Bally, 1992It's time to update this topic and remind ourselves why its the next best thing to... well yea that!
I have been and am still on Comet (and Pinbot) tonight and that dang Million shot surely gets me close to an "O" face.. just sayin'
Quarra straight to Gem. To me the most satisfying shot to make while nailing my Black Widow ramp multiple times in a row (record is still only 4).
Quoted from 85vett:Black Widow ramp multiple times in a row (record is still only 4).
Black Widow ramp is a very cool shot indeed !!
Quoted from copperpot:Do or Die. A shot you can make all day, until you have to for Do or Die.

Amen! Exactly what I came to post.
There really some nice shots... some EE examples
Fathom... right flipper - lagoon trap, or even better left flipper cove drap target right upper flipper lagoon trap (target) combo
Centaur... right flipper... captive ball to release (after knocking down the inline drops) the balls for multiball
Paragon... right flipper... kick out hole behind the drops... a piece of plastic makes it even harder to get 5x and extra ball
Viking... left flipper (see photo, playfield photo by pinrepair) - for the 5x 49k Bonus - nice! especially when done multiple times
And of course the spider sense shot to complete the superhero final (Spider Man) - just did it once.
Quoted from MTC4U:TZ: the zigzag piano shot: L.L flipper-->U.R. flipper --> U.L. flipper --> Piano (Especially for the jackpot during multiball!)

Nice. Is this shot just using the bottom left flipper then the other flipper are dormant and the ball just bounces off them passively into the piano?
Quoted from LitzDoc:Nice. Is this shot just using the bottom left flipper then the other flipper are dormant and the ball just bounces off them passively into the piano?
No you actually have to flip the ball from the lower left flipper to the upper right flipper and with the upper right flipper flip the ball to the upper left (mini)flipper (not visible in this pic) and you use this upper left (mini)flipper to make the final shot into the piano (beneath the clock). This is a very fast shot which requires timing and a LOT of practice! It's essentially a 3-button combo shot. 
Quoted from LitzDoc:Excellent. Thanks . I will begin to work on this. It looks like a challenge. Also I like the left orbit shot to the right upper flipper into the Hitchhiker. It is a fun shot .
I agree! It's even more fun when the spiral magnet is deactivated and the ball comes in full speed!
I'll go for the simpler games every time. The ball traps for Punk and Spirit have to be the longest shots in pinball, they're fun when you tag them to get multi-ball started. Also, the bonus multiplier on Alien star is a difficult yet fun shot.

Quoted from tompallc:Whirlwind 3 ramp combo shot just came to mind. That really has to be the most amazingly sought after shot on an avid pinball players list.
I've owned the game a little over a month at this point, and I've only made the combo once. Completely awesome.
The millions plus jackpot is also really satisfying.
Diner cup shot, when you really nail it (I had one of the best ever last night.. Unfortunately, I hit the shot so well that my first four or so rotations stayed high on the cup, and didn't register a single switch hit. By the time energy was sapped from the ball, I only got 2,900,000 points).
Mouse Hole shot on Mousin' Around, especially when it's for the jackpot.
Radical! Bust-A-Move ramp. Totally hard to hit, but satisfying.
Batman Forever Baterang combo.
Judge Dredd upper playfield combos. Love keeping the ball up there bashing it around the loops and ramps.
Tron - Quorra because it feels like butter
Tron - Gem because it's so damn tough I feel like I got lucky when I hit it
