???Corey Deuel Miracle Shot???

I think about 70 degrees will do it -- you have to get the cue ball out to the object ball.
 
I would not say it is impossible...(no practical application here though)


The shot is similar to the one where you are shooting it into a side pocket, but the angle takes you toward the opposite end of the table...

You basically hit a masse type shot into the ball...it pockets the ball and then the side...(masse) makes the CB go in a direction opposite of the tangent line.

In a way that layout you show is a similar type shot, but doing it from the distance you propose would take one heck of a stroke...and the accuracy would be in the very low percentage range I would imagine.

As mentioned above, there was probably some confusion in the description.

Yes the shot shown is possible with the shape shown. It's a masse shot. I'd be willing to bet I could do it, but I'd need a day of shooting and a permissive table owner. The closest I've seen to this shot was to make the ball and draw the cue ball straight up the table from the object ball. That is, the cue ball hit in the object ball and then went straight from the foot spot half way to the center spot, which is the midpoint between the side pockets.

Boston Shorty was said to bet he could shoot a spot shot directly into the side pocket without the cue ball touching a cushion. That's also a masse shot. I imagine he asked for more than one try.

Thanks for this reply. I guess if the guy trying it can't do it he thinks it's impossible.

no then you and the person that bought it would be nuts. if you get half of that youd be lucky. no one in their right mind would pay that.


i would imagine the shot is possible. maybe not that much draw but i think you could pop the cueball enough to not hit a rail.
 
Just FTR - in that game, Corey missed the 9.

The pool God's giveth, and the pool God's taketh away.

i said that last time it was posted. nice fireworks but he didnt even get out

when i play i dont say "great shot"

i say good out or i say nothing.

how many players make a great shot then dont compose them selves and miss an easy out. even if you get lucky its all for not if you dont get out
 
As for the shot in the diagram, I didn't see it in person, but when I first heard about Corey shooting this shot was at DCC 2007. I was talking with Corey, Dee Adkins, and I believe Troy Frank was there. The guys standing next to us were talking about Efren shooting a spot shot and the cueball not touching a rail. Dee said, "they need to see Corey shoot this spotshot, he draws the cueball all the way back down the table without touching a rail." He also made the comment, "it's just sick".
Dee had told me when him and Corey were rooming together, he would go to bed and Corey would be working on a particular shot, and when he got up 7 or 8 hours later, he would still be shooting that shot. Thats what kind of dedication it takes to control the cueball for this type of shot.

I HONESTLY BELIEVE HE CAN DO THIS SHOT, AND WOULD BET ON IT.

Have YOU ever seen a Haley??? could somebody please explain the quality of Haley's work to somebody that knows nothing. BTW a few dealers told me I was in line on that price (retail). FREE LESSON -If you didn't know, you should ask more than you want. I really dont care if I sell it or not.
By the way, your friends searing that you said would never sell for $3,500 did he ever sell it? Let me answer that YES!!! he could have sold it sooner if you had replied to my message. some friend you are. a guy asks about a cue your friend has for sale & you won't let him know. wish i had more friends like you.

:o
Geeze, I forgot it was you who told me the shot. :o :o
In fact, I couldn't remember who told me the shot.

My bad......and my apology.

I think the yahoo reference came from the frustration that I felt after trying this shot over and over for way more than an hour without even coming close to drawing or stopping the cue ball. It certainly wasn't directed at you.

Sorry.

Anytime you, Corey or anyone is shooting this shot, I would love to stay around and watch. I'm a patient guy and I can even be quiet. Bob I had no idea you had a stroke to make that shot and shape. I doubt that I could do it if I had a week to try. Whoever thinks they can make it, should film the session. The shot made on film with shape would be one for history.

again you DO NOT know what you are talking about. where is this haley for $3,500 that is "almost" the same? somebody on here would LOVE to pay $3,500 for this cue if it exists. As far as the searing I asked you right after you mentioned it, then again later when you finally replied. If he didnt get $3,500 he really sold it to cheap. shows how much you know.

lol.. your mental state has already been documented.

So all the people that have come on here & said he can make this shot are wrong too? Or is it just me that is wrong? Wanna play some?
