A shot tough for him | is diagrammed below. PART THREE RTHUR THURNBLAD (Worl®’s Champion, Three Cushion Billiards) Making billiards is entirely :\‘ matter of precision. The balls go where you intend | them to go. There is no magic in a billiard player’s touch. If he holds the cue correctly, l\as; the proper bridge on the table and| knows that hitting the cue ball in, certain sections gives it certahZ cpins, he will make his shots. | A shot that is troublesome to the | inexperienced is one with the cue| ball in the middle of the table,| one ball frozen on the rail and the | cther in the corner aleng the same | rail (Diagram 1). i . It is played this way: The cue ball is hit low and on the right side. That gives it “draw english.” | The first ball is hit a quarter Iulh by the cue ball. The cue ball then | takes the rail, the draw english| sending it bounding away and arcund the table, making four cush- ions before striking the corner, ball. | A favorite shot of mine, and’ one that developed at a ecritical stage in my championship match | with Art Hall for the three-cushion title is illustrated in Diagram 2‘ The cue ball is near ‘the end of tl"n‘ table, a quarter of an inch from the first ball. | The second ball is behind the cue against the rail. The cue ball be cued high so a “follow” will result. Strike cue ball the width of the tip above and to right | of center. The cue ball will Lakc‘ a horizontal spin after it hits the| first ball which will slow it up ap-| parently before it takes the rail at| the corner. ! After striking the rail, it will re-| bound around the corner, gaining | speed and easily have enough roll| to make the circuit of the table. i The shot was difficult for me and possibly that is why it is my/ favorite.
