D Appleton is against pivoting for spin ?

How about Charles Barkley then or any golfer that you think fits the bill...? The point I think is being conveyed even though those who follow golf will point out what you already have.

LMAO. Charles Barkley is a total hacker in golf and doesn't fit any bill. Comparing golf to pool isn't even close to each other.
Every body part, joint, and muscle is used in the golf swing to strike a golf ball. In pool, the only movement comes from the one arm that does the stroking to strike the CB. It's more like somebody playing the washboard with one hand and arm in a hillbilly band or a bunch of drunk guys throwing darts in a bar with one hand and arm.

I once saw a guy throw darts sidearm across his body. He was right-handed and held his forearm horizontal across his body instead of vertical. The palm of his hand was facing towards the floor near his left pec and he threw sideways towards the board.
Maybe that could be considered a "swoop".

So do Efren and Busti pivot or swoop?

Don't know; don't care.

From your (non)answers here it appears the difference is a mystery to the CTE Defense Squad anyway. Hint: a non-swooping pivot stroke travels on a straight line to the CB after pivoting. That's the recommended most accurate/consistent way for a typical player - pros who've practiced swooping for decades aren't valid examples of good general technique.

Even Efren told me he spins the cue ball too much . He said go watch Parica and emulate him .
Parica avoided English ( and dreads inside English ) whenever possible .

Non answers for CTE users on this forum come down to the same response as yours above..."DON'T CARE."

Yes, and it's identified and measured for different reasons which is a mystery to you. It's not just spin.

Pros who've practiced swooping for decades ARE valid examples of good technique which is why they're pros. For very good amateurs it could also be OK but not for average to below average players. Swooping is pivoting except it's dynamic in the stroke instead of preset. A lot of room for misjudgments and timing.

That having been said, Ron Vitello created a "swooping aiming system" called 90/90. And PJ, you would NEVER have beaten Ron in any game at any time. Not even a set. He was one helluva player in ALL games. You would have developed blisters on your ass from sitting so long while he was shooting.

I'm assuming it's "two" not "to" before laser. Or "to get" laser surgeries. No space for the period after "tell". No space for the question mark after "answer". No space after for the period after "surgeries".

Hey, he started it and then did exactly what he was trying to belittle. It's called "getting a dose of your own medicine."

ROTFLMAO! This from the 25 years wannabe pool player who has nothing better to offer than bullshit 2D drawings and knocking of something he can't even start to put to use and fully explain on the pool table.
What a great way to waste life and it couldn't happen to a bigger fool and ass than you.
 
Well how come everyone takes what they do not agree with personally.

How you arrive at destination
Is drenching on route you choose to take.

Bicycle is slower then the bullet train.

One advantage of bicycle is slower you go, the scenery you get to see if you eye and mind is open.
