Alternative Methods

When you are playing your long jennies, especially when you happen to strike your ball rather softly for the class of stroke, you will notice that if you have imparted the correct amount of side to your ball it may enter the pocket after bumping several times against the side cushion, and that it is sure to go in if it arrives anywhere in the pocket opening. When this sort of thing happens, just compare it in your mind with what took place during the trial shots you made to prove the angle without any side on your ball. You will doubtless remember how aggravatingly close your ball went to the pocket time after time, and how seldom it fell into the net, if ever it did. That was because you then had no side to help your ball into the pocket, and by noticing the effect side has of pulling your ball into the pocket, you will have the best illustration I can give you of the value of side in losing hazard play. In effect, it makes the pocket bigger, as is pointed out by every billiard coach when he is taking a pupil through a course of lessons. Nevertheless, whatever you may know about side, and whatever command you may have of it, you should never use it to "make the pocket bigger" unless you are absolutely compelled to do so.
