Most of the shots are not for “beginners,” but they are fun to work on and learn over time.
I’m glad you liked the video,
Dave
-That was more than 10 shots! ha ha.
-Yes, less talking, more shooting is better.
-No, don't make this series of shots a practice drill. No one will do them. We are lazy, you should know that after your BU series
-No, don't make this series of shots a playing ability test. No one will do them. We are lazy, you should know that after your BU series And most importantly, you can become better at static drills, but still not improve in dynamic drills like the ghost, or in actual games.
-Thanks for the continued contributions!
-All of the above IMO of course.

It won’t be a DVD, but I will start working on creating the Exam III shot-diagram document. I’ll post it on the BU website when it is done. It will consist of 50 shots from the video in the 10 categories. Like the other BU Exams, the document will be freely available. Each shot will be worth 2 points for a total Exam score of 100. Maybe we’ll use Exam III for a future BU Exam Challenge.Well, I've waited roughly 24 hours now. Can I order the "BU Exam III - Pool Workout Test" DVD yet?
I think it would be a terrific idea! Can't wait!!
Thank you for your supportive post,
Dave
It’s actually about 50, but still in the 10 categories.
That’s the sense I’m getting so far.
You are probably right. But I’ll do it anyway. I’ll be able to use it with my students and maybe in our BU Advanced Summer School Boot Camp.-No, don't make this series of shots a practice drill. No one will do them. We are lazy, you should know that after your BU series

I might need to cull the list a little (maybe to 25 shots worth 4 points each) to make the Exam length more reasonable.
Thank you for your input. I appreciate it.
Now get back to working on those BU Exams! :grin-square:

Even when you were screaming at me and the veins were popping out of your neck?
Making videos is like making sausage, except more gets left on the floor.

Very good video.
I did learn one thing I never knew.
And I've been playing 57 years.
Who says an old dog can't learn new tricks.

Thanks.
Now I'm curious. What did you learn?
Catch you later,
Dave
How about 1 guess from you?
How to hit a stop shot? ... just kidding.
Maybe the bank kiss?
Curious minds want to know.
Thanks,
Dave
