In approx. '69 Raymond Ceuleman, the #1 billiard player in the world, came to Paramount Billiards, Long Beach, Ca., to perform an exhibition match, and afterwards he performed these close draw and follow shots that traveled approx. 15' -18' to make the billiards.
The draw shot drew straight back and double out of the upper corner and then went kiddy corner to the far corner for the billiard. The follow shot went straight down into the foot cushion and left spun to the side rail and then kiddy corner into the lower corner for the billiard. The follow shot is fantastic for the cue ball sets there and spins like a top before it takes off.
I was able to duplicate his shots at that time. Thus I learned the foul criteria for these shots from him.
CLOSE PROXIMITY BALL/FOUL CRITERIA:
* When an intended or an otherwise to be contacted object ball is in close proximity of the cue ball then one must be aware that a push shot or a double hit foul may occur*.
1. When stroking the cue ball with draw directly towards a very close proximity object ball then the cue ball can not go forward past the contact point, or it will be a foul. (foul criteria)
2. When stroking the cue ball with follow directly towards a very close proximity object ball then the cue ball must pause at the contact point before proceeding to follow, or it will be a foul. (foul criteria)
3. Regarding foul criteria line 1 and 2, if these shots are attempted with an elevated cue, such as a masse draw or a force follow then the same foul criteria applies.
4. The above criteria are based upon the cue ball remaining upon the bed of the table, and not elevated into the object ball.
5. In stroking the shot on an angle with either draw or follow the cue ball will follow the tangent line before the draw or follow takes over. But, if the cue ball goes initially forward of the tangent line then it is a foul. (foul criteria).
