Well, the only thing you have to do is to make sure the cue-ball has no
rotation on impact. The effect depends on three things:

1. Distance to object ball
2. Strength of shot
3. Heigth of the tip on impact

There are nearly infinite combinations of strength and where you hit the cue-
ball for any distance between cue and object balls.

The further away the object ball, the lower OR harder you have to hit the
cue-ball. If you do hit it lower and harder, you'll get screw. Whereas if you
hit it too high OR too soft, you'll get follow. After all it's just a matter of
practise.
