You took the time to set up the shot. You tried multiple routes multiple times while videoing in real-time. As if that wasn't egregious enough, you made a logical, rational assessment of YOUR preference after trying the different options. Are you crazy?
I appreciate the video. From the angles, it seems that your set-up must be a bit different than the other video. I'd like to see you try the follow (2-rail) shot with about 1/3 or 1/4 less speed. Your shot looked like it was on a good line, but you overran the position fairly significantly. Although you do indeed seem to be able to get so a spot with a great view from your short rail only shot, the remaining shot and out looks challenging. -bes
The video is the ultimate cold start. My tournament competition always has a "cold start" aspect. Even having warm up.....
What are those wooden stands on the back of your video?That's rhetorical? RIGHT?
That's rhetorical? RIGHT?
am I right? Right.....definitely right.Yes mine is 8 foot. It's interesting how the change of table size would influence my shot choice. Most of my play was the 8 foot tables, a foot up or down definitely changes my preferences. So much open field on the bigger table made for shotmaking. Going smaller makes the precision cueball a bigger factor.
Marketing has let me down at least I now have a gallery. 
Looking at this shot. I don't think the OP's follow shot would even work, seems like you are forcing it to get to that first diamond and the angle coming off that rail doesn't look very natural. I might have to try this at home later.
Gee that opens up another market!
The only problem is that Mo was like a machine and professionals would decline bets that he could hit a champagne bottle in the fairway with a drive in fewer attempts than they could sink a 40 foot putt. The guy had divots in his clubs after a while of use because he hit the exact same spot every single time. You are not Mo Norman. Hell, SVB is not Mo Norman.
I accidentally clipped the y from your. I guess I might not be the only one, so off I go.
I ain't MO nor Shane nor Cole but I try to emulate what I see the top players doing regularly. Playing a top player gets a different decision than if I was playing YOU. 
just kidding maybe not Well I agree with u about emulating great players... they tend to take the highest percentage shots and favor 2 foot position windows over 6inch position windows all the time. Pretty much all great players would play either of the spinny 2 railers over the 1 railers frought with danger.I accidentally clipped the y from your. I guess I might not be the only one, so off I go.
Precision speed control is something I practice daily. Watching and studying snooker has me admiring the speed control over huge distances. A skill that's required to enter the upper echelons.
While I might no be Mo, I certainly see value in his methods and at times try to emulate. A favorite memory leads to a brag (of course it's grampa). When I was elevated to the Northwest Masters division I posted a victory playing 8 ball on the 7 foot Diamond tables. A race to 6 against Kenny Dodd who had been in the Grand Master division. There were only 12 Grand Masters so they were integrated into the masters.
At hill hill Ken played a safety that left a bait shot. A ball I could pocket but only the tiny chance of getting out. I took the bait and got out. Mo would have been proud of the first shot I took on and made the most improbable shape.
There is a time and place for different choices. There's another movie quote that I can't remember who to attribute. "A man's gotta know his limitations. " Pretty sure it was Dirty Harry. Pretty sure.....
If a basic pool shot like hitting low-outside through a massive window is a limitation, I can't see how pin point angle and speed control could be strength.
Can't means Won't.Wobbly said:
Because for some reason you’re playing to 3rd rail. Take a look at the OP’s diagram again. He’s playing a follow inside 2-railer for position to the same pocket (lower left as viewed from above the table), same as the draw 2-railer with outside. Both playing to the obvious same pocket. I think because you mirrored the layout, you confused yourself as to which pocket to play position for.I remember a semi insult regarding practice kicking because I couldn't play shape. Just because I kick like a Mule doesn't mean it's my only "super power".
