Breakshot practice

The only thing is, no matter how tight the side pocket is, there should be a spot where you can put the cue ball and hit whatever part of the rack you want, at least with the break ball in that position. If the break ball were even with the side pocket then your options with the cue ball are more limited, IMO.

It is ball in hand in the kitchen. Try it. You might be surprised.
 
On this table it is hard to pocket the ball in the near(left) side pocket and go directly into the stack. Shoot int the right side pocket and you cant go directly into the stack either. Set it up and experiment.

There was no way to see where the ball was from the picture. I gave my answer based on the ball being close to the line between the side pockets.

Also, I thought it was ball in hand anywhere on the table. Like you'd do in a practice session, or to illustrate the position you would play for.

Guilty as vharged. I need to be clearer.
