Do you mean to say MW used the scientific proof to improve his cues?

And you still haven't elucidated your background in physics either.

Did you know that most researchers make huge assumptions or as we say ceteris parabus, so they can reduce the explanatory factors to a few variables that can be modelled? Because they can't model every variable? And that's exactly what they can't do, model every variable that occurs in a snooker shot, so they reduce it to F, M and A for the simple folk. What they're explaning is probably only 50% of the truth.

The reason you need to hit through the ball and follow through is about fluency of the stroke. Really, The follow through is just continuing the momentum of the complete stroke.. That's what's important.

Mathematicians are still arguing whether numbers really exist. Hawkins argued against the idea of Bosons until they were recently discovered. There is no such thing as proof given science is still a very young discipline operated by posh chimps with relatively small IQs and those are the ones at 150+ I'm talking about.

Hit the ball, pot the ball and put the white where you want it.
Measure the success of your method by your results.

Nic Barrow and TD wouldn't profess to be an exper in a subject they don't have qualifications in like you! And they'd tell us to stroke through the ball with acceleration anyway. TD has said as much on this forum kermit.

I should have said Scientific Theory

Once this is understood it becomes clear why players with all kinds of techniques can get equal reactions from the cue ball, simply because none of it matters in the end. From the cue action antics of Alex Higgins to the machine like action of Murphy if they both hit the ball at the same point at the same speed with the same mass they will get the same reaction.
Anything else related to feel timing etc is simply a matter of how that player generates teh speed and how accurate they strike the cue ball.
Simple experiment for all you players out there. Play a series of deep screw shots the way you normally do, assuming you play like most of us and look at the object ball last note your results. Now play the same series of shots and look at the cue ball last and watch your tip hit the ball, report back.
Is this your theory ?
