View source for 5 Club Why Not

This pattern is one of the entry patterns to start passing patterns with [[heffs]] as part of the pattern. 

A sidenote on the name: It has probably been named "5-club why-not" because it feels similar to the 6-club why-not and helps prepare for it. But it is not truly the 5-club why-not, as it doesn't fit the "transformation schema" used for 6-club why-not (single passes), 7-club why-not (double passes) and 8-club why-not (triple passes). So, [[the real 5-club why-not]] would be a pattern thrown with zaps and is more difficult than this pattern)

== Patterns to do Before This One ==

This is the entry pattern to heffs. 

The more stable these things are the more they will make it easier for you to learn the pattern - but [[heff]]s in passing patterns combine them with passes, often making them fly more to the front than intended, so a stable 4 club fountain alone won't let you immediately do these passing patterns. 

solo:
* stable 3 club cascade
* [[423]] 
* [[441]] as a trick and practicing it as a pattern
<!--* "practicing 4 clubs" - i.e. you are at at least trying to learn 4 clubs with doubles and are getting some catches-->
So, you should be able to throw some heffs confidently in your solo patterns


passing with selfs and passes:
* At least [[5 club 1-count]]
* Probably n-count series. 

Prelimnary exercieses (thrown once as a trick in a different pattern):

* throw 441 (heff, heff, zip) into a [[4-count]] or [[5-count]] pattern instead of 3 selfs
* throw [[42]] (heff, flip) into a [[3-count]] or 4-count pattern (the flip can be skipped for a hold)
* in 5-count, 4-count or 3-count, steal the pattern by throwing repeated heffs like a solo 4 club pattern for 4-5 throws

== Companion Pattern == 
[[5c not-why]] - this is of similar difficulty. It's good to practice both patterns.

Sequence:
A starts and has straight passes, B has crossing passes.
<pre>
A 1|2: P S Z H Z
B 1|1:  H Z P S Z
</pre>

P=[[pass]]

Z=[[zip]]

H=[[heff]]

* A) can practice the full sequence plus the pass from the begin of the next period before running out of clubs: PSZHZ…P
* B) reacts on the incoming pass (which A can throw and then stop) and can also throw the full sequence plus another three throws: HZPSZ…HZP

--> Both can do a "dry run" of the first throws

* both can also practice this start starting from the left hand

If both jugglers find the pattern hard, it can be useful to have one juggler do a simpler pattern so the other juggler does get good passes. One possibility is "74464" - in the simplest version, you wait for the incoming pass and then react with "self, pass". It is important to wait until you throw "self, pass" until the incoming pass forces you, else your pass arrives much too early for the other juggler.
