I don't remember if I posted this before.
This is, IMHO, a pretty difficult shot. You need both balls, the CB and another ball are frozen on the rail. Ball on the spot,with a very difficult angle to swing the CB over to get position on the frozen ball on the end cushion at the 1st diamond by your opponents pocket.
The difficulty is, being able to softly half-follow thru the ball on the spot with extreme English! If you hit it to hard, the 'carom' widens and is impossible to swing across the table towards the bottom rail to play the last ball.
Maybe some guys can try the shot and let me know what YOU think!
I really, 'over-cooked' the shot!
P.S. Take note, frame by frame of the shaft following thru the CB.
