Can you hit the 8 ball in 9-ball?
Players must always hit the lowest-numbered ball with the cue ball first to make a legal shot. For this purpose, the lowest-numbered ball still in play is considered the “object ball”. You can hit any other ball with your cue ball as long as the object ball is the first getting hit in the same shot.
