FYI, I just posted a new video that demonstrates several proposition bets possible with a simple frozen-ball setup one ball off the center of the end cushion. Various creative alternative shots are also included. Check it out:


Contents:
0:00 - Intro
0:28 - First Proposition
3:00 - Spin Effects
3:50 - Thin-Hit Advantage
5:34 - Creative Alternatives
---- 8:00 - jump shots
9:52 - Wrap Up

As always, I look forward to your feedback, comments, questions, complaints, and requests.

Enjoy!
 
You can also jack up on those from slightly outside of straight in and hop the carom. I don't know if the hit's the same as the 10x contact but the speed is quite a bit faster.

Maybe I misunderstand your shot, but is it the same as my shot 11 at the 9:05 point?
 
Nope. Set it up the long way with the object ball going for maybe a ball outside the pocket. Cuball shoud be maybe three feet away.Hit it center ball, jacked up maybe less than you're doing but hard; a nice ram, not quite break speed. Use a wall cue if the good stick won't do it. Ball should fly in like it's dead. I discovered it by accident - well plus a natural cave man stroke. You can leave out the pocket and just do long banks. The idea is to hop the tangent line.

I see now. Jumping the CB into the 8 is reducing the amount the 8 goes forward, as compared to a non-airborne full hit at the same angle. I can’t think of a reason to do it that way unless there is another ball in the way preventing the 10-times-fuller aim. But even then, the SIT-assist fuller hit I showed would probably still be a better option.

Something like that; I don't fully understand it. It's setup like the teaser shot at the beginning. You see bangers do the stroke all the time. Slightly elevated, clobbering stuff, balls hopping all over the place. lol...

Anybody else have any other creative shot ideas beyond what I showed starting at the 5:34 point in the video?
