A P A 5-Man Team Tournament at Tacoma’s City Lights
February 7th & 8th
$2,000 ADDED Next place E ball one half of a ball to the left of pocket E and one half of an inch out from cushion # 3, the long rail. The cue ball is in hand anywhere behind the X line. The objective of this shot is to shoot the cue ball to E ball, carom to cushion # 3, then rebound and curve back to F ball. You make both object balls as pocket letter designated. A scratch is allowed and you may contact an extra cushion by F ball. Here are a few helpful hints on how to execute this shot. I place my cue ball centered from pocket A to E ball, not as diagrammed. Keep your cue level to the plane of the table. You don’t need as much high, (follow) on the cue ball as you think you do. Stroke at a moderate speed and not with a lot of power. Based on a 13 mm tip, I use about two-thirds of a tip of left English. Don’t forget to follow through. Have fun with this one. Next months Artistic shot will be from the bank/kick Discipline and have a, DOD of 7. OTB
