Retractable Bridges

[davidyau]

Hi all,

I have always been looking for the best bridge available and which is also retractable (good for traveling), so far I'm only happy with the Moose Head bridge design though I heard there are new bridge model being used by Pros as shown on TV. Please let me know what's the better design these days.

Although I have bought from Seybert web site recently this Re-tractable Bridge Stick (Product ID RTBBK which comes with Brianna bridge), I'd rather it comes with the Moose Head bridge (Product ID BHMH) instead (unless there are better design which the pros are using lately).

Can someone help me here? Thanks ahead!!

I think that traveling wise, the best bridge will be a slip-on bridge head that you can put on a cue, either a house cue or your break cue. This will also save the space and weight when traveling.
You can get a Moose Head Bridge like this one:



I have one of those and I really liked it at first but as I got better at using the bridge I started to dislike it as it doesn't allow to hold the bridge in diagonal to the cue for a better and more stable stance like that:



If I was to buy a new bridge, I would like to try this Leather Slip On Bridge



The leather probably will not hurt the shaft as plastic and metal would.

Hi Skor,
I am already using a moose head bridge as your picture shown & I love this one the most. Only problem is everytime when I go to a pool hall I need to look for a pool stick with the right thickness to put this on & the rubber washer will wear out as time passes by.

I recently bought a retractable/extendable bridge stick from Seybert but it doesn't comes with the Moose head design, instead it comes with bridge head looks like the leather one as you shown in the picture above.

Does any one know where I can find what I want?

Thanks.
