How Do You Perform An Impressive Trick Pool Shot?
Many people enjoy playing pool, but few can do an impressive trick. Pool trick shots are like magic–they look more difficult than they really are. The eye of the observer is usually on the ball being hit and the magic that occurs with a trick shot happens with the cue ball. Select a pool trick shot like the Joplin’s Dream Shot. Drop 4 balls on the table. The 1 and 2 ball need to be a ball width from the cushion. Direct the 2 ball so that it lines up with the point of the side pocket. Take the 2 and 3 balls and align their centers to the short rail just outside the corner pocket. Check to see if the 3 and 4 balls have their centers aligned to the short rail point of the corner pocket. Relax, since there is leeway with the placement of all four balls. Push the cue ball toward the centerline of the table about a half a diamond away from the side pocket. Strike the cue ball so that it rolls straight into the 3 ball.
