If the 4ball is far enough off the rail, then it can be banked cross-corner. Either brush the 5 on the way out, or follow up for the 10. If the 4ball pockets you can get them all.
Doc, I'm with yah on this but. With the four off the rail, and with these new LD shafts, I can easily over cut the 4 bank with extreme inside spin, and put em back on the long rail behind the two blockers. 3 railing my cue ball with proper speed is my Only concern. Also, with these LD shafts, I'm able to transfer ALLOT more spin to the obj. ball to keep the banked ball closer to the foot rail.If the 4ball is far enough off the rail, then it can be banked cross-corner.

Go 3 rails into the 9 (his long rail, top rail, my long rail), with a bit or right and make the 9-10 combo. The CB slides over for the 4/5 next.
P.S. I will think about a more serious shot tomorrow![]()
Not saying it cant be done but it sure looks tough to hit the foot rail after contacting the 4 and then making it PAST the 5 without hitting it, LD shaft or notDoc, I'm with yah on this but.

Cory convinced me
Combo 3rail the 9
or the 10 if there is space
great shot!Trying to embed again. The make (2nd attempt) is at about the 25 second mark.
Cause I posted as you were writing and was too lazy to make another post....If the 10 goes, 3 bumps, why play the combo, and take the 10 out of play?
Just askn.
Thanks, looking forward to seeing if yours is better! Must be kicking the 4 and bumping the 5?Cory nice shot. With position to boot. Not my shot but you taught me something with yours. Good SHOT.
You posted at 11 :33 mine showed up 8 minutes later , I was answering when you posted and pilot an hour later, 3 Musketeers ? or 3 Stooges?Crazy like a fox! This is the shot I posted at #11 and Pilot posted at #14. First time was a mess but didn't totally sell out. Drained it the second time, with shape. I figure if I'd been playing at all, much less for a few hours, my first attempt will be closer to the second attempt in the video.
I just ordered a flexible tripod from Amazon so that future videos have better angles.

P.S. Can someone PM me instructions on how to embed a video from Google Drive? I tried the embed code from inside Drive but it just copies the HTML, doesn't embed:

I have always read that, there is no transfer of spin to the 3rd ball at any distance under normal conditions. Is this incorrect?For all I know, the transfer of spin to the third ball when they are so far apart is pretty much non-existent.
Cut the 10ball I to the 9ball sending the 9ball three cushions toward your pocket while drawing the cue ball twice cross table ending up behind the 4ball. Dr. BillHere lies an end game scenario. Your pocket lower left and you need all four balls. You need to come up with a shot now or else the balls will go up table. But we got options. What is your shot?

After looking at Mr. 3 Cushion's Diagram, I think I would kick softly at the four. Lodge on the back of the 4
The 10 ball 3 rails looks like it will go too long to me , has someone made it?Cause I posted as you were writing and was too lazy to make another post.....
