Find-a-Shot Puzzle #02
There is a dead ball shot in this mass of balls somewhere, and it’s your job to find it.
Good luck, and let me know what you think.

Did you find the carom shot to make the 5 Ball off the 2 Ball into the lower left corner? Did you know that to be successful with this shot you have to come off the rail and into the 5, otherwise you’ll miss? Note that this shot as diagrammed is much easier than comboing the nine into the 2, potting the 2 Ball. That’s a tough shot and not what these puzzles are all about. You should be looking to find the dead ball, the sure thing.

I agree with Shaun. 2 ball looks good as stated.
I also like the 5ball played off the bottom of the 2ball. Shoot (bank)the 9ball rail first into the 5 to hit about 1/2 ball.
Or not.
