Getting position for a ball in the corner when you have a thin cut into the side pocket of that same side of the table is a good example of how sometimes it is better to hit a little harder. It is very difficult to hit the first object ball soft enough to get shape on the second. If you hit the first object ball a little harder it will come off the far rail and leave you good shape.I tried 3 takes to demonstrate this simple concept before my batteries died and now have even more respect for how well done forcefollow\'s videos are. I never quite got a really good video of that concept but perhaps an adequate one and it was fun to try.\n\nThanks to youtube.com/bigrigtom for his help on this and for the use of his fantastic garage table\n\n:) beginner, billiards, cueball, learning, pool, position, tip
