I used to set that shot up and make it over and over.

It isn't too hard.

I also used to make it with three balls stacked in the center instead of one.

I have used that shot NUMEROUS times in 9-ball games.

Liu Ri Teng made a really nice one bending over the 2 ball and middle pocket to carom the 9 in the top right. Was in the UK open year before last I believe. I think most are missing the point of the post, it's not that the shot is impossible, it's simply a force follow. The point is it looks odd. I personally feel that the video is either slowed down, or like other comments mentioned, some tape on the rail/wax on the ball allowing grip at slower speed

Real or fake? FB account may be required. The reaction doesn’t look right to me. The arc is delayed, then too gradual when it finally starts. The speed of the whole shot seems too slow. What say you?

Does anyone know him personally, from what I have heard he was an amazing man with talent…..

I am totally blow away of the finish and overall craftsmanship of his builds. I’ve been looking for one of his Ebony/Flame designed cues but learned recently he has passed.

RIP Man. Thoughts and prayers out to the family. 🙏

Is Your Cue Right For You? Does Professional Instruction Pay Off? How Would You Know?

Well, how about the weight contribution & position in the 58” length of the cue? Wouldn’t a wood to wood joint weigh
less than a piloted steel joint? What about energy transfer created by harder struck cue balls being transmitted that get
interrupted when passing thru a metal coupling smack dab in the middle of a pool cue versus two pieces of wood that
are twisted together snugly and tightly? Is a phenolic or ivory joint also dissimilar to a piloted steel joint or maybe none
of this matters as you believe. That’s what makes interesting discussions because I happen to think you’re incorrect.

The pool scientists will tell you that the joint type or material does not affect the "hit".

I am not a pool scientist.
