I can believe this, and looking more closely at the clip of Efren I can see that he didn't really hit the point but the rounded end of the rail as you say. That's a more forgiving target and one I could see aiming for (maybe someday when I get better).
Maybe this is just a semantic difference.

"If Freddy said so, then I'm most likely wrong and I stand corrected."
