Bank Shots

Bank Shots can be very intimidating to an amateur. These shots are difficult to a normal person, but not difficult for the Super Human beings formally known as the 5th and 6th back row. This is because we know our geometry. The thing you must remember as you are going to set up for your bank shot, is that the angle of incidence is ALWAYS equal to the angle of reflection. This means that the angle that the cue ball hits the bank at, will be the angle it bounces off at and continues in the other direction. We tried to demonstrate this in our diagram below.
