In this video I explain what is happening to the cue-ball when we play with side-spin. I try to cover exactly how the balls behave and how we can then adjust our aiming so that we make the pot!

That is the better video about side I've ever seem. Congratulation Steve.

@bosondas5374 5 лет назад

This is the first time I’ve seen a video of playing a shot with side and how it affects as to weather the object ball goes down or not. It has been explained extremely clearly and I actually understand what Steve is saying. Thank You so much Steve for your incredible instructional videos.

I've always only compensated for the deflection but never seriously considered the arc. this explains a lot... thank you.

This is, by far, the best video I’ve seen (and I have watched a lot of videos!) on the effects of side spin when pocketing the object ball, and controlling the after-shot position of the cue ball. The use of dynamic diagraming, combined with on-screen text really clarifies the entire shot process. Beautiful job!

@TomCoppell 5 лет назад

Excellent explanation of the use of side and how certain degrees of power and extreme side can throw the white differently. I remember my coach Neil Johnson telling me experiment with different degrees of side with various amounts of power and also short distance and long distance. I’m struggling at the minute with long distance safety and shots to nothing using side and plain ball. My eyesight is either going or my setup I.e. technique / sighting has changed as I took 2 months away from the game. I’m planning to visit my coach again in the coming months to revise my setup. You’re a great coach I always watch your videos as I like your interactive, visual and explanatory nature of how you put together your videos. It gives the viewer a feel of actually being there with you by way of you including the power meter and various camera angles, etc. Brilliant coach. I look forward to the upcoming vids 😀💪

I'm an old American pool player who is fascinated with the game of snooker and the skills I see. You have my respect. I have never used side spin unless it was top or screw side spin and then, only a tip either way from center. I have only been concerned for what happens to the object ball when using spin. I call it throwing the object ball. I never had lessons but I did learn tips from good pool players that were older than me. Thanks for a great video. You are a talented teacher.

Very well done Barton, I eventually have understood how to aim with side spin and I am going to apply these principles at the pool table. I think there is no difference between snooker and pool talking about how to aim with side spin

@khaliqwijdan 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for this. Can you also please make a video about trying to pot a ball from the cushion (double)? It's tips, tricks, and how to measure angles correctly from different positions, like when its right against the cushion, or its in the middle of the table. And also trying the double towards the middle or corner pockets as well! Cheers!

@patpugliese2163 4 года назад

Great explanation of spin. Watched many other videos of this , none come close to yours. I have been breaking with a lot of spin, the same principle for hitting the head ball. I am not getting a good hit on head ball because my English is pushing me off a direct hit. Will have to compensate for English to get the direct hit on breaks. Thanks

@haigthompson7738 5 лет назад

Thank you so much Steve for this tutorial, this is the best video I have seen on side spin top coach. Can you do a video on the mental side of game, including technique, game plan and any other info you think is important for the game Thanks bro?

@Knightlore10 4 года назад

Nigel Bond gave me an excellent tip about using 'helping side'. In cases where you have too much angle on say the black to hold for the next red, use helping side (running side) to hit the black thick and still make the pot to hold position. Brilliant tip that has helped me to continue breaks.

@vmax4steve524 4 года назад

You don't hit the black thick, you aim the black thick because the cue ball has deflected, swerved a tad and therefore has approached the black from a different line which helps to hold it. It's very slight this deflection and swerve, but it's crucial to offset your aiming to allow for it.

@lloydshanahan555 5 лет назад

@YKChau888 Год назад

Thank you, sir, very clear explanation, I've noticed the palm position of some people playing side is the same as normal, just move the cue left/right by using the palm as a pivot, but what I learned is moving the whole palm to left/right (parallel with the normal shot), could you please tell me what is the difference between these?

@tommyr1216 2 года назад

I have recently got a new cue that is heavy and the prominent grain has helped me with my overall game. I don’t hit the balls any where near as hard as I used to do and I have realised that it’s my delivery and follow through that I have been working on with your help, great job pal and keep up the good work

@0000oooo100 5 лет назад

Thanks for this! I've just spent an hour trying to pot a straight blue with a lots of side. They were flying in and the white spent serious time spinning after. A little compensation in the aim and a good strike, cannot believe how much I've learned about my cue today, it has a lot less throw than I thought. My cue's 16 1/2 ounces, would you say that a lighter cue has less throw?

@007nilesha 2 года назад

Thank you sir

@coolmind2476 4 года назад

Very good video. The sidespin also affects the object ball which would be perfect to cover as well in another video.

@nikoladragutinovich6821 3 года назад

Great video, but! From my experience, the cue ball always flicks the object ball slightly on its way to the pocket, depending on the side spin of the cue ball. For example, if you are playing the shot with lefthand side, the cue ball is gonna flick the object ball a bit to the right on its way to the pocket, so thats one more thing to keep in mind, but very difficult to judge sometimes :)

@danielmurzellotheunknownma7481 4 года назад

Thanks for this video🎥.. Because whenever I try the side spin I find it difficult to pot the ball. Thanks once again. Warm regards, The UnknownManCub👍 😎

@rickywong4054 5 лет назад

The arc effect will depend on the nap of the cloth too. When playing from baulk end to black end, the cue ball will drift back to its original path, but if you are playing against the nap from black end to baulk end, the cue ball will drift further from the original path.

@lordomacron3719 Год назад

and this is why when i play a new table i spend a few mins just hitting the white up and down and acrros the table with various spin and strength to get a feel for the speed and run of a table. as every table is different if only slightly.

@marklavellemusic 4 месяца назад

Greta video mate very clear… I have a question if someone can help me….even after accounting for deflection the side I put on the que ball generates opposite swerve on the object ball I tested it a few times and it seems the ball will always kick the opposite side, is this a case of deflection that I can’t see or does the rotation of the cue call cause the opposite reaction to the object ball ??

@kingbeastgamer_2279 3 года назад

Thank you

@jontip Год назад

Thanks

@rickywong4054 5 лет назад

You forgot to mention using left hand side will kick the object ball to the right, and right hand side will kick the object ball to the left. For some side spin shot where deflection is not a lot , you can still aim without compensation due to this effect.

@hxduck 5 лет назад

He explains that within 2 minutes of the video starting

@rickywong4054 5 лет назад

hxduck I’m not talking about deflection or curve.

@crazyrichdolls3860 4 года назад

This is definitely the third factor to compensate when using side. Like you said when side is applied, the friction of the cue ball will "kick" the object ball to the opposite side, I would say up to 5° which makes some impossible thin cuts possible. Some players say the side spin of the cue ball "transfer" to the object ball and I think the term "transfer" is misleading, it merely "kick" the object ball by a few degrees.

@rickywong4054 4 года назад

@@crazyrichdolls3860 the side spin does transfer to the object ball, it is used when you are trying to pot a ball that is sticking to the cushion, the very small transfered spin will grasp the cushion a little bit to stick to the cushion.

@crazyrichdolls3860 4 года назад

@@rickywong4054 I've experimented a lot with this but I really don't feel the transfer, I've seen slow motion videos on youtube which also doesn't show the object ball with transferred side spin. Do you have any good videos which show otherwise?
