveBilliards  4 місяці тому +1

      The one that took the most attempts was the double jump shot, mostly because I had not tried it before, and there are many things that can go wrong (aim, unintentional sidespin, jump height, jump distance, launching balls off the table, etc.). I got the OB jump to work on the 2nd try, but maybe "I got lucky."

    Hey Dr. Dave, hope you're well.

    One I like the wasn’t mentioned. I guess it might be a jump, but when you say your on the short rail straight in elevate the back end of the cue cheat the pocket with spin and the cue ball will jump slightly hit the top side of the rail and travel down to the other end of the table.

  • @AmskepticalTravelers-se8cr
    @AmskepticalTravelers-se8cr 4 місяці тому +1

    it would help greatly if you showed where you are striking the cue ball on every single shot. For example, the first shot you showed under Kick, you were shooting from 30 to 20 to 0. On 61 you shot top spin from 50 to 38 to 0. How did top spin do that? On 68-70 no cue ball. I love this content except for the inconsistencies.

    • @DrDaveBilliards
      @DrDaveBilliards  4 місяці тому +1

      I only show the spin diagrams when the spin is important (or when it is not obvious). Otherwise, assume the CB is rolling with no sidespin. Your numbers are off on shot 60. Concerning 61, there is a system for Z-kicks, but it is not very reliable since everything is so sensitive to speed, spin, and conditions:
      billiards.colostate.edu/faq/bank-kick/z-kick/
      Also, be aware that banking systems require adjustment based on table type and conditions. For example, Diamond brand tables typically bank and kick very short:
      billiards.colostate.edu/faq/bank-kick/Diamond
      And temperature, humidity, and ball cleanliness also play roles:
      billiards.colostate.edu/faq/table/humidity-effects/
      billiards.colostate.edu/faq/ball/cleaning/
      There are also many effects one must be aware of to use systems effectively:

    Few things you could argue to include (or could be argued were included under a broader definition)
    1. The counter-safety kick and stick (freq. used right after you've been safed, and cannot see the object ball)
    2. The half or quarter ball jump.
    3. The jump to change cue ball effective tangent line (for shape) after pocketing a ball that you didn't need to jump to see the potting angle. (e.g. the famous efren reyes shot)
    4. Half-table and full-table equal distance separation safety.
    5. Full table spin-modulated distance safety using running and attenuating spin (e.g. cue ball has to travel more or object ball has to travel more)
    6. Force-stun. (I know stun was covered, but I tend to think of this as a different shot, e.g. very small angle, huge power stun shot to move long distance along tangent line)
