91 degree cut (KICK)

Impossible? It sure looks like it would be impossible, but clearly, it can be done. And if I can do it, you can too...

El Maestro, in the white shirt, demonstrates first, then me in the dark shirt.

Lots of low left english, lots of follow through, aim to hit the cushion first (so, it's really a KICK, not a cut), but close to the object ball, so that the cue ball cuts the object ball in from behind.

A spectacular shot.

Video shot on location at Fast Mikie's Fun House in Del Mar, CA.

Predator 314 series 2, with a Moori medium tip.

That is actually not a cut... It's a kick shot. You are hitting the rail fist, inside spin then hits object ball.

Nice shot none the less.

[fastmikie69]

yes, correct, it is a kick, not a cut.

Sweeeeeet! Nice table. Looks like mine. Hey some idiot gyped mentioned MAMOUTH pockets. This dude knows shit about Brunswick Gold Crown tables.

The corner pockets are on the low end of the tolerance.

Seeing as he's playing with left side and hitting the cueball low, of course the cue ball is going to swerve (on a half-decent cloth).

Wow, I honestly had no idea that this was considered skilled. I'm 13 (also have a broken wrist and still play) and my ability to do shots like this saves me on the 8 ball all the time. So when I first saw this I thought "What does he mean, impossible?" but now I get it.

kick shot. and helps when you have MAMMOTH pockets.
