1. Draw Shoot

The first basic blow method is a drawshot. The drag shot method is tried by hitting the white ball slightly at the bottom of the midpoint, to be precise, hitting at the 6 o'clock point.

The purpose of this method is that the ball will run backwards after being attacked by the target ball. This will take place if the target ball is hit it is located parallel. If the position is not aligned, the angle of the ball's reflection will be wider.

This blow must be understood by beginners and continues to be repeated so that this method is perfect.

The next bottom blow method is a stop shot. The stick hitting method in this way is tried right in the middle of a white ball or a cue ball.
