When I make a fist my pinky sticks almost straight out with just a slight bend (osteo arthritis). I’ve tried many methods to try and get it to bend but nothing has worked, and surgery is not an option, not now at 73. Anyway what I can offer is do what you can do and try to find other options, and don’t fret,,,lol

I say jump in with both feet, and embrace the lesson, there will be those moments that you will feel good and times the frustration will try to win. Embrace it move on to the next lesson and when you come back you will be amazed at the difference in your playing. This system really works. I am 72 and never played an instrument in my life, now I have a little over a year and a half behind me and am enjoying my guitar journey.
Good Luck and welcome

Hello Bayvu2, I started playing a year and 4 months ago. I started with a variety pack of different thickness of picks and have worked my way to 1.4mm triangle pick and love it. Took a bit to get used to it but the sound is rich, and have three areas to pick from.
