Figure 76 shows a beautiful positional
cannon which is almost as difficult in execution
as the foregoing is simple and easy. The
red ball is tight against the top cushion about
midway between the billiard spot and the
left-side cushion. The white ball is 21/4 inches
from the side cushion and 15 inches from the
middle pocket. The cue-ball is in hand, and
while there is a good deal to be said about
alternative scoring possibilities, there can be
no doubt that the best shot is the cannon
shown in my diagram. To make this, you
place the cue-ball 4 inches back from the
baulk-line and exactly on the curve of the "D" at the left side of baulk. You play full
on the white, with top and strong right-hand
side on your ball. This directs your ball
straight to the side cushion, from which it would rebound in almost the same direction
as the white, but for the powerful side it
carries. This pulls it away up the table, to
make the cannon as shown in my diagram.
You want a lot of side, mind, to take your
ball off the side cushion at the correct angle for this scientific cannon. The reason you
make the cannon in this way is because it
enables you to direct the white over towards
the red off two cushions, thus bringing all three
balls together, and once again complying
with that golden rule of positional play
which orders the balls to be so left at every
opportunity.
