Definitely not 2001. Taht year, the 1 ball was racked on the spot and Corey was soft breaking the whole way. In the vid, the 9 ball is racked on the spot. Also, Barry was using ring girls (after every rack). That didnt start til 2003ish? Lastly, Wendy (who was part of our group) only went in 2002, 2003 and maybe 2004?
So, going by my feeble memory, I can narrow the timeframe down but can't give you the exact year. Sorry.

Your memory is way better than mine, but I do remember the rack girls.

Yeah, Jesse has a pretty decent stroke.
It's incredible cuepower, that's for sure.
He would love a like/share/comment on the book of faces I'm sure.
Nice find. I've added the info, including the BD article link, to the YouTube video description for future reference.
Thanks for the help,
Dave
I'm impressed that you guys got so close to the exact year, just from 12-year-old memories. I wish I had that kind of memory.Your memory is way better than mine, but I do remember the rack girls.
Thanks again,
Dave
Spimp found the one I was thinking of. It was Mosconi 2003: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkK0_2KtBi4&t=40m54s
Yeah he made 3 or 4 tough shots in the rack, and that one fantasy shot and missed the 9 ball straight in, just shows he's human.
I've seen several people who seem to be saying they can make the shot.
Put it on a video if you can, I really doubt there is anyone that posts here regularly that can make that shot when it is set up exactly like he played it.
Edit.
Ok I was remembering the shot wrong. I apologise to Dr Dave and anyone else that made the shot.{Although I never meant to say Dr. Dave could not make it}.
I just remembered the shot much differently than it actually was. Daves shot is pretty close and he hits it great.
I thought Corey shot it from nearer the left bottom corner pocket and was almost straight in.
Daves shot seemed to have more draw and less right English than Coreys ball to me.
Anyway , I apologise if I offended anyone, my brain has left the building.

I watch a tremendous amount of pro pool & I can honestly say that was the best pool shot I ever saw. And I was right next to the table when he did it.
Earl Strickland hit a shot similar where he was trying to go 2 rail shape a drew it so hard he scratched in the corner pocket , he duplicated the shot on a you tube video

No offense but your shot is not Corey's shot, not even close.
The nature of the 2 shots are different:
- Your shot: normal "take it to the rail with spin" kind of shot, you have like 99% of right spin to bring back the cue ball, nearly zero draw.
- Corey shot: pure draw. I am pretty sure the CB jump off slightly off the felt to conserve backspin, he hit it so hard that the power throw the CB to the rail and back and the backspin bring the CB back. It curved forward before hitting the rail and then curve backward after hitting the rail. I'm sure you know what I mean.

My bad. I didn't mean to hit you so hard. :sorry:
FTR, I have tried the shot with mixed results. Your results were at least as good as mine.
