    Draw-back Shot

    Only those who have to do simple things perfectly will acquire the skill to do difficult things easily”
    -Friedrich von Schiller , 1759-1805

    Don't get me wrong this is a cool shot.   You hit the cue ball right below the center with a follow through action.  Again, depending on the distance for the object ball...you need to apply a good proportion of draw shot and strength of your stroke.  A cue ball with a draw back stroke, it will bounce off the cushion at narrower angle than the ball hit at the midline.

    Good luck!!!
