Learn to draw the bow across the strings with as smooth and even sound as possible. Your fingers should be very flexible such as the hair on a paintbrush. Spend extra time working on your bow changes at the frog of the bow since it is the heaviest and most sensitive place to play and change bow directions. Practice drawing the bow in front of a mirror. Make sure that you bend your elbow and not your shoulder. Practice very slowly no matter how ugly and painstaking. Spend most of your allocated practice time on the difficult techniques.

For Grandpafiddle – I did notice, quite a while ago. Then they reappeared, didn’t know they were gone again. I think reviews help.Mouse
It was weird. I don’t know why I thought about that, but in the backroom, I got to thinking when I was looking around. Then thought about it some more, and tested it out. Voila!Mouse
Yep. The topic title was the same as the forum room name. You cannot give a new topic title the same name as the forum room. I tried it elsewhere and the same thing happened.Mouse
Oooh. I had an idea as to why GP-Fiddler’s post did not work. I tetsed my theory. If it happens again, I will know why. 😁Mouse
For Grandpafiddle – I had to delete it. There was a symbol beside the bubble that looked like maybe you logged out before it posted all the way, maybe. So, it maybe got caught in lala land. I could be wrong.Grandpafiddle
Hi Mouse. Maybe I did something wrong when I posted it? Maybe you can fix? If not, delete. Not really important. G’paRecent Forum Posts
