Make Your Cut Shot Bite Harder (Consistent Technique and Drills)

Summary: A true cut needs spin axis control and a predictable entry point—think bowling hook, not baseball slider.

Technique that actually cuts

• Start with a flat bag first. Wobble kills lateral grip.
• Slight wrist pronation on release; avoid early wrist that floats.
• Land just before the object bag with a shallow angle so the slow side grabs.

Drills to program the move

• Cone gate: place cones 4–6 inches apart and cut through from both sides.
• Mirror reps: 5 left‑to‑right, then 5 right‑to‑left. Track misses.
• Call speed: slow/medium/fast releases on command to learn how much bite you get.

When to skip the cut

• Humid, sticky boards with piles—push or airmail instead.
• If your last two cuts over‑curved, throw a dead‑straight push next to reset.
