How would you get position on the 9 ball?

Two options.
Stun left, maybe a touch of draw left, to come two rails into the 9. It will go short rail to long rail near the top left corner. Depending on much angle the cue ball may go past the 9 and have to shoot up in to the top right corner. I'd rather hit it softer and take a cut into bottom right corner, but that depends on how fast the cloth is and how springy the rails are.
Option two is to use top inside to bring the cue ball to center of table for a cut on the 9 to bottom right corner as well.
I'm not that good but those seem to be the easiest options. Option 1 is also the most natural path.

LOL what? One take...that was a from a game...I can show you the 8 ball rolling into place. Also, was probably -2 degrees Celsius with about 80% humidity...so table was playing really sluggish.
but thanks...I'll take that as a compliment.

8/9 was wired 5 rails.
That's just a basic positional shot...lol
Your way is one way to do it. I just set it up three times in my garage. Every time I just used draw to drag it over to the other side rail and then straight back across towards the side rail where the 9 ball is. I fell a little short of perfect on the first time, but the other two I fell great. Made the 9 ball all three times.
^^^ What Dean said, or bank the 8 into the 9. Simple shot, either way!
Brags - Basic draw shot... and well executed. Not everyone can actually do it.

Ya you could draw it across off the other rail as well...but if the angle is too straight you end up having to punch it across.
