Recurring shot scenario

[Billy Jackets]

This is for the non great players You have the bottom right pocket, there are a few good shots , but there is one that if you practice , can lead to big runs and becomes very high percentage. Do you see it? https://pad.chalkysticks.com/d09dc.png
Its not the 12 bank into the 2 off the 15 , I didn't realise that was there, until I looked again

14 ball cross-corner with the cueball going 3 rails around. Or, banking the 3ball 2 rails then it clips the bottom of the 2 and goes in your hole. Or, 13ball 3 rails with the cueball also going 3 rails around for shape and safe. I've shot each of those 3 shots countless times over the last 50+ years.

All 3 excellent shots, which one do you think average players miss completely, and in my mind , if you understand the mechanics of the shot, it is usually the safest to play.

Bank the 14 into the 2 ball, and then Jojo can go 4 rails around for shape on the 4 ball.

bank the 3 ball 2 rails into the 2....2 off the 15 to pocket. CB freezes right there where the 3 was for shape if u make the 2 and blocks him from seeing it if you dont.

Bank the 12 into the 2 with a tip of right stun forward to long and down to bottom rail.

It is a mistake to post a link to a third-party site for an image. There are lots of reasons why. Here is the image....

Do you mean "shoot the 12 into the 2"? I can't see any bank to get the 12 to hit the 2 ball.

 

[Hardmix]

Bob I meant bank the 12 into the 2 that is next to the 15 ball not the “Other“ 2 that is on the rail.

As I see the shot you have to hit the 14 nearly full as the 15 blocks a cut. The cue ball will be going very slowly towards the 15. Additional energy will be lost since the 15 is shot mostly into the 2 ball. I don't think the 15 has a chance to reach the pocket. Of course it depends on the setup, but the diagram shown is not promising. Move the 14 an inch up-table and it has a chance.

I like the kick bank on the 2 a lot actually and playing for straight in on the 13

Ah.... Two twos is too many twos.

I guess you are shooting the cue ball to the foot rail between the 4 and 3 to hit the upper 2 ball on the long rail. Is that right?

to be clear two two's is too many twos

yes would have to to take it to the table but seems you can get there

I think the shot is possible, but I would not trust myself to hit the right side of the 2A ball, let alone thin enough for the bank. Lots of ways to sell out.
