Question

How do i power up my shot in pool?

Answer 1

Honestly, most of the time you don't even need power. Actually, it is better if you don't hit the ball hard.  Even when breaking, it's not about power.  It's about the technique, let your arm swing like a pendelum when breaking and if you hit the cue ball the right way with the cue, your break should be very good.  And in most other shots, just a moderate amount of strength is sufficient.

Answer 2

u seem like a bit of a nerd so go to the gym instead of spending time programming software on your computer and by the way ill beat you at pool any day

Answer 3

i agree with johny... you need to put on some flesh i suggest.

Answer 4

Draw the cue back in a straight line through your bridge hand and follow through centre striking.

Answer 5

First of all the people that told you to mucle up are stupid. Ive seen body builds that cant break!

Now then,   on your break try puttting your bridge hand facing down, holding the bank with your fingertips. Place the cue between your knuckles. Pull back and let it rip. To get a fair reach make sure the cue ball is well behind the line so your not reaching too far out.

I agree with the other guy. Billiards is about fines. Blasting an almost pocketed ball having it bounce around and hop out of the pocket, and the cue ball go fling off the table.

The faster the Cue ball goes the more dirt t picks up and the more the dirt effects it. Strong shots wobble more.

Answer 6
