Distance of V to Fixed CCB

I guess it's easier to type "nevermind" when you are proven wrong once again, than to say that you are sorry for what you said to me just because you didn't understand. :rolleyes:

I have not been proven wrong & you have no idea of what real proof is.

I was going to interject & point out some mistakes & definitive 'conclusions' made based on false premise...

but I decided to let it be & to not play into your hands to further derail the thread.

Variances of pivots yield differences.

To say, suggest, of imply otherwise is nonsensical & irrational.
 
It' on topic, unlike the posts of another.

So...

Variances in pivots yield differences.

To say, suggest, or imply otherwise is nonsensical & irrational.

And just what post would that be? You must be referring to the one that you apparently are not capable of understanding. The one that was very on topic, but you failed to even realize that. Or did you forget already??

Why don't you stay in npr, at least you are an expert there. Here, not so much.
 
whether you pivot or sweep, there is only one ccb from the 1/2 tip offset. The cue needs to go there. You can pivot to it, sweep to it, you could even pick your cue up, remove it from your field of vision, then lay it back down. The important thing is to end up on ccb, which there is only one. For most shots this is a natural pivot from a comfortable bridge distance. Shorter shots require a shorter bridge for the pivot to work. But again, important part is cue destination = ccb. The pivot does not determine the cue destination, but rather the cue destination determines how the pivot is executed.

welcome back.

Do variances of pivots not yield differences?

trust in mohrt.
 
This is part of what Colin has so diplomatically put out more as food for thought.

He has studied pivoting rather extensively & has indicated that even the most minute variance can be responsible for some rather huge & significant differences.

He has also shown that if the pivot point of the cue is used for the purpose of BHE, there can be a rather wide range that works fine.

Colin has done some serious studying of pivoting in general but his work is really not applicable in most pivot based systems. Our pivots are not just normal BHE pivots.
 
His statements are being made under some assumptions of what some would term to be false premises.

Only one CCB relative to what?

The people who would term them false are not students of CTE.
Only one CCB relative to the system

Colin has done studies of more than just pivots for BHE though that is his main focus.

Perhaps, yes, but based on what & relative to what?

There is only one CCB relative to every method, when it comes down to the line that pockets the ball.

The CCB that MOHRT has talked about is the defined one that is used in CTE. It's based on CTE and relative to the instructions that CTE is based on.
 
That's a pretty general question. Do you have a specific pivot question about CTE because if you do Stan has them all covered in his DVD.

A general question should be rather easy to answer.

Generally speaking, do variances of pivots yield differences?
