May Kaarlus had an exhibition show with many shots and she performed at times with male world champions about 1900.
The shot was a rail first carom back to the rail carom off a second ball and then 5 rail carom on a 3rd object ball on the opposite long rail. This shot is in one of Bob Byrnes books.
I first showed this shot to Mike Massey about 20 years ago, he did not attempt it for some reason.
I just showed it to Preacher Ronn and Sammy in Tempe Arizona last week, On the fourth or fifth attempt Ron went about 6 inches to the long side of the 3rd ball on a Gold Crown table at Kolbys.
I also showed them a shot George Rood taught me.
Shoot the cueball into the side pocket facing from the about half way to the bottom rail and out from the rail so that you can just hit the facing full.
"I have to use low english"
The cue ball goes across table, bottom rail, side rail then to about the first to second diamond on the rail opposite where you shot the ball.
I usually just move the ball to the rail so that when I hit the shot again I pocket the ball in the corner.
Sammy made this shot on about the third try.
Thanks to Ron and Sammy for the great time I had that night!
