Not sure if this is really used in serious play. Just wanted to share.

I can't imagine it has a high degree of accuracy.

Looks like a snooker cue.

I can see a line of jewelry coming out with this design. Hmm...

It's not only a snooker cue, the tip looks like pie-plate on the head of a pin.

I would like all my opponents to use this gadget....
...hell, I'll buy it for them.
 
I could only see someone using this if they had no other choice. (arthritis or something similar)

Otherwise I would avoid it like the plague.

(on the other hand....what a great hustle!)
 
Probably another overpriced piece of plastic. Heck, you could accomplish the same thing by holding a $2.00 moosehead bridge in your hand.

Why use anything. Your knuckles are already that shape. I suppose they could act as Brass knuckles...if they were brass :eek:.

There's a guy here in town that shoots like that...we call him 'Knuckles"...if you can imagine that ;).

one gadget I always thought was secretly great, even though it looked ridiculous, was Earl's homemade finger bridge. It was little cardboard tubes that slipped over your four fingers, so you could easily elevate your bridge when treetopped. It looked very stable, especially in situations where you are too far to reach easily but not so far a bridge is needed.
 
At the risk of jumping the gun, I'm going to say that is one of the stupidest pool ideas I've ever seen. It introduces another variable into a motion where you want to reduce the variables. How can it be more stable than a direct hand bridge?

Maybe there's a good reason for it; I'm just not seeing it.
 
Remind me of these types of 'key rings'

We have a player in town that shoots over his knuckles too.

He says that its more natural than a closed or open bridge and insisted on drilling me on it one night.

Doesn't seem to hinder his game.
 
I was born with my hand naturally shaped like that. It was caused by my mother accidentally ingesting Kamui chalk while she was pregnant with me. It also explains why I am fluent in Japanese.
