Myth or real - Stroke smoothness as a requisite for certain shots

I saw Mike Masse do that on an 8 footer. I occurs to me the shot works better and is probably easier to shoot one handed jacked up. It's kind of an entertainment hustle.
If I remember correctly Ronnie used enough inside that the cueball curved and gave more of a full hit on the object ball. That kind of accuracy in the strike to whitey one handed was impressive.

BILLIARD ANTIQUES & COLLECTABLES AUCTION FEBRUARY 23RD & 24TH 2026 CUES ,BALLS, CASES

Thanks for sharing - last auction that I won a cue I had to pay a 30% buyers premium over my final bid price - on top of that I was at the mercy of the company handling packing and shipping of purchased items and they were very expensive if you are not local.
I did end up with a nice cue and it actually turned a small profit on re- sell even after all those added expenses - it was a Gus forearm Palmer third catalog.
NOT BOUGHT AT KRAFT! Not at KRAFT, maybe some other auction house. Read the website.

Ronnie Allen could execute a one handed spot shot where the cueball doesn't hit a rail. Not head spot to foot spot but out of the kitchen with spotted object ball. An accomplishment that showed a significant profit when executed with the one attempt wagers filling all the pockets of the table.
