Ball missed the table but still played

Rules

Jay Bird Asked 11 years ago

if I play on a shot that's off the table and miss, do i lose the point ?

Hi George,

Once the ball goes out past the table it is out and the person that hit the ball loses the point. Even if after that the other player touches the ball with their bat the ball is already out.
