No, you cannot use your opponent's ball in pool to make a shot. Each player must only hit their own designated group of balls (stripes or solids) during the game.

Do you have to call every shot in pool, or are there certain situations where you can make a shot without specifying the details beforehand?

In pool, you do not have to call every shot. There are situations where you can make a shot without specifying the details beforehand, such as when it is clear which ball you are aiming for and where you intend to pocket it.


When shooting your last ball or black ball can you call the shot off your opponents ball legally?

No. The first ball contacted by the cue ball must be the 8 ball to be a legal shot. However, if you use the opponent's ball as a carom shot after hitting the 8 ball, yes, this is a legal shot.


What happens if I make my ball then the opponents ball in 8 ball?

If you struck the 8 ball first as a legal shot, and the cue ball or eight ball pockets the opponents ball, this is not loss of game under league play and typical local rules, regardless of whether the 8 ball goes in or not. However, under some local rules, if you failed to call this as a part of your shot, it is may not be allowed, resulting in either spotting the 8 ball or loss of game.
