A shot training aid for a billiards cue for a billiards player to learn how to properly aim a shot in a game of billiards is disclosed. The shot training aid includes a main arm removably secured substantially at a tip of the billiards cue. The main arm has a left end portion and a right end portion. A left shot guide extends from the left end portion of the main arm and beyond the tip of the billiards cue. A right shot guide extends from the right end portion of the main arm and beyond the tip of the billiards cue. The left shot guide and the right shot guide are configured and arranged to accept a cue ball therebetween. When the billiards player properly aligns the billiards cue with the cue ball, neither the left shot guide nor the right shot guide contact the cue ball.
