It's sure a saver in 1 pocket if you can hit it with good speed.

What cue table program is this, this is cool
can we play some?:grin:
Thanks, guys. This isn't a cue table program, I created it myself in Adobe Illustrator. I make diagrams all the time to discuss shots and document awesomeness!
I like the little diagram at the left showing the tip location and the angle of the cue as well as the degree of difficulty. (that is the degree of difficulty meter, right?)
I use AI CS4. Can I borrow a pool diagram when I need one?

Oh, first thing that comes in my mind is I thought that's a speed/power meter, like that one in pool/golf/bowling games.
I would probably shoot the 5 onto the one pretty hard and send the 5 up table. If you end up fouling trying to jump the ball, your going to lose that game if your opponent is a C or better player.
That shot does come up often,,I agree. It came get you out of a tough spot ,but the table/rails that your on,, has allot to do with it. How active the rail is ,,,makes a huge difference.
I just tried it on my table,,not the first time ,but the rails on my Valley 7 1/2 footer are so active it is very easy to get over the ball. Actually have to hit it light or the cue will hit your in the head. Its not a good table to practice this shot on because most other tables ,,I know have to be hit rather firm to get the cue up and over.
I just jumped the cue over the first ball,,like planned,,, and missed the ball intended to go in,,,missed by Millimeters and got air off the second rail ,,clearing OB. lol
I do like this shot. Its really not that hard ,,if you know what reaction your going to get from the rail.
I will be practicing this anyhow,,,you put it in my mind . I am going to master it.

The game is 9-ball in this scenario.

Alain "dancing bear" Martel came up with a similar shot during a Moconi Cup match !

I'm pretty sure that is a power meter as Vanquiz suggested, meaning hit it hard on this shot.
Sure thing, man. I'll send you my CS4 file.
And it is a power meter, not a difficult meter, although the difficulty is about 10/10.
And yes, the game is 9 ball
LOL. Next!

It certainly loaded lightning fast, unlike cuetable with the shockwave and all, that program takes me to long to load (view), hell I'm in the sticks! dial-up, I tried Hughsnet, and that crap totally suck, when your aloted time is out your done, unless you care to pay pricey time alotments, and video time goes fast on their set up, about $5.00 an hour, I can't afford that, all i want to do is view the streams., very costly , that Hughnet is!
Sorry I got off track,
BTW , your program seems simply and easy to use and set up, I like it.

I can see no reason to ever shoot this shot in one pocket.
