A challenge to forum members: Shoot through the curtain

Here is my challenge. I am a B level player and I can easily pocket balls through the curtain as shown in this video. I maintain that any player with at least good amateur skills, and all pro players, would have no problem pocketing balls using this setup no matter what aiming method they use. For me, it is just determining the contact point and sending the cure ball to the appropriate ghost ball position (correcting for spin and throw accordingly of course). I would love to see other demonstrations and get feedback on how difficult this is. Any takers?

Yes, anyone who has played for a while knows where the pockets are without looking. On the other hand, you do see some top players walk over to the OB line to make sure.

The "I can't even see the pocket" demo was a favorite of Hal Houle's.
 
Nice, I haven't thought about CTE in years. The usual suspects who polluted the forum with their arguments seem to have moved on or been banned.
 
CTE is a staunch bunch. You can go to the aiming forum and take it up with JB or Cookie or anyone else. The only response I got from Speeder was, how do you know if you don't try it? Also the obligatory, "You don't know what you don't know." :ROFLMAO:

P Johnson argues there for sport.

The Stan schtick - all of 'em for that matter

SELL SELL SELL

Ask 'em why TS can't find the corner looking straight at it.
 
I'm not even clicking on the video.

One comment, there might be 2 people in the history of pool that went through the trouble to set up a curtain. So while it looked impressive when Stan made his curtain video 10 years ago, perhaps all of us would have been able to do the same thing if we had a curtain on our table.
