This is from the Large Area Maneuvers (Intermediate) Test Group.
This is a test to determine how consistently you can move the cue ball over the whole table area. There are six layouts. Shoot each layout three times. Keep track of your score.
Your ability to run out these table layouts will develops personal confidence when similar maneuvering is needed to win a game win during competition.
PURPOSE: Pocket the balls in sequence to clear the table.
TO MAKE THIS WORK FOR YOU:
1. Set up the donuts for all the balls in the layout. Start each layout with ball in hand.
3. Shoot in sequence: 1, 2, 3 (you can also shoot in reverse sequence – 3, 2, 1).
4. You own the set when you can run-out three times in a row.
5. Move to the the next layout.
For instructions on scoring yourself (or on a challenge to your buddies), see “Billiard Skills Challenge – Instructions” for details on practice/skill development and challenges among buddies.
Suggestions: Switch balls with other balls (i.e., 1 Ball in 3 Ball position, 3 Ball in 1 Ball position, etc.). Feel free to challenge friends on who can successfully complete the run-out – best out of four attempts, and other variations.
