Has anyone ever seen this type of bridgehead before, or know where I can get one? Jennifer Barretta used it against me at the Florida Classic Pro Am.

It's an "Adjust-A Bridge". It's a great concept and the Diamond tables peoples use them for their bridges for now. They're soooo good, players are ripping them off right off the sticks, so Diamond is thinking about going back to the plastic bridges.

I googled, but couldn't find any website for them. But they are out there in stores! They cost about $40 a piece, IIRC.

LOL ..........WOW fourty bucks for a bridge head? Still 20 bucks seems a bit to much. I have one that I paid 6 for and it works quite well.
 
I have an $.80 moosehead now. Did not realize this bridge head was so expensive.
 
I won a gift cert to pooldawg last march and picked one up with that. I like it.
 
I've got one mounted on a retractable golf ball retriever. Contact Purdman. He'll hook you up with one for a decent price.

Yes, yes I have seen that style of bridge used against me. It caught me off guard at first, till I realized how easy it probably is used (never used one myself, mind ya)... then snapped back into reality and shot the stroke I know.
 
They work great!

Yes, They are rather pricey. It's like everything else though, if you love this came you are going to want the new gadgets that are available. They work well and are fun to use. I had them available for a while. In fact Mr Wilson got the last one I had for sale. I will be getting more shortly and will offer them again soon. I get $25 but like to offer them as an add on so there is no extra for shipping.

My buddy has one and he loves it. Personally I don't like them. I think the concept is good, but the device is crafted from mostly plastic parts. It wobbles when I try to stroke through it and I don't like that. I think if it were made of aluminum it would help the rigidity.
 
If yours

was .80, it is a counterfeit. The Spinali (the best) batwing or moosehead is 9.95 usually. The counterfeits do not have the rubber grommet like the Spinali's do.

These things are made by a company named Keller and marketed through Diamond Billiards.
The original bridges were made out of metal but they were even more costly than the plastic models. Also, I don't remember if the metal models had the replaceable felt inserts.
Once you get used to using it, it is probably the best bridge you will ever use. My only problem is, it is a little too bulky to carry around in one of the pockets on my cue case, so I end up carrying one of the moosehead type bridges.
 
I put mind in my lower pocket, leave the nub out and pull the zipper up to it. I only bring it out on league night for all to use. Also have one at my buddies house. We have the wheelie bridge also. Be careful of counterfits on them. The real ones have what I would call little metal hubcaps counterfits just rubber wheel, don't roll as well.

The .80 cents is the wholesale price for the Moosehead with the rubber grommit. I saw the same one at ART's billiard supply for $9.99 in Kansas City. The retail price is ridiculous for a piece of plastic, want to talk about price mark up.
