I have come up with a way to have a loose grip on my cue every time without even thinking about it.
1st you have to have a dog.
2nd you must let the dog loose to run out into the neighborhood.
Then you must be clumsy and trip over your feet and fall face first in your driveway, But be quick enough to catch yourself with your hands. Ensuring that you sprain your grip hand. Your hand will turn black and blue and hurt like hell if you grip your cue to hard.
And there you have it. I have tried it and it works great.
And Just in time for Vegas. Yeah baby!! /ccboard/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

That would give you immediate feedback if your grip was too tight.

I think #### said on here once that you should cradle the cue like you were holding on to a baby bird. As for your unfortunate starring role in Americas Funniest Home Videos...ouch. I did that once too, but i saved the drink! lol St.

Or you can have an ice storm and spend 4 hours chipping ice away from the front of your house. That works too. /ccboard/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Watch out that you don't send your break stick flying through the air. Did that one a few times.
