BRIDGE LENGTH Effects and Considerations

Nice job, Dave. This fully jives with my opinions on the subject. Until one has a very straight stroke, a very long bridge is an invitation to disaster.
What was new for me in this video was the idea that a loop bridge can possibly make the aiming process a little tougher than it would be with an open bridge as it may block the best possible view along the line of a shot. Even though it makes perfect sense, it is something I had never considered before.
Thanks for an insightful, well presented, video.
Sounds very reasonable to me.
True. Will you post that to the other side also when it happens?
I'm not in any hole. You are. Did you ever have a "get together" with a bunch of guys who posted on RSB to play some pool, see each other face to face, and have a good time? Yes or no? (just waiting for the weasel remark, denial, shifting of blame, or any other weak trick you always use) Was it the first time you ever met Fred and Jimbo?
Your claims, that others have an agenda, are laughable. It’s obvious, you are the one with an agenda. Reading your posts is almost painful, it’s like buying wheat from Russia. Sorting and sifting, trying to find a good kernel or two, it’s just not worth it. Scroll on by people, just scroll on by
Spider, the thing is you follow Dr Dave around nearly every thread he makes and turn it into some CTE debate. This thread had nothing to do with it (nor do the vast majority of his other threads). It was factual information very concisely demonstrated. His entire video can easily be reproduced by any player.
Your obsession with him gives my obsession with Diamond rails being boingy the "5 out and the break, plus the handspan".

Which is what?
Before you go and never come back, can you play "Light my Fire"?Reading your posts is almost painful, it’s like buying wheat from Russia. Sorting and sifting, trying to find a good kernel or two, it’s just not worth it. Scroll on by people, just scroll on by
Read post 126, several times, maybe you’ll get it. I doubt it.
I don't follow him around at all and could care what he does unless it's flawed. If you think everything he says and does is right on the money and law, you're wrong. My post to him was very clear on what he did and why I felt that way. Are you being boingy in your obsession with me? If not, goodbye. Don't respond.
Read this, maybe you'll get it. I doubt it. GET LOST and DON'T POST ANYTHING TO ME AGAIN...PLEASE? (I'm being gentlemanly)
You missed it

Why not use the ignore function yourself.

I have on certain individuals. Did you say anything to those on the other side of the aisle or just me?Why not use the ignore function yourself.
Actually, that’s my commercial sight where I sell instructional products. My site with the vast amount of free resources is here:
Thanks. I’m glad you liked it.
Good point. I should have made this more clear in the video. I also should have mentioned that a longer bridge can be helpful to shorter players, allowing rhem to reach more shorts more easily.
I’m glad you learned something new. This is particularly important for players with their chin close to the cue.
You’re welcome. And thank you again for your always-supportive and insightful posts.
The main reason I do not care for a long bridge length is my stroke is not always perfectly straight. With a longer bridge it makes the shot less accurate for me. I would imagine the majority of players would experience this issue and problem with a long Bridge length. Thanks!
I should have stressed this more in the video. A longer bridge is not a good choice if your stroke is not consistently straight.
I thought your video was good, I'm rather new to the game, and my stroke is not consistent often.
