Nancy Kerringan and pinky hammer on’s
So I tackled the scale today and in about 3 minutes I was really down and out. Struggling with the low E string pinky hammer on.
I took a short break and went back to the Monday warm up excercise and played through a few things a know, just to get some fun and confidence back.
After about 10mins I gave it another go. It took me about another 30mins but I can say I have the ascending part sort of under my fingers. The pinky hammer ons are a real beast for me. But I got through it and am better at pinky hammer on’s than what I was an hour ago!!!
I have decided that it is enough for today and will conclude my practice session today on that high note!!
I have marked the lesson as a favourite and will definately be back to slay the pinky pull of beast. But let’s take it one step at a time 😄

@Juhan, you have more that one win there. You sat down and did the daily lesson, that’s a win. But, you didn’t like how it went, to you did some other stuff. Guess what? That’s another win. Yay.
No wait, it not over, you actually go back to the pinky pulverizer and start to get the h’ons with that pinky. Now tell me that’s not a win. That’s huge.
Oh, no, but we are not done. You quit while your hand still worked. You knew you shouldn’t push it too far. That’s another win, yah.
But there’s still another one. You recognized that you will make more progress later. You just have to come back to it and you will get it better and better.
And I can tell you from personal experience that you are totally correct. I can do these pinky h’ons so much better than a year ago. In fact, I can now do the pinky p’offs. How’s that for insane?
