Abstract: A playing aid for a game such as pool and/or billiards in the form of a lightweight molded plastic resin presenting troughs and ridges into which the fingers and thumb of the player are introduced and including a directional arrow for proper playing orientation. A flexible member is provided for detachably retaining the device on the player's hand. The aid importantly provides position conformity to the player, as, for example, in dictating an open bridge, a closed bridge and an elevated bridge, as selectively required by a player in the course of a game.
