Chalking with the bridge hand

Does the cueball care what hand you chalk with? Anything other than what you do to the white ball is pretty much meaningless, and not worth devoting much time or energy on.
Mental masturbation is the term most often used to describe pondering 'issues' such as the chalking habits of people who play on opposite sides of the globe.
But hey, if mental masturbation is your thing, dont forget the KY Jelly. Wouldnt want you to get chafed.
That the kind of answer you looking for? :thumbup:

Being cool is the only thing that matters in the pool world
You can chalk with any hand and still look elegant as long as you keep the pinky of the chalking hand raised. Gimme a break. Is this a for real thread?
chalk is messy
Chalking with your bridge hand gets the table and YOUR CUE super dirty with chalk. I had to retrain myself to use the other hand and I use predator chalk, super messy. Yeah it may not be as pretty, but, winning clean and mean is winning!!! Not to mention you are helping other players by keeping the table clean!!! ....

Same here. I find that I have to wash my hands more often than other players.
Chalking with the bridge hand is the way to go. Using your back hand requires you to switch your hands back around. I also like to chalk while I sight my next shot, using my bridge hand makes that easier.
You chalk with both hands? Who holds your stick?!
Maybe if pool had more style, like snooker players, we could reach larger audience.
Too many sloppy players, playing in flip flap, oversized clothes, chalking with no style, leaving their chalk on the table.
Maybe you should be on a snooker forum instead of a pool forum if you find it so distasteful. I get it. Do you just like to wallow around in the dirt?

Nice... you are the first one in this thread that knows why not to chalk with your bridge hand............

That Shane guy. He leaves his chalk on the table all the time.
How dare he?
Coz chalking with your non bridge hand gets your wrap dirty?
The chalk that gets on my hands from actually chalking, is in between fingers. And that part of my hand doesnt touch the cloth, no matter how I bridge.
The rest of the chalk on my hands at the end of a session, is of course from the table.
The cloth collects chalk with every hit of a chalked tip against the cb. It collects chalk when people chalk over the table. etc
Im having trouble seeing how there could be any measurable transfer of chalk from hand to cloth.

I'm originally from New Jersey. Being cool is one thing but being elegant would get your ass kicked. Hey, just sayin'
