This system is based on this reference shot. The idea is... you're making a half ball hit every time, on an object ball that is roughly near the middle of the table.
Your goal is to send the cue ball in the direction shown, into the corner. It's hard to get the cue ball to this corner with any other type of shot.
If the cue ball starts closer to the yellow, you need to adjust. First you measure the offset, then use the same half ball hit, but with some english to get it back onto a track towards the corner.
The shot is speed sensitive. It might be similar to the speed of the break shot.
