A, rod selection
It's very important to choose a suitable club before playing billiards. The length and weight of the pole will directly affect your hitting effect. Generally speaking, the length of the pole should be selected according to the player's personal height and arm length, and at the same time, it should be ensured that the grip is comfortable. The weight of the club should be properly adjusted according to the physical condition of the player. Too light or too heavy will affect the stability of the club.

Second, the normal pole posture
Correct club posture can help players to better control the club, maintain a stable hitting state and improve the accuracy of playing. The basic requirements for normal pole posture are:
1. Stand firm with the pole vertical to the ground.
2. Hold the lever, keep the top of the lever at a proper distance from the waist, and the left hand can be naturally placed on the left side of the lever.
3. The club should be perpendicular to the shoulder, and the distance between the bottom of the club and the body should be adjusted appropriately.
4. Pay attention to the naturalness and relaxation of body posture.

Third, prepare for the action
The warm-up action is the first step to buckle the lever. When preparing for the action, we should pay attention to the following points:
1. Relax naturally and don't be overly nervous.
2. Hold the club with the bottom of the club on the table.
3. Lift the lever back slowly, and the lever forms a certain angle with the ground.
4. Pay attention to aim your eyes at the target ball and get ready for the next stroke.

Fourth, the buckle rod
The spike is one of the most important techniques in billiards, which can directly determine your hitting effect and scoring rate. Here are some commonly used techniques for buckling the bar:
1. Straight buckle: Straight buckle is the most basic buckle skill. When making a straight shot, keep your body steady, keep your eyes on the target ball all the time, keep your arm moving evenly, keep the distance between your elbow and your body appropriate, keep the shaft perpendicular to your shoulder, and accelerate the club head with proper strength when hitting the ball.

2. Barycentric buckle: Barycentric buckle is a relatively advanced buckle skill. When the center of gravity is buckled, it is necessary to move the chest towards the target ball, keep the body balanced and stable, keep the shoulder at a certain angle with the ground, keep the shaft perpendicular to the shoulder, and pay attention to controlling the swing of the shaft while strengthening the hitting strength.

Five, cut the ball
Cutting the ball is a technique that requires skill and experience. It enables players to better control the trajectory and angle of the ball and achieve better goals. Here are some cutting skills:
1. Left and right cutting: Left and right cutting is the most basic skill of cutting the ball, which can adjust the ball's route by changing the angle between the club and the target ball.

2. Up and down cutting: Up and down cutting refers to the included angle between the club and the target ball when hitting the ball. The angle of up-and-down cutting determines the up-and-down movement direction of the ball, and can also change the forward speed of the ball.

VI. Summary
The above is a diagram of billiards hitting skills introduced by Xiaobian. When playing billiards, we should pay attention to the skills of the selection of the pole, the normal posture of the pole, the preparation action, the spike and the ball cutting, and also pay attention to the accumulation of practice and competition experience. I hope this article can help everyone and improve their billiards skills.
