Thoughts on players who seemingly take Zero practice strokes, before shooting / final follow through?

N
What is missing here was supplied by Dr. Dave (see snip below from TP-B26):

If you have a cue with a pivot length that does not match bridge length, you still pivot the cue around it's pivot point, but must use a combination of FHE and BHE. So for an LD shaft with the pivot at 15", the pivoting is still at the 15" point, but requires combination of FHE and BHE.

****
With the bridge length at the natural pivot length of the shaft (B=N), the percentage of
BHE is 100% (P=1), with no FHE pivot.
With a bridge length shorter than the natural pivot length (B<N), the percentage of BHE
is less than 100% (P<1), and the FHE percentage completes the total pivot to 100%.
With a bridge length longer than the natural pivot length (B>N), and the percentage of
BHE is greater than 100% (P>1), with the FHE percentage being the negative of the
excess beyond 100%.

At his level not buying all of yourself for $300 is the crime here. That was what I went for in a tournament a few weeks ago, and got all myself, I'm a banger, he's one of the best in the US.

This is what I currently have on my Gold Crown IV. The table is in the corner of the basement. I guess you could say that's my man cave down there but I don't spend much time down there except in the winter time when I am on my amateur radio station.

Sorry to interrupt the thread but a small world thing! One of my best friends lived in Redlands. Rudy owned a camera store, sold medium frame cameras. Met John Randolph? Through him. John got paid five hundred a day back then to photograph motorcycles and naked ladies for Easy Rider magazine.

Rudy was in a terminal stage of cancer so I went out there. I didn't go the most direct route but 6500 miles to see Rudy and worth every inch!

No pool but I had brought my competition pistol and some ammo I loaded for steel plate competition to shoot in it, nice mellow loads. John started trying to shoot an about 16"x20" steel plate set up at 200 meters for rifles. He had shot up close to a hundred rounds of my light loads shooting at that plate with no luck. I figured my short range loads were probably shooting a group, to call it that, about six feet tall by two feet wide. The gun was accurate, the load wasn't at that range. The pistol would have shot a group that would have hit the plate about half the time had I loaded planning to shoot 200 meters. Not bad for two hundred meters standing and offhanded.

I picked up the gun from the bench when he wanted me to try. I came up smooth and broke the shot when the sights were about six feet above the plate. A second or two later there was the distinct tink of copper hitting steel. I raised the pistol to shoot again, thought half a second, and set it on the bench. Nowhere to go from perfect but downhill!

Rudy my friend, RIP

I know the camera shop it's in downtown off of what street is that....Palm I think or Ford. My family had a 356 acre ranch there in Redlands, well actually out in the canyon. That's where I did most of my shooting. Best shot I ever made was cold bore with a 92fs, I hit a bowling pin at 100 yds...
