This is an old shot that I picked up from Sebastian Giumelli. The cue ball splits the combo off the side rail sending one ball up into the corner pocket while the other banks and is directed into the corner pocket by the rack. The cue ball kicks off of three rails and rides up the side of the bridge finally hitting the bridge head and knocking in the final object ball. Learn how!

Gordon 'The Wolf' Hedges challenged me with this shot at the Ultimate Trick Shot Tour stop at Shooter's Billiards in Southington, CT. Neither of us made it that time though. A row of three balls is lined up by each side pocket led by a rack. The cue ball caroms off each rack, shoving each row of balls into their respective pockets, then travels down for the last solid ball in the corner pocket.  Learn how!

This is another of Andy Segal's pinball shots, pocketing one ball in each pocket. The cue ball initially pockets a ball in the side pocket, then hits the near rack pocketing another ball. It continues into the short rail then over to the long cue stick which pushes another ball in, then off a couple more racks for two more balls, then is guided nicely across the table by the short cue stick to pocket the last ball hanging in the corner pocket. Whew! Learn how!

This is a shot Jennifer came up with, hence the name. It takes advantage of the giant 8 ball. The cue ball is jumped off the 8 ball, over the blocker balls and swished into the corner pocket. I've included both a side view and back view for this shot. Learn how!

Here's a shot taking advantage of the giant 8 ball, which is initially propped up on a piece of chalk. The cue ball knocks the 8 ball down and caroms back to pocket the 1 ball hanging ball in the side pocket. Meanwhile, the 8 ball rolls and pushes the 3 ball in the side pocket, eventually following in (or as much of it that can fit!). Learn how!

Here's a speed shot Ralph Eckert used in the 2008 World Cup of Trick Shots. The cue ball is first hit three rails around the table. In the meantime, five object balls are machine-gunned into the corner pocket before the cue ball gets there. Learn how!

This shot combines Just Showing Off and Over, Around, and Under. The balls are set up as in the Just Showing Off with the addition of a bridge lying across the table. The five object balls find their way to their usual pockets while the cue ball jumps over the bridge before going around the table for the hanging ball. Lots of action in this shot. Learn how!

I thought up this shot as yet another variation to the classic tube shot. This is just an addition to my Tubular Draw, but I use a jump-draw instead. It's really pretty the way the cue ball hits the first object ball, jumps up, and lands between where the two balls on the coin wrappers have dropped. Then the cue ball spins back escorting the two balls in the side pocket. Learn how!

At the 2006 World Championships, I showed a spectator the Four Rail Stack Drop. He decided to modify it to the side rail. I hit the cue ball into the side rail, dropping the supported ball. The cue ball comes off the other side rail and returns to kick the formerly supported ball into the side pocket. I got an extra kiss from one of the supporting balls this time around. Learn how!

This is a difficult version of a simple timing shot, popularized by the movie Poolhall Junkies. Here though, the cue ball and the object ball start on top of the side rail. I shoot the cue ball across the table, which rolls the object ball along the rail. The object ball falls onto the table when it reaches the side pocket, just in time as the cue ball kicks back off the opposite side rail to pocket it. Learn how!
