If you read back comment 14 says ''It would have been even more difficult on my other club table which is 3.25'' pockets on an antique billiards table, so I feel your pain. But I will have a go on it today for you! I think Golferson has seen my video on the snooker table by now. lol''
'Would' means it's already been done. I did it first on a 3.5'' pocket table at one club back in November. Golf saw the vid and can confirm it. I did it yesterday on a billiards table with 3.25'' pockets at a different club, that was even harder. Though if you hit them plumb, it makes no difference. Golf has seen that video. So I've done it on a table with WS sized pockets and on a harder B&W antique billiards table.

Who, what ,eh? 20 foot screw back! I must have missed that, what's the story behind this, sounds intriguing.

You must have the wrong fella bud.

JCR: Golf is you know, an honourable chap, what can I say?! He can make a fine cue, knows a lot about cues and snooker and was quite the player in his day. You just gotta love him really.

But I really don't want folk to see how it's done, it's a test, you don't get clues or answers in an exam, you take the test and produce the correct answer yourself. So instead of concentrating on my ability, please do the test and produce the videos, that's what would be brilliant to see from everyone. It's a good test and requires really great touch and I'd love to see as many members do it as possible because I think it will help their touch, it certainly won't do any harm. Soft hands, like Ding!

Here is my attempt, although I used the baulk colours rather than reds

Proper job! Could see you were pleased with that. Lovely brown, dead weight, nice level table. Staying down on the shot properly. And then the green scuffs the bumper but the pace is perfect so job done. I did mine in about 32secs but I like yours cuz the focus is really intense, Ebdon like. What did it feel like?

Cheers , yeah that brown to green did trouble me a bit, I have to admit I had a few goes, I was just losing the White a bit creeping outside the D. So I had to play it dead weight.
The middle pockets are tight and had to play them really slow to allow it to take the ball. I wasn't rushing just making sure maybe now I have the angles sorted I could play slightly quicker, however I was just glad to make them
