hi. firstly i would like to say, that this is purely what i will do, which i dont know if it is the right way or the wrong one. have seen a thread on this being discussed before, but cant remember which one.

When i intend to put side spin on the ball, i will aim the ball as i would always. and then, depending on which side i intend to hit on, i will then shift my body towards the same direction (eg if i hit left spin, i will shift my body to the left a little).

well, i may be wrong, so maybe someone else with the technical expertise can correct me as well.

Cheers for reply will give that a go.

If your hitting the ball pretty hard or if the cueball and object are close then side should effect the pot. but as above on a long/soft'ish pot just adjust aim in opposite direction

You put it on the opposite side you want it to come off.
