Especially since the angle into the first rail is so sensitive to things like cut angle, shot speed and the OB's distance from the rail, all of which vary with these shots.

It's a crazy, sensitive shot.

BUT once you get ahold of it, it is a *huge* shot to have in your arsenal.

It sure comes up often enough - maybe because I play a lot of 15-ball rotation.

FWIW here's that Sanchez clip I mentioned earlier.

It's not the shot being discussed but it has rendered many a tester to mere duck; for me anyway.

On that positional shot, it's right in the flying a helicopter zone ie. as complex. I think the key to these routes is working the zones separately.

Speed and perfect rolling only.
Topspin only.
Corrective side
Side as propulsion only

The graininess doesn't end obviously, the zones interact and interfere. Fortunately pool sense usually prevails.
