The history of predator low defection.. interesting video

The slow motion starting at 6'28'' shows a kind of bending which makes me understand why some of the very efficient low deflection shafts - Z-shaft from predator for example - can be played without compensating deflection, because there's zero deflection created although adding pretty much of side rotation.
It looks like half the ferrule bends and is maybe compressed in fourth frame below, frame number 2120 (CT 00000.35460).

Practice what I Preach

Blink and you could miss him.
Ronnie The Rocket vs Mark Allen.

Probably requires a prescription but the one match is worth the price of entry.
I flash back to my first up close observation of the professional pool in the 80s. Started in 84 or 5 (I think). The last lake Tahoe event. Then once a year for the late 80s.
I certainly didn't mind the daily entry fees. 🤷‍♂️
