That's a good example of "A23 – Massé Kick."

Thanks,

PS: Please keep them coming. I'll keep looking also.

Here's one where Corey jumps the ball and it lands on the rail goes down table.

Could you please post the video links from where these GIFs came from? I would like to start compiling them, and it would be nice to identify the sources.

Here's the link for that one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vc4KuL81wDg

Unfortunately the camera cut away before the cue ball came to a rest.

Thanks! That's sort of an example of "A18 – Hop on Cushion Nose for Shape."

Regards,
Dave

Looks good. One of my favorite examples of one of these shots in a game was Mike Dechaine:

Actually it might be interesting to collect examples of people using some of these shots in game situations.

Here's another good example of "A21 – Jump over Obstacles with Draw" by Efren: https://youtu.be/OBXJ1cDJ-0s?t=45s:

I'm not allowed to create a GIF of this one (prohibited by the poster).

Here's a good example of "A25 – After-Collision Massé" from https://youtu.be/ZqkfMeut_QY, again by Efren:



If people are curious where I'm getting most of these, its from my online video collection of great pool shots.

If anybody knows of other video examples of pro shots similar to those in BU Exam III, please share links.

Thanks,
Dave

Here's an example of "A3 – Spot Shot With Inside" from https://youtu.be/IocXrswOU1o?t=1m10s, again by Efren:

That's all I have for now.

Do any other people remember shots they can easily find that might be on the BU Exam III list or in my 25 shot demonstration video?

Thanks,
Dave

I ran through the entire test with zero practice on any shot whatsoever. I scored a 30. I’ll upload the video when I have time. My gf just went nuts on me and I had to leave the house to let her cool down.

Gf's with attitudes are best renamed to "ex's".

You can show her my comment.

I just read through the entire thread again and couldn’t find a video link for this shot. I’m sorry if I missed it again. Could you please post it again if it is not too much trouble?

Thanks,

Thanks for giving it a go. I look forward to watching your video. Tomorrow, I’ll do some work on the AZB BU sticky thread so I can start posting Exam III scores and videos there so they will be easy to find in the future.

Sorry to hear about the GF trouble. Hopefully, the cool down period works. In my experience, they don’t and you will still have some “work” ahead.

Good luck,
Dave
