Longer than I can remember, folks have made analogies comparing pool shooting to golf, or even shooting a rifle.
But more and more, my personal experience is showing me that pool is more like basketball, in that the target is fixed and, from various locations around the court (table), if you adjust your foot and handwork just so, you get the ball to the target.
There are no systems on God's good green Simonis covered Earth that will help you. Only to the extent of what you can consistently produce and control with your body to put you in position to successfully propel the ball towards the target and control the CB AND your personal library of shots and angles and spins and speeds and swerves and squirt effects.
You see the shot, you shoot the shot. Confident in the knowledge that if you have setup correctly, you will have placed all your body parts in positions in space that will make the CB travel to the spot on the OB that will pocket it and produce the position you desire.
