"Angle and Strength"

There are two things I want you to watch
when tackling the situation in Fig. 16 and
its variations. The first is to guard against
hitting the first object-ball too thickly. This
makes the angle very difficult to get, and also
takes a lot of pace out of your ball and transfers it to the object-ball, where it ruins your
position. Speaking generally, this rule holds
good with the vast majority of multi-cushion
cannons. These strokes are missed over and
over again by reason of the cue-ball "falling
short," especially if the cushions are none too
fast. The underlying cause of this trouble
is striking the first object-ball too thickly,
more thickly than there is any occasion for,
particularly when you can place your ball
anywhere you please in baulk. A contributory cause may be insufficient side. Be
careful to avoid bad cueing-as it is simply
hopeless to try to make cannons off several
cushions in workmanlike style if your cueing
lacks pliant freedom.
