KNUCKLEf/x
From Alan:
Within the precision of the tracking data, knuckleball trajectories are just as smooth as those of ordinary pitches. Read on to find out how I arrived at this conclusion.
...
With apologies to John Walsh, I conclude that knuckleballs are more like bullets than butterflies.
How about it’s more like bullets fired by a 10-yr old? So, the kid doesn’t have good aim, he’s jittery when he fires, and ask him to rehit the same target, he won’t be able to. So, it follows a smoothish pattern, after the fact, but even upon release (knowing angle of release, speed, spin angle), you won’t be able to predict that path.
That about right?
