What part of it can't you get?? I'm guessing the second hook in?? Try hitting farther out on the cb than you think you can.
looks like a draw shot, you try that?

I tried this shot today.

With a slug CB, I was able to do it 2 out of 10 (20%).
With a red circle CB it was a little better 4 out of 10 (40%).

This was on a 9 foot table.

I imagine it would be extremely difficult on a ratty old bar table with a slug CB. It's a little hard to get CB spin on crappy equipment. If you are on a new Diamond 7 foot bar table, then you should be able to do it.

It's extreme left masse spin.

I tried the mirror image, and had more success. For some reason, I can masse better hitting on the right side of the CB. I actually got too much spin and doubled the rail too early.

BTW: I was using my OB1 w/Talisman tip, and I just treated the tip with a leather softener.
 
Sayginer's shot is more of a wicked draw shot. For Efren's shot, he's jacked up to about 70 degrees or so; it's not fully vertical. From the cue stick's viewpoint, you should just be able to hit it at 9 o'clock (or 3 o'clock if you decide to mirror it) and get it to work. I think the biggest trick is getting as much spin as possible without getting too much speed. Once you get that, you can try this:
