Abstract
A training device to assist a billiard player to separately or in combination both form a bridge and evaluate the straightness of his cue stick stroke. The device includes a rigid base, a support post extending upwardly from the base, and an elongated cue guide attached to the upper end of the post. The guide is in the form of an open trough having a V-shaped forward end and a semi-circular back end. The support post is capable of limited bending only in a plane which is both perpendicular to the plane of the base and coextensive with the longitudinal axis of the guide. Finger locators are disposed on the upper surface of the base.
