A great example of the excellent content you folks produce.


I started laughing because in “The Pincher” Gary precisely nailed the description of the problem that plagued me using the pick for decades (!) - until I ran across it while going through one of the intro GT courses.  I have a lot of bad habits built up through years and years of bad practice that I’m slowly able to iron out of my playing by subscribing to this site and enjoying all of the related content.  Watching the “basics” stuff almost always brings up a useful nugget related to a problem with my playing.


Regarding my (former) pick problem, I noticed a number of folks in the forum asking how to stop picks from “rotating” while playing.  Gary specifically mentions this in this video.  Really good stuff.


Thanks again,

The only real failure is the failure to try.

Thanks for the suggestion, I will see it. If anyone of your children have difficulties with numbers and you are at a loss for what to do, I recommend visiting this https://parccgames.com/ website. Here you will find a range of games that can help your children develop an interest in maths.
