When I was a kid (9/10) we had an old table in the spare room, it was pushed into a corner and was half covered in cassette tapes, an old stereo and other junk, so there was only half a table (4 pockets free) and 2 free sides to walk around. When I was bored I would go in and mess about, after a few months I fell in love with the game and with my limited playing surface straight and angled pots to the corner was not challenging anymore so I started practising corner and middle pocket doubles all day long (uk banks) its a shot I have always loved and never feared. 33 years later now and it is interesting to have my own shot theories confirmed here and even learn terminology (collision induced spin)........when I used to try and explain it to my friends and family it was difficult to put in words so the only spin I got was their eyes rolling as they yawned at me. Great video from a true great, hope to see you back in Mosconi action soon
This is fantastic! I've never understood why I keep missing this type of shot, even after diligently studying other videos on banking. Simply applying cue ball side spin to offset the induced spin on the object ball now seems so obvious. I also highly recommend Neils's other lessons. His one on how to pocket balls like a professional immediately improved my long potting near the rail to near 100% success.
I always applied some light spin when banking because I would make them way more often, but I never knew why it worked. I always thought I just couldn't aim bank shots. Thank you Niels!!!
Nails you're not only a great player but you're also a great teacher period been playing 50 plus years and still learn a few tricks from you. Doing a great job man, keep it up! It's really just a shame that pool players don't get paid like golfers and tennis players. I just love the game so much it occupies my mind most of the time and I'm 70 years old. Still looking for improvement in areas where I can.
ALL SHOTS should have some outside cue ball spin to avoid "sticking together" and "throwing" off the shot. Forgot actual terms but think it is called throw and dead ball hit. Anyway, when you change the angles and speed, cue ball spin needs to change too. Its all in the practice, practice and more practice.
Nice explanation that makes it so much easier to understand. I had been told to cut it more for off angle, but this is not consistent. Your way much better.
Chicago player here. Love that you mention Freddie! Respect from Redshoes Billiards that was his home. I've been working there for 5 years. Bert also comes up there as well. Respect sir!
Thanks!! Yes gotta mention where the info actually comes from and he had that great term for it 😄👍🏼 still wanna come to red shoes one day!! To work on my banks more
He also has some really good advice on hand position for a draw stroke follow stroke and bank stroke I know after I started watching him and burnt my game changed it’s nice to see that there’s some good information starting to get out
Thanks Andy! Yes he has great content on his banking DVD’s also👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Anything in your own game you’re struggling with? How about the mental side, also good or extra training? 💪🏼
I haven’t picked my cue since I got the virus in March of last year I’ve just been focusing on trying to get my health back. I can tell you what I struggle with the years if you think it’s good for the other people viewing. Breathing techniques Self hypnosis Eye alignment Backhand grip versatility
After all that then maybe explain to the people about backhanded English and how every shaft has a different deflection rate And how they can change quickly with different cues by adjusting their bridge distance between their hand and the ball
I learn way betterby showing me and that made a lot sense. The best explanation I've heard! Thank you so much! BTW... you've always been my favorite European player! You're mental game and professional demeanor is great!
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen So I'm a 460 fargo so there is a lot I can improve. But its the mental aspect I struggle with. Any videos or advice on that?
Yep I understand. Have you seen my mental courses at terminator-college.com ? If you have any questions or inquiries just shoot me a text in my Facebook or Instagram and I’m glad to assist you! All the best!!
Just Wow! I have been playing pool seriously for 10 years as an amateur. I have seen alot of videos about banking, but they never explain it the way u do. U made it simple and easy to understand . Thanks man from nyc
If I may add, the speed in which you hit the bank is very important as well. The harder the object ball hits the rail, the more it compresses that rail upon impact. More compression will shorten the angle of the bank shot. The opposite is also true. A very slow speed will compress the rail less and will widen the bank angle. You'll notice that Mr. Feijen hit most of his banks here at a similar speed to consistently compress the rail the same way each shot, simplifying aiming.
Great video but I have two questions. 1) When you say “a little bit of spin” how much do you mean? An 1/8 tip, a 1/4 tip? 2) Does the amount of spin you put on the cue ball depend on the cut angle and/or distance from the pocket? If so, how much do you make that adjustment? Great work on all your videos!
NIELS I. BEEN WATCHING SOME OF YOUR VIDEOS AND MY GAME HAS GONE UP 80% THANK YOU VERY MUCH ,YOUR VIDEOS IS SO UNDERSTANDING TO WATCH,, GREAT WORK MY FRIEND.
Niels, your lessons have made me a skill level 6 in APA. Can’t wait until your lessons move me to a 7. Thank you terminator and keep up the awesome work.
I'm a beginner and I used to come short on these shots. Sooo I started to always cut it more than I usually thought was correct. It worked and now I know why. Yeah it's not the way taught in this video but as a beginner I try not to use side spin because I don't know how to handle it yet. I play around with it when I'm snookered or the object ball is literally not missable. But that's it.
Thanks for the advice. Definitely gonna work on this shot. I am a decent banker and have wondered why I ha e missed these shots. Now I know why it only worked when I needed position to that side and it worked.
Wow, after watching lots youtube vidoes, I've never heard of collision induced spin until now. When most coaches talk about the bank shots missing short, they usually just say it's due to the object ball compressing the cushion as it rebounds, e.g. due to the power. I thought the reason I was missing wide cut bank shots was cause of throw, but it makes a lot more sense now that it's due to spin off the cushion.
Neils!!! I love these videos and they are very beneficial for me. Very comforting and feels like an actual class. Thank you so much for doing these!!!!
Good instruction, although I feel dumb, because I figured that the spin thing was happening, but just tried to compensate for that by where I hit the ball instead of thinking to compensate it by adding spin to the cue ball. Doh!
Great video Niels. I enjoyed. But how do you compensate if for example a certain positional play sort of forces you to play with a different amount of spin? How do you know how much to compensate your aim?
No offense to Dr Dave, but this is a GREAT description of CID. I never really understood it until now. Also, I never account for it in bank shots... until now. My percentage went WAY up. Thanks. To explain something is to know it, to explain it simply is to teach it.
This helped my banking tremendously!! I used it several times when play on my league night. I have learned so much from your videos, thanks for the videos, please keep up the great work. Its nice that a pro of your caliber would share all these tips.
Hello sir! I'm really impressed by these useful drills. Hope to see you explaining about CTE aiming system and how to quanify the aiming spot between 15-30 and 30-45. That kind of angle makes me headache. Thank you!
Here’s a funny antidote: I’ve been training Center Ball a lot lately because I’ve always used English on most every shot. Recently my banks have went to the toilet... thank you Neils for video, I’ll be more mindful of when to use spin.
I use English alsmoat on every shot except straight in, frozen on the rail, chinese snooker over another ball. Is asked Efren once many years ago and he also said the same thing 👍🏼
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen I’m an American artisan baker, my best friend lives in Holland, if you ever are in the Pacific North West, USA you are welcome in my house Niels. I even have a pool table. Of course I’m a SVB fan but loved watching you beat his butt on the tour. When you’re in the zone you absolutely attack the table. Love it! Be well Sir.
Depending on position for the next ball I like over aiming the back and use inside to straighten it back out. Either way works but our masters where your next ball is to determine what way you take the shot
Neils, also when cutting across that cross side, you can aim the same and shoot the ball at a slightly slower speed and it will open up toward the center of the pocket too!
Nice Niels. Good to see your still shooting strong. I might also add to your viewers the speed of the shot factors into how much collision induced throw you get as well. Faster speed will transfer less spin and throw as well. But faster speeds will shorten the bank somewhat because of the pushing deeper into the cushion. Its all about that Feel. cheers.
Hi Tim! Yes good points! I’ll probably do another bank video in the near future with more advanced tips like those 😄 How is your own training during COVID times? Anything you’re struggling with?
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen consistency lol. Maybe I should start doing more drills. Those solo practices you do and keep doing till you finish are impressive. I think more time is needed than I have to get where I would like to be. I have a regular job. Kid. Hobbies lol.
Yep prioritizing is huge these days cause we are all so busy, all of us. Did you see the goal setting course at terminator-college.com ? That can help you out a ton with setting good goals for yourself and your practice 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Hey Terminator! You are giving me the secret sauce to viscerate people on the pool table. I put your technique to use right away cause i got a pool table at my place, and voila!I am making bank shots after bank shots like nothing. How do u compensate for collision induce throw on non bank shots like cut shots? Thanks again. I automatically subscribe after the first video I saw.
Thanks Jean! On cut shots there's still a bit of throw like a cross over one pocket bank. In that case you can over cut it a hair and let the friction bring it back into line :)
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen I love watching your videos and learn a great deal. I think it would be great if you included those occasional misses in your videos though. I understand they're short instructional videos, but it's good mentally for amateurs to see the pros miss challenging shots occasionally.
I have the same problem with bank shots, so I avoid them like the plague. Pun intended. 😂 I need to watch the video you mentioned at the beginning, but the concept you described here may actually help me. Thanks for the hard work.
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen Spent about 90 minutes last night working on banks. The first hour was ball in hand natural angle banks. Moved into the advanced tip for the last 30 minutes. This really helped. Going to continue tonight, and video is so I can watch it later. Thank you again. Good luck this weekend!! Shoot well!!
Great video! The same result can be achieved, with over cutting the ball a little bit, instead of using outside spin? Also Eddie Taylor suggested, that most bank shoots should be over cut firm with inside spin to stiff the angle, whats your opinion on that?
Hello. Will it work by go thinner on the objektball, instead of using side spin? Or will it just give it more spin to the objekt ball by going thinner? -sorry about my english, i still hope you understand and give me en answer. 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
So when the bank is not natural, like way past the natural bank shot. Then essentially you could use spin on the opposite side of the cue ball to help it come back a little to go in?
This video is a great continuation to the previous one you posted on straight in bank shots. Here you use side spin to compensate for collision induced spin. Does the bottom/top spin on the cueball also transfer to the object ball and influence the rebound of the bank or it is a minor issue?
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen Thank you for the answer. It is an unbelievable opportunity that I can ask famous Niels Feijen about pool. Your youtube channel is unique!
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen When it comes to 8 ball, I quite often run out of position and struggle with controlling the speed of the cueball. I have already watched your last video on 3 main mistakes, guilty in commiting all three of them)
That depends, on the distance that the object ball is from the cushion that it is being banked off of. If the OB is on, or very near, the cushion, then any top or bottom spin that is transferred to it by the CB has little time to effect the angle. However, if the OB is further from the cushion, then top spin on the CB will transfer slight bottom spin to the OB, causing the OB effectively to be sliding into the cushion, rather than to be rolling, and thereby it will shorten, or narrow, the rebound angle slightly. Because, if the OB is some distance from the cushion, then it will have time for that transferred spin from the CB to effect the OB's roll. And, by using draw on the CB, it will then transfer top to the OB, and causing more of a naturally rolling OB. Where as, a naturally rolling OB will cause the angle to widen off the cushion, somewhat, as opposed to how a stationary or a sliding OB would. The effect is normally slight, however, and any amount of side spin, ( English) on the CB, or any difference in the speed of the hit, will have a more dramatic effect on the angle of the bank shot, than would any effect that follow or draw will have. But, the effect may still be enough to cause a missed bank shot, so it should be calculated in the aiming process, especially when the OB being banked is more than a few inches from the cushion.
Another BIG tip: (not really sure but) When I shoot bank shots with a lot of speed, it requires me to aim at a different spot on the rail compared to when I shoot them slower. The speed either has an effect on the contact spin, or maybe, the speed affects how much friction occurs when the ball makes contact with the rail, causing it to go off course. I am not sure which one is correct, but I always adjust my aim when I shoot bank shots faster or slower, and, before watching this video I did not think about the spin that happens when the cue ball makes contact with the object ball when shooting bank shots. If someone can confirm my theory about more friction occurring when the object ball hits the rail at a faster speed, that would be great.
I've actually designed a whole aiming system around this concept. In my new cross corner video I actually get into mathematical detail of how wide this speed window is from all over the table. The effect you're calling friction I discussing my five levels of speed video. Fast speed is shortening the angle with real compression and slow speed is actually producing a gentle Masse effect as the top spin transfers to a slight side spin which opens the rebound angle.
Looks like you are hitting cue ball right side but looks like it's rotating left im confused but I understand once cue ball makes contact the object ball will spin right
My friend, thanks for the nice words!!! 😊👏 I offer Player Reviews, it works very well and people are highly satisfied: - You tape yourself, for example playing 'the ghost' or a match. Minimum 30 min. duration. - Then upload it to UA-cam and send me the link. I will make a full review, ball-by-ball, and give you inputs on your technique, patterns, choices, stroke etc. and tips with things to work on! Interested? Send me a PM and we can talk further 👍😀
Also...notice that Neil’s STAYS DOWN on his shot til the ball falls. I see people jump up on bank shots more than any other shot. That’s cause they don’t have confidence in the first place, so this video will help give them the confidence to relax, and stay down.

Good instruction, although I feel dumb, because I figured that the spin thing was happening, but just tried to compensate for that by where I hit the ball instead of thinking to compensate it by adding spin to the cue ball. Doh!
You can also compensate with hitting a bit thinner so not stupid at all. But adding that touch of outside spin is the easiest fix 👍🏼😄
Great advice
Thanks John!!😄😄
Great video Niels. I enjoyed. But how do you compensate if for example a certain positional play sort of forces you to play with a different amount of spin? How do you know how much to compensate your aim?
It’s mostly by feel and experience so set up the same shot a bunch of times depending on the position and feel the difference you need to make 👍🏼👍🏼😄

Thanks Jean! On cut shots there's still a bit of throw like a cross over one pocket bank. In that case you can over cut it a hair and let the friction bring it back into line :)
I gotta to re watch this beautiful magic 🎱
Thanks! Can you practice yourself? 👍🏼💪🏼
Great tips!
Wow!!! Amazing bank drills. ❤❤❤❤
Hold up! Am I trippin? or did he miss and set up the shot again for the video. 6:38.
Either way hell of a run!
Haha yes there was one miss in that little run 😄😄👍🏼
That’s just a test to see who’s watching the whole thing! ;) GREAT SHOOTING! Especially that 10 ball!!
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen I love watching your videos and learn a great deal. I think it would be great if you included those occasional misses in your videos though. I understand they're short instructional videos, but it's good mentally for amateurs to see the pros miss challenging shots occasionally.
I have the same problem with bank shots, so I avoid them like the plague. Pun intended. 😂 I need to watch the video you mentioned at the beginning, but the concept you described here may actually help me. Thanks for the hard work.
You got it James! Work on it💪🏼💪🏼😄
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen Spent about 90 minutes last night working on banks. The first hour was ball in hand natural angle banks. Moved into the advanced tip for the last 30 minutes. This really helped. Going to continue tonight, and video is so I can watch it later. Thank you again. Good luck this weekend!! Shoot well!!
Great video! The same result can be achieved, with over cutting the ball a little bit, instead of using outside spin?
Also Eddie Taylor suggested, that most bank shoots should be over cut firm with inside spin to stiff the angle, whats your opinion on that?
Yes both of those principles can be effective however the inside spin is very deflection sensitive in my humble opinion
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen Thank you very much for the information. Keep up the good work!
Yup! Learned this decades ago from an old master.
Awesome!👍🏼😄
Can you make a video on banking balls across the face of the ball?
Thanks, Niels, for all of your videos. My game is definitely better for the Terminator Tips!
Any multi-rail tips?
Tnx Norman!! Will do kicking series soon with also multi rails🙏🏻😄
Me: Think I'm the ****ing man when I make one bank shot
Niels: Runs the table with nothing but banks
Hahahaha!! Don’t forget I took a couple of tries to get a nice run going so I miss plenty of balls 🤷♂️😄👍🏼
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen Ha, well you're still the man! Love your videos, thanks for posting them!
You are so correct, what a smart man.
Street smart 😜👍🏼😄
Thanks!!
Wowww just simply amazing. I really learned a lot from this legend 💪🏻🎱
Tnx Martin! Appreciate it 👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏻
Hello my friend. I have question about how much spin like quarter tip half tip one tip .Please let me know
1-2 tips. It’s not written in stone. Just a bit of spin not a super lot👍🏼👍🏼
Excellent lesson!
So as a newer player. Is a little bit of spin half a cue tip? 1 cue tip? Etc? Also, I still need to then adjust for the added English or no?
banking with the beard is a great book!
Yes good info! 😄👍🏼
6:00 Talk about wiping your feet.....this ball took a shower :) Nice video!
Excelente gracias
omg, it is unbelievable how good the top pros are! There is no way I can be this good, not even if I played 8 hours a day.
learned something today thank you
Hello.
Will it work by go thinner on the objektball, instead of using side spin?
Or will it just give it more spin to the objekt ball by going thinner?
-sorry about my english, i still hope you understand and give me en answer.
🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
Yes thinner and no spin also gets the job done but for position it’s better to use the system with a bit of spin 👍🏼👍🏼😄
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen thanks alot for your answer 😇😄
Awesome tips. The side spin on the banks is a huge nugget. #gamechanger
Tnx buddy!!👊🏼👊🏼😄👍🏼
Niels how do you post the video without being blocked and I dont see what is the music what is the name of the track ?
For this piece of a track I threw together a few loops 😄 I actually do it in 10 min because I’ve made so many full tracks 😄👍🏼🔥🎹😎
So when the bank is not natural, like way past the natural bank shot. Then essentially you could use spin on the opposite side of the cue ball to help it come back a little to go in?
Same side spin as the side you got the object ball. Helping English 😄👍🏼
This video is a great continuation to the previous one you posted on straight in bank shots. Here you use side spin to compensate for collision induced spin. Does the bottom/top spin on the cueball also transfer to the object ball and influence the rebound of the bank or it is a minor issue?
Thanks! Not a lot. But speed makes a bigger difference. Soft hit then they come wide, harder hit and they come shorter.
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen Thank you for the answer. It is an unbelievable opportunity that I can ask famous Niels Feijen about pool. Your youtube channel is unique!
Thanks a lot! Is there anything else you’re struggling with in your game?
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen When it comes to 8 ball, I quite often run out of position and struggle with controlling the speed of the cueball. I have already watched your last video on 3 main mistakes, guilty in commiting all three of them)
That depends, on the distance that the object ball is from the cushion that it is being banked off of. If the OB is on, or very near, the cushion, then any top or bottom spin that is transferred to it by the CB has little time to effect the angle. However, if the OB is further from the cushion, then top spin on the CB will transfer slight bottom spin to the OB, causing the OB effectively to be sliding into the cushion, rather than to be rolling, and thereby it will shorten, or narrow, the rebound angle slightly. Because, if the OB is some distance from the cushion, then it will have time for that transferred spin from the CB to effect the OB's roll. And, by using draw on the CB, it will then transfer top to the OB, and causing more of a naturally rolling OB. Where as, a naturally rolling OB will cause the angle to widen off the cushion, somewhat, as opposed to how a stationary or a sliding OB would. The effect is normally slight, however, and any amount of side spin, ( English) on the CB, or any difference in the speed of the hit, will have a more dramatic effect on the angle of the bank shot, than would any effect that follow or draw will have. But, the effect may still be enough to cause a missed bank shot, so it should be calculated in the aiming process, especially when the OB being banked is more than a few inches from the cushion.
Another BIG tip: (not really sure but) When I shoot bank shots with a lot of speed, it requires me to aim at a different spot on the rail compared to when I shoot them slower. The speed either has an effect on the contact spin, or maybe, the speed affects how much friction occurs when the ball makes contact with the rail, causing it to go off course. I am not sure which one is correct, but I always adjust my aim when I shoot bank shots faster or slower, and, before watching this video I did not think about the spin that happens when the cue ball makes contact with the object ball when shooting bank shots.
If someone can confirm my theory about more friction occurring when the object ball hits the rail at a faster speed, that would be great.
I don’t think it’s the friction but the rails. Same on a kick shot. Hit it hard and it comes out shorter. Hit it soft and and comes wider 👍🏼👍🏼😄
@@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen Awesome, thanks.
You got it!
I've actually designed a whole aiming system around this concept. In my new cross corner video I actually get into mathematical detail of how wide this speed window is from all over the table. The effect you're calling friction I discussing my five levels of speed video. Fast speed is shortening the angle with real compression and slow speed is actually producing a gentle Masse effect as the top spin transfers to a slight side spin which opens the rebound angle.
Nice Video
Greetings from Swiss 👍
Thank you Arijano!!
U should sell some merch Terminator, I always buy merchandise from youtubers as support, shirts, tools and such
Will keep it in mind! 👍🏼😄🔥
Looks like you are hitting cue ball right side but looks like it's rotating left im confused but I understand once cue ball makes contact the object ball will spin right
Merry Christmas Neils
If terminator college had an actual establishment. I wud pay good money to get taught by the terminator ! Ur videos are game changers!
Thank you!
My friend, thanks for the nice words!!! 😊👏
I offer Player Reviews, it works very well and people are highly satisfied:
- You tape yourself, for example playing 'the ghost' or a match. Minimum 30 min. duration.
- Then upload it to UA-cam and send me the link.
I will make a full review, ball-by-ball, and give you inputs on your technique, patterns, choices, stroke etc. and tips with things to work on!
Interested? Send me a PM and we can talk further 👍😀
Much appreciated. You’re pretty good at this game lol😂😂
Also...notice that Neil’s STAYS DOWN on his shot til the ball falls. I see people jump up on bank shots more than any other shot. That’s cause they don’t have confidence in the first place, so this video will help give them the confidence to relax, and stay down.
Thanks a lot Ray! Good advice! But who is Neil's :) :)
