I got a chance to meet and visit with him briefly this past winter it was quite enjoyable he couldn't believe some one would drive over a 100 miles one way to see both he and Shane Van Boening .
Both are top shelf people in my book .

That’s cool. I’d like to see those two going at it in a relaxed atmosphere. But in Montana 100 miles is like 20 everywhere else. There’s no traffic or speed limits! Or at least that’s what it was when I was there awhile back.
Trick shots was part of a players routine years ago.
I’m not sure if today’s pro’s even bother with them.

Yes Z-note 100 miles is a hop skip and jump here until you're driving in the winter or early morning or early evening or snowing ha ha
I've had trips home when it took 3+ hours to drive less than 50 miles home because of ground blizzards and high winds .

Probably so or any of the wide variety of wildlife we have ha ha
First time I went we stayed at a bed n breakfast for a long weekend before a family reunion started. The owner picked us up after a pretty long trip. My wife almost shart her pants when the guy started doing 90 like it was nothing, all the while looking back and talking to us about the lodge. I found it funny, her not so much.
I sure wish I could've made that, it's local to me.
EDIT: And just for fun, and I haven't said much about this on here but, the guy sitting on the stool to the left used to be a friend of mine and I started the pool league with him that gave him the opportunity to be in the position to invite Earl and Oscar
That's all I'll say about that...
In another video I saw Earl hitting some trick shots he said he saw Mosconi do. One was a shot where he rolled the object ball up the long rail and then kicked two rails and made it in the side pocket.
Sounds like he went to a few Mosconi exhibitions. I'd like to hear him expand on that in an interview.
