Ball address
Description
Addressing the cue ball is the process of positioning your body in the proper place before stepping into the shot. Working this into your routine as something you do consistenly and the same is very important, as it gives the rest of your routine the same basis to start from.
Actions
- Find the line of the shot.
- This may entail walking and standing behind the line from the object ball to the pocket.
- Stand behind the cue ball. This is the best place to start. You can see the line of the shot and the angle of the cue ball to the object ball.
Shot Objective
The objective of a pool shot is to strike the cue ball in a very specific spot. How could you expect to accurately strike the spot you intend consistently if you don't consistently approach and respect each shot the same?
