Design a shot. See how it plays. Take it to the table. Billiard Shot Studio helps players and coaches explore shot ideas, understand cue ball movement, and build a personal practice library. Set up the balls, adjust the stroke, and watch the simulation show how each change affects the shot. EXPLORE MORE TABLES Set up shots on 7-, 8-, and 9-foot pool tables, Heyball, 10- and 12-foot snooker tables, or a pocketless carom table. Choose cloth colors to make the workspace your own. SEE EVERY DETAIL • Play, pause, scrub, and step through shots frame by frame. • Change playback speed from 2× down to 1/32× to see exactly how the balls react. • Turn on the Spin Indicator to see the cue ball's sidespin, follow, and draw as it travels. • Add Playback Effects: motion trails and flashes at the cue strike, ball contacts, cushion hits, and pocket drops. • Choose a cue ball style (Classic, Measle, Two-tone, or Two caps) and watch it roll. • Follow ball paths, see where balls make contact, and continue from where the balls stop. DIAL IN THE SHOT • Position balls precisely and zoom in up to 4×. • Fine-tune aim, speed, spin, cue elevation, and cue ball deflection. • Try ideas freely with undo and redo. • Drag the Aim, Cue tip, and cue stick popups out of the way to keep your shot visible. • Use portrait or landscape on iPad, resize windows, or fold and unfold iPhone Duo without losing your work. PLAN YOUR NEXT SHOT Tap a pocket to line up a direct pot, show a Shape Zone to plan position, or turn on Pocket Aim Lock to keep the pot on target as you adjust the shot. All free. Find Positioning Shot searches for a shot that pockets the selected ball and sends the cue ball toward your chosen destination. Then drag the destination target to explore nearby positions.
