A quick pool lesson
Short video of Mark Wilson, who knows more about pool than most. When he talks of "squirt", he means what many call deflection....the amount a cue ball will travel off line when the ball is "spun" by hitting it off center. Yes, even the carbon fiber shaft cues, touted as "low deflection" still deflect. To make things even more complicated, no two cues deflect the same. "spin", or english, is used mainly to control the cue ball after the shot.
Okay, here we go...
