Banana shots

Postby Badsnookerplayer

I have been playing snooker a long time now.

I am not a bad player but by no means great.

The thing is I am amazed that you can still keep learning things. My favourite shots are banana shots like Judd plays and by tinkering with my technique I have finally learnt to play them well. You have to hit the cue ball low with side and push the cue through unnaturally far,

Today I cleared the colours and finished with a black to the top left pocket and 'banana'd' the cue ball into the yellow pocket.

Lost seven points but I am still smiling thinking about that shot.

Probably the favourite shot I have ever played.

Get to your club Islanders (while it is still there) and play banana shots.

Glad to hear u finally managed to make them, BSP. :hatoff:
Without trying to be arrogant, I've always found banana shot easy to make, especially with running side. They're tricky when u have to put check side though.
