The 90-Minute Plan

Perfect Your Stance0–15 min

Stand 45 degrees to shot line. Bridge hand firm but relaxed. Shooting arm pendulum motion. Aim through cue ball toward object ball

Master the Straight Shot15–35 min

Line up directly behind cue ball. Hit center of cue ball. Follow through smoothly. Practice 20 shots in a row until consistent

Learn the Angle Shot35–55 min

Hit object ball slightly off-center to sink it at an angle. Aim for the contact point, not the pocket. Practice right and left angles

Practice the Bank Shot55–75 min

Bounce cue ball off rail before hitting object ball. Calculate angles using rail geometry. This shot impresses spectators

Master Draw, Follow, and English75–90 min

Draw shot: hit below center, cue ball stops after contact. Follow shot: hit above center, cue ball moves forward. English: spin for angles

Pro Tip

Smooth, controlled strokes are better than power. Aim for precise contact, not luck
