Question

Help answer this question below.

If the cue ball is too close to the rail, I use a flat open bridge on the wood rail gliding the stick across the top of my hand. Should I also glide the stick across the top of the rail cushion?

    A flat open bridge is correct, though the thumb should still be "pinched" up to the index finger. Raise the butt of the cue by 5-10 Degrees so as the cue tip has a better chance of making a fuller contact on the cue ball correctly.

    Playing flat to the table may result in more mis-cues than you would like
    as the cue tip has less of the cue ball to hit.
