[markz]

Yes that club was here

This is Bazza, the artist formerly known as Master Blaster going for the 24 foot screw shot record. What you reckon Phil, got some shape on that cue ball lol

Nice snooker related pun there Markz
I would be happy to make between pink and blue ,nearer pink I would say. Don't think I have ever tried it, can get back to baulk Cush from blue off the spot but that shots in a different league.
Screw back with only a six to eight inch follow through, not the 18 inches advised by some on here.
Just watched your century Phill, very nice ,and what a set up you have there, lucky man, does your son play as well?

Thanks, no they don't play they are computer geeks lol.
If people took the time to actually measure the follow through it is only a few inches from the point of contact, given that all players address the ball at different distances it's clear that follow through has no effect on reaction, it is simply a product of absorbing the energy of the forward motion of your arm, the energy is transferred into torque (rotation on it's axis) on the cue ball in 1/1000th of a second and then it's gone, everything else mechanical is about how you are getting the cue to a given speed and contacting a given point on the CB, the weight of the cue does play a part and I could not see myself doing an 18ft screw shot with a 15oz cue

For evidence you only have to watch the 'Higgins' blue, what happens after the contact is irrelevant, but itsnoteasy has it spot on, you need to build a machine to play the same shot with no follow through, humans can't, something that seems to be lost on some of the people involved in this ludicrous discussion.

Let's all lobby the scientific community to build such a machine, after all the Higgs Boson is only a tiny little particle, this is far more important, well it is for a long dead, fat, black disco artist masquerading as a snooker player.

Hi vmax4steve Do you think the Higgins blue was a deep screw shot?

[itsnoteasy]

If it's the one I'm thinking of where he hits above the middle bag but comes back down towards the black end , it would have to be bottom and left hand side wouldn't it?

[markz]

Hi vmax4steve Do you think the Higgins blue was a deep screw shot?

Deep screw, left hand side unless I'm missing something.

[guernseygooner]

I would say catching it sweet it's more stun and left hand side. Screw would take the white more towards the middle.

At that pace and angle I'd imagine any sort of stun shot would have no chance of reacting off cushion like that and go towards black. It looks like a screw shot and Nic Barrow put the shot on his coaching app and its power shot with screw and left hand side. Great shot, best ever clearance!

Remind us of your qualifications in Physics. I'd be interested to know where you research physics.

Those Trump shots down the cushion are wonderful pots.

But they're not what I would say highlights how well he can screw the ball back.

The side taking from the cushion is where most of the effect is generated.

Might be worth you doing a video to show them how it's done as I won't be near a table until I see a WS coach in a while. CB somewhere near the green, down the rail and bring her back in and out of baulk. We'll never get a video off the ball over the pocket potters.
