The easy way to explain ghost ball aiming:

1) find the exact point you want your object ball to hit (in this case, the very center of the pocket)

2) draw an imaginary line from that point through the center of the object ball

3) extend that line to a point 1/2 ball past the edge of the object ball

4) aim the cue ball so it rolls over that point

5) stay down on your shot, and watch where the object ball goes. Adjust your aim accordingly.

Use center ball for now - deal with english later.

Wow...I've been playing for many years and I've never understood this simple concept. I thought you were being redundant at first, but you've explained this extremely well. Thank you for sharing your expertise.

This is the first time I heard of taking the kick (carry) into account when making a shot. I always understood this effect is very hard to predict (people actually refer to this as a BAD or HEAVY contact) From what I've understood the chances of it happening are increased with the action that is put on the cueball (including rolling). A simple stun shot would then give you the least chance of having a kick. This is why you'll see snooker players for example prefer a stun run through to a roll-in

@forcefollow I had a older guy who a 7 on apa and he told me that you use the light reflected on the ball to use that as your point of contact. Do you agree with that?

Thanks for your time and the video's
