What is better an open bridge or closed bridge?
A closed bridge will give you more control on normal shots. With an open bridge, sometimes the cue stick will bounce up after hitting the cue ball, particularly if you're applying spin, making the hit less accurate. However, there are times when you need to use an open bridge, such as if you need to elevate your cue stick over a blocking ball to get to the cue ball or if the cue ball is on the rail.

What cue bidding conventions suit Goren Precision bidding system?
Following are some 'Precision-specific' cases to keep in mind. The field of cue-bidding is so wide that more is not really possible in this type of forum! I'll talk about two types of cue-bidding situations: 1. Specific to Goren's Precision bidding system 2. Specific to interference over Precision ==== 1. A couple of key situations are different in Precision - after a strong 1C opening and positive response, he plays a jump shift by opener as strong with a very strong suit. Responder is expected to cue-bid with extra values and an interest in slam - after a strong 1C opening and positive suit response, a raise by opener is a Trump Asking Bid (TAB). Subsequent bids by opener are control asking bids, and the responses show (in effect) controls similar to cue-bids would otherwise. 2. Over interference over a 1C opening (at a level of 2NT or higher) the most important thing is to show number of controls (A=2, K=1, void/singleton in enemy's suit is 2/1). There are various step bids, but a cue-bid in this case shows 4 controls (with at least one in the enemy suit) and either support for the other 3 suits or a strong suit of your own.
Where can you get your cue weighted?
Most cues are made to be adjustable. The weight bolts are changed, added, or removed as needed from the butt end of the cue. Remove the rubber bumper from the butt end of the cue. If there is a weight well, then your cue is adjustable. If there is no weight well, then I would recommend you have a cue maker or cue repairman determine if your cue can be made adjustable.
