There was one World 3C Championship played with 'Optional CB'! Overview Welker Cochran did indeed win a World Three-Cushion (3-C) Championship that was played under the unique "optional cue ball" rule. [1, 2] Cochran captured the World Three-Cushion Championship title in 1944 by reclaiming...

Here's a position that comes up more than players wish. Where trying to play 3 cushions, (long, short, long) with a Big 3rd around the corner is difficult because tryin to contact ball 2 very thin is really hard, and the player is afraid of the, 'Kiss.' I've found throughout the years that...

Do You have bad eyesight? I thought according to the 'Science guys' the cue's job is finished when making contact with the CB!

I think this 'Drill/Test' is an example of using 'Soft Hands'!

What's Your 'Criteria' for Best? Why do You 'Play' with a 9-10mm tip instead of 11.5-12mm! There must be a 'Reason' for You! I like Very simple! I already gave 'My' specs!

It seems according to 'Your Logic', there should Only be one style cue to 'Play' with! What would the 'Perfect' cue be, Specs?

I wonder how a hammer would work for 'Nuance/Finesse' shots!

100%! Years ago I had several conversations with Sir Raymond Ceulemans, because I came up on the game of 3C in a odd time for the game in the US, Early-mid 60's, I heard 100's of stories of the players of Hoppe's era from my Mentor Ernie Presto! Obviously I had to ask 'Mr100' the Big question...

He's just looking for a 'Gothcha' moment reply!

Who said the cue has to be 'Expensive'? Maybe, back then that's all He could afford! This thread is about the 'Arrow' Not the 'Archer'!

You're Not a 3C player! Your interpitation of my definition is Not a Generalzation of what happens on many 3C shots! In 3C we most likely use/require 'More Effect' than in Pool! I did mention my Opinion/Expertice is concerning a 3C cue! I think Bafa had a good explanation of what He...

You know what 'Effect' means, 'English/Spin/Follow/Draw/Power/Least Vibration'!

In 3c, a cue that gives the player the, 'Maximum' effect to the CB with the 'Least' amount of effort!

The cue will be For Sale! DM me if interested!

I developed this 'Technique/Method' for this difficult position years ago!
