I find this shot easier when I'm standing on the floor than when I'm hanging from the ceiling.

Never noticed any difference.

P.S. BTW It's hard to kiss here. I'd just bank this one.

That's a very difficult shot on any table. Usually it's just a sellout to an easy bank.

Thanks for replies.
I wasnt clear I meant dbl kiss into pocket it is near. If shot is obstructed so cant be cut.
Shot is hard to show as interfering ball blocks view.

To me if depends more on the cue ball I'm playing with. I find that I can kiss it in with the measle ball better than the red circle. The measle ball seems to go through the object ball a bit more. The cue ball needs to get back to the object ball before the balls separate too far apart from each other.

Piece of cake years back with the big ball on the bar tables. I never noticed much difference with the type of cloth.

I use a lot of left and shoot it to go further and have the cue ball head back.

Not a high percentage shot, and always nicer if the pack is still there.
Plus the Eddie Kelly shot is tough.

Can the double-kiss shot work at the shallow angle shown? Here's a "double kiss nurse shot" demonstrated by Bob Jewett with the angle much steeper into the rail:

Thanks for the Vid PJ,

This shot is pretty cool. Good addition to a bag of tricks.

Probably doesn't come up often but if it does you would need to have mastered it to execute well.
