What’s wrong with deflection? Most of the best players I’ve known used normal shafts. Go.

Sure, but that's about what you're used to, not the pros/cons of squirt itself.ANSWER
In competition I want exactly as much as I had while training.
That's about squirt.If I am starting young, I want less

Everything has deflection, after one understand this, the only difference is how much.
Less deflection is easier to learn--but once learned it is becomes unconscious.
Deflection in pool is because of people trying to use a parallel shift for spin on long shots with power. Use a pivot, find your shafts sweet spot and go to town.

That's about squirt.
The only good argument I've heard in favor of more squirt (other than "it's what I'm used to") is if your bridge length matches your squirt pivot length, then backhand English works best (and it's more forgiving of stroke errors). I think they match more often with non-low-squirt shafts.

Squirt is used to describe what the CB does...deflection is used to describe what the cue stick does.

Did it just "seem" that way (maybe because it had much less CB deflection than expected), or did it actually have negative squirt? I'd like to see that.I have seen a prototype shaft that seemed to me to have negative squirt.
