Aim high: Generally, it's a good idea to aim at higher pegs (especially at the beginning of a level). You'll get more pegs (and points) as the ball makes its way to the bottom of the board.
Make 'em work: Although it's great to get rid of the orange pegs (it's the point of the game after all), the more you can do with each ball, the better. Can you score a free ball? Can you hit a purple peg along with the orange?
Use the bounce: Try bouncing off of the side of the Free Ball Bucket to get low-lying pegs. Now try bouncing off the walls. Fun, huh?
Think before you shoot: Remember, there's no timer, so there's no need to rush. Think through your options, make a plan, take a deep breath and fire. Your goal should be to hit at least three orange pegs on each shot.
Practice: Yes, it's true. With practice, you can improve your ability to predict which way the ball will bounce. If you have extra balls left at the end of a level, use them to brush up on your skills!
Get rid of obstacles: Peggle Masters know that if you have enough balls left, it's sometimes wiser to spend a shot clearing an obstacle than attempting a risky bank shot. Watch the Video
Go for the slide: Since every curve and line is a bit different, there's no one surefire strategy, but, if you find the sweet spot, the slide can serve you well. In most cases, if you have a clear shot to the first brick in a line, you can aim parallel to the line and make the slide. You may have to get rid of a few key bricks to get the perfect shot.
