Straight or slight bend in front arm?

Every player is different. Every shot requires something different. You have to play a ton and learn what works for you. What approach gets the results you want. There is no magic bullet that can be given in a written answer. You just have to play a ton of pool and actually focus on what is working.

It appears some of the best players vary in straightness of their lead arm ... to include having the forearm rest on the table.

Is there a preference for consistency? Any players come to mind as examples of either practice.

I’ve always thought a slightly bent left arm. It gets your torso / head / eyes closer to the cue ball and to the object ball and it puts you in a better position to have a fundamentally complete follow-through.
