I don,t have a physics degree or a protractor all I have is my eyes and my gut.
We always understand best when we also use our head and don't rely only on eyes and guts. Eyes and guts often don't give us the answers, or worse yet, sometimes give us the wrong answers.
I am not trying to analyze anything all I was trying to say is that I understand basic cueball reaction and english but some people seem to do things with the cueball that I thought were impossible...
If you understood basic cue ball/object ball reaction and english you wouldn't be wondering how people were doing things you thought were impossible.
And as many people mentioned, if you would just explain an example to us of a shot type you are talking about we would be glad to explain to you how it was done and why it works that way.
...but that being said I have won a lot of money over the years from people who analyze everything. I shoot with my eyes and my guts.
So you start off trying to ask how certain things are done, and when nobody can understand exactly what you are asking about suddenly you don't care how it is done any more and imply that anything beyond what your "guts" can tell you is unnecessary (even though your "guts" are obviously inadequate since you believe shots that are in fact possible are impossible, and have no idea how certain shots are played). You either forgot to take the meds today, or that sudden change in outlook was mighty convenient.
You didn't start this thread just to inform us that you don't understand how some shots are done. You wanted answers. So just give an example of a shot we can understand, and we will be glad to provide those answers.
