How do you figure? I'd have to see the layout on a table but it looks like if you 2r the 5 and make it you're out or safe if you don't.

Here's how the, 'centers' of the CB and 4 ball lineup.
You can't, 'stop dead,' because, there is slight BIG () angle to cut the 4, the CB is a little closer to the short rail than the 4 ball.

Looks like you can make 4 and draw into the 15 to stop there for a bank on the 5...
But you said you no bankie ball.
Draw from the four being careful not to hit the 15 and to land on the upper side of the 5 if you touch it at all. Try to get straight on the 11, and if that works the run is easy. As long as you don't hit the 15 on the first shot, you should have either the 11 or 15.
I'd bet a c-note that i could down 5 beers in a row but not on this. Can i let Brumback or Thorpe shoot it?
Yup. The angle on the 4 is easily straight enough to do this, at least as shown in the pic.

If it's newer cloth, the angle on the 4-ball still looks like it would allow to draw back under the 15-ball, with a nip draw stroke, no?
4 ball, draw into 5 hard enough to go above 11, make 11 then 15. Easy

If there's not enough angle to go above the 11 off the 5, draw into the 5 then 15 going 2 or 3 rails(long short long) to get back behind 11

I tried it on middle aged Simonis 860 (with an unfamiliar house cue) and drew between the 15 and 5 with ease every time. Whatever the alternative, it isn't as easy.

What happens when you play, 'hard' here and, the 5 ball comes off the cushion and , 'double kisses' the CB?

You are playing off the top of the 5 otherwise it wouldnt go above the 11

I'm sure YOU have a, 'smart' phone, take a photo of the exact position in the diagram, record & post a video of YOU playing YOUR shot! Easy peezy!
Chris, the diagram is 100% correct!
When I post the solution diagram and the video of the me shooting the shot, you'll understand the,
When you post “the solution”? There’s definitely more than one way to get out from here, homie.

That's a shot Chohan would shoot, draw into 5 hard enough to double kiss cue ball into the 15, make the 15 then 11 or 5
No one said there wasn't more than ONE way to get out here!
I'm just demonstrating, what "I" did! You can play what you like! That's what's meant by, WWYD!
BTW, who's homie?
