If all of the games I have played had a subjective skill index, and as bad as I am in pool, I am still "relatively"closer to a pro pool player than, say a pro ping pong player, pro golfer, pro anything .

Here's something that helped me yrs ago. A couple of seconds before shooting, start slowly rotating the cue in your stroke hand and continue on thru the stroke. I remember being surprised that it helped.

In your opinion which 3 players seemingly never miss? I'm assuming it's Gorst, Filler, and...who's the 3rd name?

Ha!, Coincidentally, I was searching YouTube for Target Pool competition and... nothing! I'd love to see the top pros go at it.

I'm guessing backers don't have any way of knowing.

Watching F. Gorst today...I got the impression that with his stroke and mechanics it would be hard for him to miss .

To those bothered by the o.p. ...you thought I sounded critical of Earl? Read it again.

Half way down there's the same circle of chalk that you see on bar cues, house cues and resulting from chalk with a deep hole. That says to me that Earl isn't that demanding about "painting"on a perfectly chalked tip. That really stuck in my mind .

Consider...not THAT long ago, Jack Nicklaus's money leading numbers have now been surpassed by countless other lesser golfers.

Ummm ?

Could Efren also be considered the 9 ball GOAT?

I like the feel of my cue with a 3" ext. Aims and sets up well, but like you hasn't 'significantly improved' my game.

There's something about Grenier's voice and commenting that I love , and thusly have to go with him as the best.

One reason to watch violent crime drama Animal Kingdom. She's Leila George, daughter of Greta Scacchi and Vince D'Onofrio.

I've always liked a dime or penny wrapper. The cue glides with zero friction.

Ah, my post said shoot it 'as well' as Efren.

I defy anyone here to shoot that shot as well as Efren in 10 tries. I gave up after 3 tries

I think the OP's usage of the comparative is correct , although either is OK. Carry the sentence out...."is worse than others".

One of the most entertaining matches ever and not just for the pool. Never got tired of watching it. Thanks so much.
