Pro Players Play Safeties, Too
When we think about pro players, we often think about break and runs and how
consistent their shot making abilities are. We don’t often think about
their incredible safety abilities. But, the concept is genius! I don’t have
to be able to run nine balls if I can play good safeties. I only have to
be able to run a few balls at a time, play a good safety shot, and then run
a few more balls. With this in mind, my instructor taught me a handful of
routine safeties that come up regularly before he ever taught me patterns.
The first thing to learn about playing safety shots is to judge when to use
them. Sometimes you play a safety shot when there are no offensive choices.
Other times you do have an offensive shot, but maybe it’s a difficult
shot that you have a low percentage of making and successfully getting shape
on your next ball. In both of those scenarios, it’s fairly easy to decide
on playing safe.
There are instances, though, where playing a safety shot is not so obvious.
Sometimes, in 8-Ball for instance, you have several open shots, but one or
two balls that are tied up. This is a good time to consider playing safe.
Remember, a safety or defensive shot can also be a shot where you simply are
not attempting to pocket a ball. You don’t necessarily have to be trying
to “hook” your opponent, but rather just create a more favorable layout
for yourself. Even though you may have available offensive shots, it’s not
always to your advantage to run out those open balls, particularly if you
run down to the point where all you have left are the one or two balls that
are tied up. If your remaining balls are tied up and your opponent has open
balls, there is a high percentage chance that your opponent will win that
game. So rather than get down to that point, you can play a safety earlier
in the rack to make the layout better for yourself later in the game. In
this type of situation you can do a number of things. You can move one of
your balls to a position that blocks one or more of your opponent’s shots.
You can move one of your balls closer to your tied up balls so you can later
use that ball to break out the tied up balls. Pool is much like a chess
game, you want to be the one that makes the last move—almost winning doesn
’t count.
The next thing to learn about safeties is how to ensure you get the most out
of the shot. This concept is most effective in 9-Ball because you are
usually trying to hide the object ball from your opponent. When first
beginning to play safeties, many players try to do too much with the shot.
It’s very difficult to control two balls at once, so start out by just
trying to control one: the cue ball OR the object ball. We aren’t perfect
and the balls aren’t always going to do what we want them to do, so keep it
simple. Think about how you WANT the balls to end up and then decide which
one is more important. If you get the cue ball where you want it to go,
but not the object ball, will it still be an okay safety? Or is it better if
you get the object ball where you want it, but not the cue ball? Obviously
you want to try to get the balls exactly where you want them; decide which
one is most important before trying to execute the shot.
Safeties are a very important part of the game and that doesn’t change when
you begin to play at higher levels. The safeties just get more precise and
deadly. I’m still not at the point where my shot making ability can keep
up with the top WPBA pros, so I have to rely on my safeties and kicking. But
I know that if I stick to my game plan and just control the table, I’m
much more likely to get more chances at the table and that greatly increases
my chances of winning. | M****e

可是想真正提高水平的话，safety可以说是最重要的一个环节了
