Learning to stop and stun has taken my game to a whole other level. So much better judgment and control on all shots. It truly is a fundamental of the game.

@DrDaveBilliards 2 года назад

The stun shot (stop shot included) is probably the most important shot in pool.

@marcmalmberg7029 2 года назад

I play in bar leagues and find that stun through and stun back are good shots to hit during pre match practice, to get the feel of the cue ball dialed in. A lot of those bar balls are different weights (usually heavier than the object balls) so it's an adjustment when you're used to practicing with normal equipment

@DrDaveBilliards 2 года назад

I like it.

You just keep cranking out these video gems, Dr. Dave! I would dare say that the stun shot and all it's uses and variations (tangent line, stun forward, stun back, etc.) is probably the most important skill to learn. It is the foundation of excellent shooting.

@DrDaveBilliards 2 года назад

Agreed. The 90-degree-rule tangent line is one of the most important principles of pool. For more, see the videos and info under the various topics here: billiards.colostate.edu/faq/cue-ball-control/

Hey Dr. Dave - this is great - but I think there is one small mistake at 5:30 - for a stun-thru at a longer distance - you say to set your tip for a stun shot, and then 'lower' your tip - but I think you meant 'raise' your tip - which you actually do.

There are equations, but they are not simple. See: billiards.colostate.edu/technical_proofs/new/TP_A-19.pdf Now, there is a fairly simple and effective way to aim masse shots. See: billiards.colostate.edu/faq/masse/aiming/ Enjoy!

@permickichristensen 2 месяца назад

Hi Dr. Dave Great video! :) However, I got a question: If stun shot, or just stun, is where the cue ball is purely sliding with no forward or backspin when it hits the object ball how is it possible to stun it forward or backwards? Wouldn't those shots simply just be topspin og backspin shots? Btw, thank you for all the great content, I love your videos :)

@DrDaveBilliards 2 месяца назад

Good point. It isn’t quite stun, but it is very close. stun back = slight draw due to a very small amount of backspin stun forward = slight follow due to a very small amount of topspin

@ricknelson6405 Год назад

With both the tip position and speed of stroke affecting the amount of draw, do you think it would be better to isolate the variables by practicing drills using the same tip position and varying speed, or using the same speed and varying the tip position?

@DrDaveBilliards Год назад

For the types of shots in this video, it is important to vary the tip position. But for draw shot control over a larger distance, varying the speed is a better. See the videos and info here! billiards.colostate.edu/faq/draw/advice-and-drills/

@jasonnieuwenhuis335 2 года назад

I’ve been trying to catch the part where the cueball is still just barely rotating back or when it starts to roll forward. It’s a lot to visualize. It probably is easier to do with a bit faster speed. Thanks.

@DrDaveBilliards 2 года назад

The amount of spin is so little, it is difficult to see. The the motion of the CB reveals all. Also, if the tip is slightly above the stop-shot height, a small amount of topspin at the OB is guaranteed. And if the tip is above the stop-shot height, a small amount of bottom spin at the OB is guaranteed.

Hi Dr Dave, do you have any advice on how to be able to successfully get down low on a cue to play a shot when wearing glasses?

Hi, first of all thanks for all the videos you've made, it's a great help. But I have to admit I'm a little bit confused by terminology. What's the difference between the terms "stun" and "stop"? It seems to me that they can be used interchangeably...? Thank you again 🙂

Stun refers to when the CB is sliding with no top or bottom spin. An angled stun shot sends the CB along the tangent line. A straight stun shot results in a stop shot.

How much (if any) does the type and condition of the felt effect these type shots? I play in APA league and the felt type and condition varies widely from location to location.

@DrDaveBilliards 2 года назад

Cloth makes a big difference. But whatever cloth you play on, you need to be able to develop a feel for stop shot action quickly (ideally during brief practice before matches begin). Then everything works the same.

@sasikanthmalladi4804 2 года назад

Dr.Dave, is there a difference between stun draw and just draw? Look like the stun draw/follow is merely a special case of a draw/follow. Though it does seem like in a real game situation, thinking of a shot as a stun draw/follow rather than mere draw/follow might offer additional control in ensuring we get just the right amount of draw/follow. I've also heard people use the expression "stun through" which seems to be the same as stun follow.

@DrDaveBilliards 2 года назад

The difference is the draw/follow distance and the technique (faster speed with slight tip adjustments from the stop-shot tip height). "stun through" = "stun follow" = "stun run-through" = "very short follow."
