Topic: What is your money shot?

[invisiblesmoke]

I'll give you a hint.  It's not a push or pull, not a push-kick or pull-kick, not a bankshot, not a masse, not a slingshot, not a wrist rocket or snake shot, not a bumpshot or tit-tack shot.  But it is a very very good shot with a high HIGH percentage ratio.

I would set up a push palm roll long. It`s all money.

I would say Invisiblesmoke's shot might be straight in, right?

How bout a moving real real slow Irainian. Where you set up a pull shot and when you start to go, you move the ball ever so slightly (about 1/8-1/4 of an inch and shoot it straight in with the far man. It works like a charm.!!!!  Anyone seen or heard of one? Yes I know it's a silly shot, but it works and besides sometimes I get bored and want to do something fun...sue me...lol.....try it ...

A slow Iranian? Lol, you got me there F69, I never heard a shot called that before. I do a shot where I move it with the middle man kinda lazy like and come around in front of it as if to move it the other direction but instead come and slam it straight in with either the far or close man depending on which way I move it. It looks like I'm setting up a moving push kick or pull kick but I just hit it straight in. Is that similar to what you are talking about? One type of ball movement I bet alot of these younger Tornado players never played against is the no pin ball dance that we used on the original Italian tables in the late 60's. You couldn't pin the ball as the men were hard, the ball was hard and the table was glass, or at least nobody was trying. You would see lightening fast reversal pushes and pulls set up by the dance and it was all by touches back and forth. You can't do it on Tornados as the men seem too long and the movements have to be magnified to keep the ball under the rod. Deutcher Meister tables also allowed that type of play and also allowed pins and banks. If I had to pick one table that was the most fun I would lean towards that table. So much control.

Yeah, here in St Louis we call that the "John Wayne"

When you start your pull by moving it 1/8-1/4" with a hitch then hit it straight with the middle man it's a "Gotcha".
