Hitting the Cue Ball Center: How to Play Pool for Beginners

Video Transcript

On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Richard Buccola and I am going to introduce you to Pool 101. All right, I’m back and first thing I want to talk about is just 90 percent or 80 percent I would say of your shots are going to be dead center; dead center of the ball, if you want to get behind me. Now here is your cue ball. This is dead center on your ball and that is where you want to hit it. What you want to do is have your bridge like we talked about before and now I can do it in slow motion; that’s your bridge over the stick. You want to actually get right down on the ball and hit it, dead center. To execute a shot, I’m going to set up an easy shot, if you hit this ball over here; it’s going to go that way. If you hit it over here, it’s going to go that way. So go in the pocket you just want to set up a straight line. I’m going to set it up easy and dead center. You would do that and make your shot. That is a dead center hitting the cue ball.
