      A technique from [\textit{D. Bezdek} and \textit{K. Bezdek}, Geom. Dedicata 141, 197--206 (2009; Zbl 1169.52002)] is employed for studying billiard trajectories in convex bodies with the length measured by a (possibly asymmetric) norm. A lower bound result for the length of the shortest closed billiard trajectory is proven and its relation to the non-symmetric Mahler problem is discussed. As a byproduct, some known results from the literature are rediscovered.
