Pattern Balls

Pattern Balls (PBall), used in "Pattern Breakdown" (PB) drills, are a hybrid of a Cue ball (CBall) and an Aiming ball (ABall). The PBall shows how to strike the cue ball (tip position and stroke speed) and is 4 balls in size, providing a convenient and challenging target for each shots' next leave. See icatraining.com/pattern-breakdown for a full description of Pattern Breakdown Drills and how PBalls are used.

When a Pattern Breakdown drill is displayed, use the Tools screen right-arrow (left-arrow) to advance to the next (previous) shot of the PB drill.
