I have just noticed something that may help people that, like me, have a bow bounce problem.

I was practicing today and was having some trouble with bow bounce. With me it's a thing that comes and goes. 

During a break I noticed that there was quite a buildup of rosin on the strings. I do clean my strings periodically so I decided to do it there and then.

When I returned to the practice session the bow bounce stopped.

Is the rosin working on rosin helping to cause the problem. Is the bow hair getting too good a grip on the string and 'letting go' suddenly, causing bounce?dunno

 

More experienced thoughts on this would be great

 

Seen it all. Done it all. Can't remember most of dunno ..... What was I saying???? facepalm
