Thank you for taking the time to show WHERE you hit the cue ball, and WHERE you hit the contact ball and the slow motion reaction is so helpful. Such a great instructor!
Up to 20 years ago, I played a lot of pro-level tournaments. What I like about this video, is that you are demonstrating shots that can actually be used in real games. Some other videos show trick shots that are very high risk and should never be used in real games (only exhibitions).
Holy cow, just found your channel this morning. What can I say the shots are awesome. The graphics you use in your diagrams are phenomenal the voice overs. Really professional stuff man. I'm subbing for sure. Nice work.
You have an excellent teaching style with clear description and demonstrations! It is obvious that you love what you are doing and I sincerely appreciate your passion for sharing what you know! Keep up the great work!
Been using the rail kick jump for years; very handy. What I didn't know was that you could lessen the elevation if you stroke it a little harder. I've been drastically elevating and sometimes don't get the desired result. I'll give your technique a try, thanks!
I love how you showed that 7 ball shot against the rail...especially how you explained where to hit the 7 and what spin to put on the cue...you should incorporate more of that into your videos
I already knew about the rail jump shot and used it a few times successfully. The first where the balls are frozen is the most useful one I think, but when ever I try to cheat the pocket on my local tables with anything more than soft speed the ball doesn't go in. I guess I will have to try to play around with that a bit more to see how much room the pockets give. The clear explanation surely helps. As of the last one, I don't think that It is the best solution for the problem if the rest of the table is clear. Also I feel quite comfortable with swerve shots but the shot still looks hard to execute. Looking forward to getting back to the tables and testing these shots out as soon as the situation calms down a bit. All the best and keep up the good work!
Appreciate your educating us on real shots that will improve our game instead of trick shots. Could you explain how the diamonds are used on the table?
The two balls frozen to the short rail is my fav. Used to practice on a converted snooker table with super tight pockets, thats the hardest shot in the video by far.
The last shot of the opposite direction is the best shot I’ve ever seen and never ever thought was a possibility to play or even make, WOW, the first shot is for beginners I have to say, and most of us all know how to play that shot when playing pool on a rail to rail shot position shot and make it to go across the table, but again the last shot u performed was just a eye opener to me and most of us playing! The jump shot making the ball is extremely hard to make, my option, but over all u are a great player to watch and I have u on my daily watch list to see the newest shots u can do ..... Please show us how to do these Shots if u can..... Show is it teach us how to play diamond shots , that’s where the strategy cokes Into play at , that’s what we need to study and master God bless ... and a great videos
Woo hoo! My question got featured! :D Thanks for another terrific video, Sharivari. I tried your drill several times and think I was successful once. That said I tried a simulated 9-ball "Ghost" tournament game with APA scoring this past weekend. I am a Skill Level 6 in 9 ball (SL 4 in 8). I was able to reach 46 points in only 11 innings, and had two back-to-back break and runs! I want to thank you for your videos. They are definitely helping my game!
Sure did like your comments this was the first time I’ve listened, funny thing about it is I thought you were a computer talking but in fact it’s your true voice Ha thanks again
Very good video. I love the rail jump shot though I've never seen it done and I've been playing pool since I was 10. Very cool! I'm a pretty good jump shot maker, it has won me many bar bets :)
陳亭瑋 It’s a terrible shot.. With the 9ball in the middle of the back rail, frozen, playing position to the side pocket on the 7 will leave you broke for as long as you keep doing it.. Play the 7 in a corner pocket, ANY CORNER POCKET, and you will have a path to the 9 ball that’s relatively easy.. Playing position in the side pocket when it’s not hanging will keep you broke, playing rotation.. Especially when your next shot is near a rail, or even close to the same side pocket you’re currently shooting at..
The Billiard Corner Laugh all you like, I’m correct.. Side pockets are traps in rotation pool.. Whereas, if you play to corner pockets, you’re never on the wrong side of the ball.. That particular layout, with the 7 at least a foot away from the side, and the 9 ball in the middle of the short rail, frozen, I’d NEVER play position for the side pocket, unless I could stop my ball and have the perfect angle on the 7..
@@dalebiggs434 Yes, but given the exact situation sometimes one is definitely preferable to the other, either way, depending on layout and your individual skill. The masse is often not that tough to just get a hit, but sometimes it 'leaves' badly, if you know what I mean.
I saw a match where the announcers called that shot as the right one where Mika Immonen was saftied such, and all three balls were short rail frozen (or close) with object almost in pocket and a blocker (IIRC). chose a different approach that netted him a missed ball scratch. He tried the shoot away clear with masse back off the rail and missed the object ball completely on the curve one way or the other. I practice that shot as one of my silly fun practice shots and it is not easy to get right consistently, the masse I mean. I have played that rail jump shot, but off an object ball and off the table, UNintentionally. :-/ One of those things where I think, how many times does it take for you to learn not to DO THAT, each time it happens.
The best way to get joy out of that shot is, when you have someone behind you annoying you. you take a hard cut shot but you accidentally smack him him in the head. The guy said I would be mad at you but no one can do that on purpose. The guy never stood behind me shooting again.
All great shots to know and your execution of them was excellent. The last shot where you use masse was especially interesting to me. I knew the other two shots, not that one. However given the exact situation I do know a shot that does the exact same thing. Whichever way you want the cue ball to go use spin on that side of the cue ball. Then jump into the object ball just a bit and it will either come off the object ball or hit the rail and move in the desired direction. This shot is dangerous unless practiced until competent at it due to the fact that either the cue ball or object ball will jump off the table quite often until you master it. Another top notch video here.
Great skills and knowledge executed again, exemplifies the hard work and practise you put in to attain the level you are at. I play English 8-Ball on 7 x 4 Supreme tables with much tighter pockets but the information you pass on is still transferable and very useful (just needs a little adapting sometimes but the principles are the same). Great work again bud!
I just put a 9ft pool table in my house or they’re setting it up and changing the felt. I was a snooker player as a young guy but I hope I can become good at pool. Thanks for your vids.
I don't know about the plausibility of a jump kick shot off the rail. I've certainly never tried it however maybe it could be useful once in a million years. Beautiful "warp" shot concept btw
One thing that actually struck me the most on this video was the mechanics of the shot @ 1:59, if I could just learn to stay THAT freakin' still, my game would probably improve 25% right there. And believe me, I've put major time into working that...and still that early jump up just keeps creeping back in. Sometimes it gets so bad I've had people tell me I was halfway to the next shot before the rock left the cue. An exaggeration, but unfortunately sometimes not that great of one. 3:54, the cue ball doesn't want to go on the tangent line first, it WILL go on the tangent line first, every single time you hit an object ball, then it does other things (unless it was sliding). That's a nice shot to have in the 'kit' BTW, I suspect it takes a bit of practice to get any consistency with. Obviously the better plan is to get on the right side of the shot in the first place, but that is not always an option, or you are handed the shot by your opponent, or just just roll slightly short or long. Nice vid.
Great Video and I've Subscribed! I've got a Shot that I've played successful several times to raves and beer-buying! Play the cue ball along the long rail to the straight ahead tip of the bottom rail pocket, bouncing it off the pocket's adjacent tip and the cue ball goes straight along the short rail, making a 90 degrees turn in effect and pocketing an object ball into the opposite short rial pocket. Get the Picture??👍✌️🇬🇾
Great Video, struggled with the Rail JUMP Shot didn't know what I was doing wrong and now have a better understanding on the other Shots! Thanks to you💪🏽🎱
Usually when I'm straight in on the short rail and I have to get down table I jump into the ball and let the cue ball roll off the top of the rail. Of course you go off the table doing that sometimes
Excellent, as always. That warp shot reminded me that I wanted to hear your thoughts on how to aim and consistently execute a masse shot. I looked through your existing stuff, but I couldn't find anything on it. I've seen other people's takes on it, but I think you'd do a much better job.

I make shots that leave my friends speechless all the time; they can’t talk when they’re rolling on the floor holding their guts laughing.
So cool. My best "jump shot is a draw shot hit too low."
Thank you for taking the time to show WHERE you hit the cue ball, and WHERE you hit the contact ball and the slow motion reaction is so helpful. Such a great instructor!
The first shot...I’ll be practicing that one as it comes up often. The slow motion video really helps me see the physics in each shot!
*ALL YOUR TIPS ARE EQUALLY IMPORTANT AND APPRECIATED!!* *WE MAY NEED TO WATCH THESE SEVERAL TIMES IN PRACTICE BEFORE GETTING IT DOWN!!*

Love the jump rail bank shot!

You can also not jump ball and use lot of English and come off rail. Just depends on the position of balls and cue ball.

Brady Barnard hard to choose, and have made a few dollars off of bar room drunks who have tried to make a ball where both balls are frozen to the rail

Absolutely warp shot... Greeting from indonesia ...
I have used all three of these in games. My favorite is the Off the Rail Jump. In my opinion, it surprises my opponent the most.

I would recommend the three cushion solution for the third shot. It has much more safety-margin.
Sure, it would be crazy do to something else. But I wanted to show a special shot in this video :)

I like all 3 but the jump shot is my favorite 👍
Once again great video.
the rail kick shot i first came across in a venom trick shot video. I performed that one successfully but only once as it was a long rail kick shot.
The best was the Warp shot
