"The Effect of "Side""

Once again I want you to put the balls up
for the six shot, but you will not play for it.
I want you to pot the red in the middle pocket,
a perfectly straight shot, first with as much
right-hand side on your ball as you can put
on it, and then with as much left-hand side
as you can impart. This particular shot is
merely to prove something to you, so I do not
mind how hard you play or where the cue-ball
goes. All I ask you to do is to pot the red
with strong side on your ball as directed.
What is the result? Do you not find it much
more difficult to pot the red? Of course you
do, and that is all I want you to discover and
bear in mind. Do not practice the stroke after you have made it once or twice-I have only asked you to do it to show you that the moment you put side on your ball you find it harder to hit the object-ball correctly than when you strike your ball centrally.
