A "Bread and Butter" Cannon

A Difficult Positional Cannon

If I showed a beginner the balls placed as in Fig. 73 he would think I was offering him "an easy one" for his encouragement, and promptly score a biffing sort of cannon direct from red to white. In reality, however, simple as the position appears, this stroke will well repay most careful practice and study. Begin by placing the balls exactly as follows: Red, 3 inches from the side cushion and 3 feet 2 inches from the top cushion; white, 13 inches from the side cushion and 2 feet 1 inch from the top cushion. The cue-ball is in hand, and you place it on the right-hand spot of the baulk-line. Then, with well-judged strength, you play a plain half-ball, striking your ball dead central, and hitting the right of the red to take your ball to the side cushion, from which it comes across neatly to make the cannon as shown. This cannon leaves the balls in ideal position, again, you will notice, by directing the red to the top cushion and back again.

When set-up correctly, it is very easy, and when you make it, I want you to watch the angles with particular care, so that you can always reproduce them at will when dealing with numerous leaves resembling this most useful cannon.
