As some of you read on the 106 Breaks & 7 Chances thread I attempted to slow roll the 6B up about 8-10 inches the other night and missed it to the right.

So, tonight, I attempted a drill for slow rolling as shown in the diagram above. And every time I tried to slow roll the CB through the 3B and 1B the CB went to the left. Every time. The only time I got the CB through was when I made a conscious effort to aim to the right.

Thoughts?

Aim to the right. Or fix the table.

You need to be down on the stick for this. Leave out the follow through and just tap the ball (dead center of course) with enough speed to get there. Keep your eye on the cue ball and pay attention for any deviation in line. If not, it's your follow through.
 
You're practicing something that doesn't come up.
If you were practicing where you hit the ball from the kitchen to the other end and have it touch your tip, then that is an actual helpful drill, passing between 2 balls = not worth the time.

There is a short video from Dr Dave billiards called cut induced throw on YouTube, I tried to send you a link but it wouldn't let me, just Google it and it should take you right there, if you haven't seen any of his videos you are in for a treat.
