Shot/Challenge #4

Degree of Difficulty: 8
Cue Ball Placement: In Hand, anywhere behind X line.
Object Ball Placements:

#1 object ball and #2 object ball both frozen to foot cushion, and centered around 1st diamond.
Row of 10 balls is approximately 1 ball’s width away from cushion.
Player has option to adjust spacing between row of object balls and cushion, but they all must remain in a straight line, parallel to the cushion.
Player has the option of adjusting ball #3, #4, and #5 away from the cushion, but they must remain frozen to the rest of the balls in line.
All balls in row are frozen. F ball centered between pocket points.


Objective: Shoot cue ball to clear #1 object ball, carom to clear #2 object ball, and then carom back to enter opening at row of 10 balls. Cue ball hits at least four of the balls and travels in a “tick, tick, tick” sound to F ball. Make F ball in designated letter pocket.
Special Notes: If less than 4 balls are hit, no score for that attempt. Cue ball must contact object ball #1 first, then object ball #2, and then travel forward into the line of 10 object balls. Cue ball scratch is allowed (no penalty).
Scoring Potential:

1st attempt -- 8 points
2nd attempt -- 7 points
3rd attempt -- 6 points
