You realize that all of those are required for different circumstances, right?

There are no magic tricks, or special sauce.

There is only proper alignment, proper cue-ing for what you need the cue ball to do, and a smooth stroke on that line, contacting the proper target on the cue ball at the proper speed.

Pool is not difficult. Its measure of success is largely a matter of who can repeat those steps correctly the highest number of times consecutively.

Bruce Lee wrote in the Tao of Jeet Kun Do,
"Before I learned martial arts, a punch was just a punch and a kick was just a kick. When I studied martial arts, a punch was no longer just a punch and a kick was no longer just a kick. Now I understand martial arts, and a punch is just a punch and a kick is just a kick."

When you eliminate any mysticism from the equation, and focus on what needs to take place for the shot to be successful, your game will benefit. :thumbup:

Whatever he just said AND a high-ball. Follow tends to make thinner cuts better. Tends to track better since its rolling not skidding.
