Ok, guys, there is nothing mind blowing here and very doubtful anything you haven't seen before. I was making a video for YouTube using this blue dodgeball type ball and I wanted to see if I could incorporate it onto the pool table. It's for a collaboration video that will come out sometime in September. After I was finished shooting the blue ball video I thought I'd make an intro for a friends channel and I shot these. Again, nothing that will wow or amaze you. I'm actually kind of embarrassed to share it here to be honest. Either way, here it is. Enjoy....if you can.

Number of shots to make each one

1. 2 times
2. 1 time
3. 3 times (first shot missed the balls altogether, 2nd shot didn't hit it hard enough, the 9 trickled up the rail slowly and fell in, wanted it to go in with a little authority)
4. 2 times
5. Lost count. I only have 1 camera, that was actually done twice to get the different angle on the shot. I was having a horrible problem with the 1 ball sliding into the pocket without hitting the tube thingy, or barely hitting it and knocking the 9 ball onto the rail. Funny thing is that I made that 1 ball 100% of the time, it was just missing the tube. I'd move the tube over a little and the damn thing would go in on the other side of it. I was really pissed about that. The second angle I think it took 2 or 3 tries.

mullyman...Nice shots! I like the last one best, because it's the most difficult...you have to hit both the 1 and the CB the same way, at the same speed, on the same place on the rail!

Thanks, Scott. That one gave me the most trouble. Like it said in the post, I kept missing it to the right of the tube, but I was making the 1 ball consistently. That brings me to 2 conclusions....

1) I'm awesome for being that consistent to run the ball down that same line so many times or...

2) I really suck for not being able to make that adjustment quicker.

I think it's a combination of 1 and 2.......with 2 holding it at about 80%-20%. hahaha!!
