I'm a big fan of Natural Brand camo to be exact there winter camo is my favorite for predator or waterfowl hunting !
I've had coyotes literally run right up to me and while sweeping the snow off my goose decoys and getting caught away from the ditch I was hiding in and have had geese all but land on top of me !

Either event will freak you out each time it happens , and yes I had witnesses ha ha !

Never can tell about coyotes. A friend does some serious scouting for areas as far away from people as possible. He had a coyote come up within six or eight feet when he wasn't even calling just to give him a curious look and bark. Another friend in West Texas had given up on calling for the morning and put some Alman Brothers on while sitting in the truck on the road with the doors open. After being skunked all morning he had a coyote come up the road and stop almost at the truck. I ragged hell out of Floyd about shooting a fellow Alman Brothers fan!

Luck as a skillset.

I truly believe “luck” plays less of a role than we might be inclined to admit.

Just for contrast, luck to the elite can mean a few millimeters in the layout. A dead pattern could be undetectably out of spec even to the player. This could result in head scratching stymies or jaw dropping smooth sailing.
Is it luck if you can't tell?

John Schmidt runs 820

There's no pass for nostalgia nor any other reason AND the conditions and specs on the table have long been an open part of the lore.

Mosconi did not set up the table in question. He happened upon it the night he was scheduled for an exhibition at the East High Billiard Club in Springfield OH and it was the only Brunswick in the house. And since he was under contract with Brunswick and presumably compelled to do his exhibitions on Brunswick tables, that's what he played on. After concluding his match with local Earl Bruney, having already run 200 and about to launch into the trick shot part of his exhibition, it was only at the crowd's urging -- keep going Willie, see how many you can get -- that he continued the run.
I appreciate the lore. The story about why Mosconi played on the easy 8 footer doesn't change the fact that he played on an easy 8 footer. John gets barbequed for playing on an easy 9 footer. It doesn't make sense.
As to Schmidt, I would ask: what is your evidence for claiming "he's not well liked" and that there is "personal animus" against Schmidt."

Do you like John?
Does Bobby like John?

No further questions your honor.
