I have seen this shot made and not sure how to do it. There are 2 balls spotted and you have the cue ball in the kitchen. The player shoots the front ball into there hole. Anyone tell me how to do this.
thanks will

hit it good. ;)

oh yeah set the rock on oppsite side you want the head ball to go into and draw the shit out of it and hit it hard, the balls have to be frozen if they arnt iy wont come close to going in. Its not a real hard shot if your a decent player and used to the table, its possible to get to much on it and the Ob will hit the foot rail.
 
The shot can be hit from either side of the object ball. Both shots should be basic knowledge for a one pocket player. Go to onepocket.org and they will help.

We can show the answer here too guys. Set up the cueball (1/2 diamond off of dead center of the head string) like this and draw straight back off of the head ball. Try to make the cueball run back into your tip. This shot can be made at different angles but it is much harder.

Here is the other way to shoot the shot, not my preference but seems to be the more popular method in Kansas City. Use inside middle english. Good Luck.

I prefer this way, alot of the time the second ball will come up short on the twice cross corner

If you would like to practice this shot, try placing the cue ball just off the headspot to one side of it or the other, only a ball's width, opposite the side you would like to pocket the ball in.

Shoot the shot with smooth firm draw and try to draw the cue ball right back onto the cushion, on the long rail, at the headstring, by the rail diamond, same side of the headstring that you placed the cue ball. I found very good results this way and you are playing to a good safety spot on the table usually.
