This will take a couple practice shots to get the feel for it. Bank the 9 ball straight back to the other short rail. Put extreme right on the cue ball and after it hits the 9 ball the cue ball will go off of the short rail and over the left long rail and the right spin will bring the cue ball...
My custom John Davis full splice made by Alex Brick is wrap less by preference. I don't have a slip stroke and do not see a need. Plus, why hide beautiful wood workmanship.
Eight ball is an excellent game but most folks don't how complicated it really is until they play some One Pocket. This will bring ones skill set up. Just a pool life tip...Don't gamble with old men.
When a ball sits on the lip, I count to 5 out loud for all to hear. Most times folks ask me why. I show them the rule that few know. Just trying to spread the word.
