Who has the best looking stroke?

Who has or had the best looking stroke and fundamentals?

Your question was stroke AND fundamentals and in that regard, I think Allison is unsurpassed.

Then Earl and Buddy.

Bustamante's is a thing of beauty but is so unorthidox that he gets Honorable Mention due to how you phrased the question.

Mid 80's-early 90's Efren. Not only does his stroke look great, he can do things with the cueball that other people can't.

best stroke

OK. Hard to follow that post. Definitely the 'prettiest' stroke! For fundamentals and consistancy I've gotta go with my man Souquet. He is so technically perfect it's almost boring to watch.
 
Keith McCready's stroke is cool to watch because his side arm is so unusual.
Lately though I've found Shane's stroke to be damn near hypnotic.

Mizerak, Hall, and now SVB
They all three seem to get insane amounts of spin and english on the cue ball with very little effort!

He did have an awesome stroke too.

Another that may not have been the prettiest but certainly powerful was Denny Searcy. He could apply english to both sides ofthe cue ball.
 
Here's one you all might not have seen......Dallas West! the man is liquid to watch about 20 balls into a run.

NO ONE CLOSE TO MY MAN [BUDDY HALL]!!!!!!!!!!!! :confused: :confused: :confused:
 
earl's is very pretty. It looks smooth and straight and very much like the cue is part of his arm, and there's no extra rollercoaster up and down stuff. He just draws back and plows straight through the ball with no waver and no jumping.

Someone else mentioned dallas so I fired up a video of him. His stroke looks smooth and straight but it's more just... efficient than pretty. He also seems to get right up at the end of it, tho it doesn't seem to hurt his shooting any.
