ABSTRACT:
A combination of a cue ball and an object ball is used for aiming a cue ball to impact an object ball for motion of the object ball in a desired direction. The object ball has a series of object indicia on the outer surface that includes a center indicia and a number of auxiliary indicia on opposing sides thereof. The cue ball has a series of cue indicia on the outer surface that includes a center indicia and a number of auxiliary indicia on opposing sides thereof where the cue indicia is substantially identical to the object indicia. The object ball is aligned with its indicia parallel to a rail of the billiard table. The cue ball is aligned with its indicia parallel to the rail and facing the object indicia. An aiming line is extended through the object ball and through the object indicia to identify an object ball target indicia. Corresponding cue indicia is selected to identify a cue ball impact indicia. The cue ball is impacted into the object ball so that the object ball target indicia contacts the cue ball impact indicia thereby directing the object ball along the aiming line.
