Toot your horn!

Play in these conditions?

I was taught not to brag on yourself. Knowone likes a braggart.

But sometimes in this game we play we do something that sounds good in theory but doesnt have much chance to work. Low and behold it works!

You want to shout it from the roof tops. Well I am gonna toot my horn here and this will give everyone else a chance to toot thiers as well.

I rolled up a little close to my work. My theory was to masse this shot.

EDIT: Ok Solly and Jay have humerously pointed out that I was hasty in my depiction of my shot. The shot was a very thin cut that would have came in contact with the 9 ball. :D

i dont get it renard :s

cant u just pot the 7 (tip of inside english or even outside if u wish), anywhere on the table should give u a 99% runout...

pot the 7, leave the cb upwards and more to the right of the 8, pot it and leave the cb above the 9 to pot the 9 in the lower left corner? :s
 
8 ball on a bar table.....Valley state tournament......trying to run out solids and end up in this position due to a brilliant position play.

Ok...no problem we will just go ahead and do this.

Just kick the 1 in the corner and play perfect shape for the stop shot 5 in the corner and then of course the stop shot 8 in the corner.

This was my result. Now I know everyone can do better than this!

By the way the game was 9ball...

WOW! You got out from there. Looks like you're ready to turn pro.

my shot ill never forget, was winning 4-0 in a race to 5 vs easy oponent. so i thought why not. Used TOP left spin, so the cb bounces in the air OVER the block 8 ball, the left spin made it swerve back to the end cussion, the 7 was straight in line with the 9b, so if i hitted it right i would pot the 9. and i did. frame over 5-0. (had watched to many trickshot video's the night before :p )

That is an awesome shot!!! Nothing else you could do!!!
 
I was goofing around one day at my friends house and I had BIH with this lay out. I could barely fit the CB between the 6 and 7. I jacked up and made the 6, curved around the 7, and broke up the 8 and 9. It's probably not that difficult to do the masse with the CB that close to the OB but having it do what I had hoped was a little mind boggling to my friend. Peace, John.

Ain't it great when a plan comes together! Awesome shot bro!
 
I was in a tournament last week and I made this shot - its a pretty good shot but the only reason that I tried it was because one of my pool heros was sittin next to the table I was playing on kinda watching here and there. I went for the shot for the win and as the 9 drops I hear him say to one of the guys he was sitting with " Ill be damn, would you look at that!! I felt like king of the world, if only for a second.

Probably the kewlest moment I ever had with pool.

hehe well it was in a small fun tournament i play in, just for the fun and the nice people, u had to see there face when i was setting myself up for the shot. they where all looking like WTF is he going to do????? i felt like a god for a second :D still i think it was the right shot to play. the 3-4 cussion way would have been alot more difficult, and the shot is actually not so hard to play. the right speed is the only thing u got to have right. to slow, and the top spin will make the ball stop once it lands, to hard and it will jump over the table.

That is very do-able as well. I have to try both of those 5 times each and see which one I like the most.

My opponent was down 0-2 in a race to 3 when I hit my shot. His comment was something like, "Figures, lucky #$%&^@#!!!"

I agree going multiple rails forces you to come at an odd angle which would probably throw the nine ball out of line anyway. That was the right choice, I think I need to watch more trickshot videos to keep up with you guys!!!
