Arm bent? Arm straight

That's right Saddler.. confortableness helps you alot in your game

Comfort is the first and primary rule of the set-up. Any discomfort will cause movement dujring the backswing and delivery and also does something called 'negative reinforcement' which basically means teaching corrective methods through pain, like beating a child or pet.

Every person has a different physique and a good coach will try and find the most comfortable technique which still allow the cue to be delivered straight.

Most books and videos on snooker teach one 'ideal' technique but that perfect technique might not fit all players perfectly. This is why coaches are around, to try and adjust the perfect technique to fit that particular student.
