Simple guide to reading back glass corner bounces.
🏆
Your #1 Takeaway
How can I easily read the ball's direction off the back glass corners?
Use the "fire" analogy: if the ball feels like it's coming close enough to "burn" you, it will "close" (come towards you); if it feels far and safe, it will "open" (go wide).
What Your Guru Thinks
