Break
- Thread starter Bigshot
- Start date
I just watched a 2015 AccuStats match between Appleton and VanBoening. They both were making the second ball in the side pocket consistently. Can’t say their break speed was less than 20 but it wasn’t excessive.

It is but you better hit the rack FLUSH to do it. Speed is always nice but square hit is just as if not more important.
Buy Joe Tuckers "Racking Secrets", he has 2 discs out. Joe will teach you how to read the rack, and use that knowledge to your advantage.
For a pro, yes. Watch Corey Deuel in TAR 1 vs Shane. He was soft breaking 10 ball and had a pretty good percentage of making one ball (but couldn't get out enough to beat Shane...).
Shane on the other hand was smashing them, and routinely making 3-4 balls.
<===== Not a pro, can't make a ball in 9 ball

Yes, it can be done. This video demonstrates the break on a 7 footer but will work on 9 footers.

Sending you a pm and added you to my contacts so you could reply, I thought you were already on the list.
Don't bother.
Awwwwwww when you change your diaper, maybe you will reply.

I think there may have been a post from that cat's parent on here informing readers he was a person who gets ultra deep into things and to be aware of it. It is obviously a part of him that is known to them.
He's clearly been bitten by the same damn bug that bit us.

I think that answers my earlier question.
Thanks, this is a very good video. It’s gonna take some practice to get that smooth rhythm but it did give great info.
Of course, hitting at a medium speed is actually the ideal speed to make a ball in 10 ball. Even at a crappy level I play at with no real practice on the break I can make or come close to making the second row of balls in the side most breaks. A lot of the breaks would actually pocket a ball but the corner balls go 2 rails and knock the ball away from the pocket.
