what about coming across the face of the ob, hitting the long rail with the cb and kicking the ball toward your hole? might call it a double kiss shot. also depends on how tight the table is, if the table is real tight just make sure you stick the cb and just get the ball outa there however you're comfortable. I don't like going behind the OB I seem to scratch too much on that shot
i agree safer is better, but sometimes you wanna try something different.
I find that works for me, but I believe the CB action is more a result of the full-ball hit, rather than any spin though.won't kicking behind the OB with a little low left freeze the cb there, sending the ball up table. parking the cb on the rail is always a good idea

This is true, but the spin coming off of the rail allows for the correct hit on the ball by holding the cueball coming off the rail. If you hit it with R english it would lengthen off the cushion and most likely cause an overhit resulting in a scratch.
These type of one pocket shots have got me in trouble,especially when the cb is more up table.Is the best shot to come in from behind the ball and try to stick the cb and send the ob up table to your side.Thanks for any advice.
Ya think that is prefered to an uptable? I think there is little difference between the 2 shots, if executed properly...but I guess putting OB by the your side ,instead of uptable on your side is 'better'.Hit the cue-ball at 5 o'clock...long rail first.
Your job is to 'stick whitey' and sent the object ball towards
the side pocket where the cue-ball was.
It's a 'must learn' shot at one-hole....
...if you don't master it, the guy who's taking your cash probably has.
