I played Vernon for the cash/low/stakes, back in the 80's, when he began making some really unusual banks i knew it was him, no one wanted to kill his action by giving me his name. We played at Parkmoor in Louisville for 4 hours 30 bucks a rack, broke even, was glad to have done that well playing Vernon.

I wonder if it's required to have a FAULTY stroke to produce this shot, as Bob Jewett has by following thru across the cue ball crooked, instead of using a , "straight thru" stroke! Bill Smith "Mr3Cushion"
Heh, heh. I think Bob was using Back Hand English (BHE), or some form of it. He's always been a good player with sound mechanics, who has been a certified pool instructor for many years. But the stroke he utilized for this particular shot does give the appearance of amateurism.
Doc
Some of the old, old-timers used to teach that stroke for certain shots (along with another one involving a twist of the wrist). Billy Sunday was one. I remember using both in my first life when I could still make a ball now and then. Just wish I could remember how, why, and when.
Watch him go down three balls below the side and still make it
