I think it's important to understand that in my shot, the path happens
without inside spin.

OK. From the angle you have draw this would be true but with shots like this I like to vary the cue ball position in an arc for practice. A lesser angle and inside spin becomes required. You need to learn all variations of it. Also move the object ball around slightly in the jaws to see what effect that has.

The one I have the most trouble with is this.

Sometimes you have to draw for precise position up the rail for a side pocket shot and getting the correct ball speed using running English can be tricky for me.
