No Deflection

Trying to wake the dead horse.

I believe I have the answer to the mystery of deflection.
I was advised to come here for further investigation.

Some details:

  • No deflection with a standard maple shaft regardless of speed or distance off of center contact.
  • Speed control for the cueball and the object ball.
  • Throwing the object ball as little or as much as desired.

Even if you could make a shaft out of pure <single crystal> diamond it would still deflect.
Thus, you can't eliminate deflection, all you can do is get used to a certain amount of
deflection and take this into account as you stroke the CB.

I see your view. I wasn't saying the shaft doesn't bend. I am saying that the cueball will take off in a straight line with parallel English. I haven't tested a LD shaft but I imagine it will function the same.

In my view I think the cueball deflects because the cueball leaves the tip while the shaft is bent. My Idea allows the shaft to bend pack at the proper time to send the CB on the shot line.

Does it make a difference that my Fargo is over 700?
Well why didn't you say so, that's any entirely different thing.

Seriously, your a Fargo 700 and I've seen the movie Fargo 6 times...neither exempts us from the laws of physics.

I feel like all you did was name a topic. I don’t see any particular question to be answered or claim to be examined.

Aluminum shaft ?

Time to grab one of those Mosconi aluminum cues off of
the 'bay.:rolleyes:

The fundamental idea is the duration of contact with the tip through the stroke is the most important. The interaction between the tip and the CB is reflected between the CB and OB. Longer the tip is on the CB the longer the CB will be in contact with the OB. Stroke type does not matter, only duration.

This idea led me to figure various timing for shots that don't deflect given a desired effect.

The cue ball has a memory?

You're roughly 25 years late to this conversation. Start here:
