Is there are record of which pros have shot a perfect .1000 in at least a race to 11? I know Efren did around a year ago. Does Accustats keep a record of all of the .1000's ever shot? I'm wondering which pro has done it the most often in a tournament.
Record for Shooting a .1000 in a long race?

Not to nitpick but it would be a perfect 1.000. A .1000 would mean you did 1 shot right in 10. Not very good LOL.

Yeah, but it was in the FINALS too!! Hopkins shot 1000. a time or two. I remember recieving the AccuStats monthly in the 80's and was in awe of the high percentages of things. The players score was broken down into several diciplines. Breaks, kicks, banks, safety play and run outs. I'm sure I am missing something...maybe someone like JG-From-KY would have the whole scoop, the senior pool detective that he is!!
According to the following link, Jose Parica did it, and he did it first.

I think, subject to check, that Wade Crane, in fact, did receive the first "perfect" 1.000 score from Accu-Stats.
According to the above-referenced IPT link on Jose Parica's player profile, it is worded in a way that states Jose Parica made the FIRST "perfect" 1.000 Accu-Stats score in a race-to-11, "race-to-11" being the key words to distinguish Jose's perfect 1.000 score to Wade's perfect 1.000 score.
I did peruse an Accu-Stats pamphlet from 1986. There was a small article called ".900 Club," which stated: Through the U.S. Open, five major tournaments, 186 different players have been "Accu-Statted." A total of 129 TPA's of .900 or more have been shot with 45 players experiencing at least one .900. Allen Hopkins is the ONLY player to shoot 1.000 this year. The current list of players with a minimum of five .900's are as follows: Allen Hopkins, 10; Efren Reyes, 10; Mike Sigel, 10; Jose Parica, 9; Buddy Hall, 6; Earl Strickland, 6; Nick Varner, 6; and David Bollman, 6.
That's the way it was in 1986. If I knew the date of Wade Crane and/or Jose Parica making the perfect 1.000 Accu-Stat score, I may be able to locate some facts about the event in my menagerie of pool periodicals spanning from 1975 to present.

I also found this little nugget in the Accu-Stats pamphlet:
"How is the TPA calculated?" The TPA [total performance average] formula is total balls pocketed, divided by (total balls pocketed plus errors). After scoring a match, the total of misses, scratches on the break, bad kicks, bad safeties, and bad position are added to the total balls pocketed. This figure divides into the total balls pocketed. For instance, a player pockets 60 balls and makes 15 errors. Divide 75 into 60 to compete the average of .800.
These Accu-Stat pamphlets are chockfull of tidbits. For instance, Mike Gulyassy of the Sledgehammer fame made the 9-ball on the break 5 times of his 55 breaks for 9.1 percent [The average was 3.5 percent.] Conversely, though, Danny DiLiberto NEVER scratched on any of his 47 break shots.
Funny thing is in this particular 1986 Accu-Stats pamphlet, there is no Efren Reyes mentioned. However, Caesar Morales' name is all over the place.

You didn't nitpick very well. In pool a perfect score is termed a 'one thousand'.
1.000 means 1. Have you ever heard "so and so shot a 1"?
The decimal point goes first, but when you say it, you don't say 'point one thousand'. You just say a thousand.

No it doesn't! It's 1.000 NOT .1000, how would .1000 be better than .965? Didn't Efren AND Mika Immonen do it in one match?
Double-Dave said:
Alright now you've got me all confused. I have a few tapes where they show it in the middle of a match, I am almost positive the decimal point is first in pool rating. What you are saying is correct, .1000 is lower than .999, but I don't think pool is rated like that.
Did a search on the internet, and it says 1.000. I guess you guys are right. I could have sworn I saw it as .1000. I also figured that since they say 'one thousand' that it couldn't be 1.000 because that means 1. Who cares either way lol
