Assume that Billy is your student and, with regards to his Pivot, wants to know, first, what he is doing now, and second, what (if anything) he should be doing to get better (and remember, these guys will kill for one-quarter of a shot per round). He also expects you to justify your recommendation.

Some tough questions need to be addressed:

If it is not a Head Pivot Center, then is it a Between-the-Shoulders Pivot Center?

In your opinion, does he have a Pivot Center at all?

If not, do you think he should?

If so, which one?

In other words -- seriously, Bob -- if he were your student, what would you tell him to do...and why?
Thus far, no one will even agree that BC's head is moving back and down from the Top to Follow-through. Can we get a yes or no on this?

I thought a head pivot center sequence would look like Diane in Chapter Nine [6th Edition]as seen in photos 9-2-1#1 (Preliminary Address), 9-2-2 #1 (Impact Fix), 9-2-10 #1 (Impact) and 9-2-11 #1 (Follow-through). She doesn't look like BC to me.

If Casper's sequence from the Top on pages 144-145 is, in actual fact, a head pivot center sequence, then I obviously don't know what a HPC is or what it's supposed to look like.

Just looking for some understanding here.
