70-ball run on my Diamond, rails and pockets recalibrated by Glen Hancock (King Cobra). Table plays great and I highly recommend Glen's work.

Due to inexperienced editing skills, the miss was inadvertently edited out. It's a shame too because I had a great shot and I just simply dropped my elbow because of an adjustment in my stroke.

I welcome any constructive comments as I'm wanting to get a little bit more engaged with straight pool.

Thanks,
Stan Shuffett

Hi Stan!

Just saw this. Stepping out to do some errands before bad weather hits, but I'll comment in more detail later.

There are several points where you were in trouble (as you know), but your great shot-making skills bailed you out. There are a couple alternatives to the patterns that you chose, that would've yielded perhaps a better result, and less cue ball movement.

I'll comment later, but in the meantime, I'm sure others will reply and offer some suggestions/recommendations!

Will reply later,
-Sean

I appreciate any feedback from you fellows up thar in 14.1 country.

The music is from a $200 CAMBRIDGE SOUNDWORKS RADIO CD. It is quite equal or better than IMO than the BOSE RADIO CD counterpart.

That 3 rail break shot was quite a shot.. All in all I thought it was a nice run.

Thanks, I just ran a 105 on the same diamond table. Needless to say, I am thrilled and have it on video as long as my camera does not let me down.
It's a new cam so I hit standby once I missed. Surely it won't go anywhere.

I have not been so fortunate to get a "century" run, but I did run 77 on a 9' drop pocket Schmidt with a valley house cue once on worn out shag cloth..

That's a good run, your 77, and the conditions even make it better.
You just gotta keep plugging to run the century. Hand in there!

I enjoyed watching that, i felt your frustration myself on some racks, lol.
Really good work though. Its a funny thing, i can watch straight pool videos for hours on end without interuption. 9 ball, i can watch it for about 15-20 mins and im bored.
Anyway, thanks for putting it up, look forward to some more.
 
Stan, are those hole reinforcements and how did you get them set up in the proper locations?

Nice shooting, I'm going to practice now. Thanks.

Thanks, Jim.

Yes, they're hole reinforcements. Simply get the top 2 balls started together as frozen. Then continue adding one hole at a time. Some manipulation will be necessary to get a correct group of 14. Usually, 5 or so minutes is all the time it will take. Occasionally I will change one out but they are much easier to deal with vs. a rack and particularly an older cloth.
Good luck with your practice!

Thanks for the encouragement Mr. Shuffet.. I will keep at it and one of these days maybe I will get the balls I need to put a big # up.
