Hi Bill! Thanks for posting all these details and sorry for the delay in seeing this. Brendan pointed out the “getting started” section of the site:
Have you gone through that, and watched all the stuff in it yet? Can you get through most of the checklist items on the bottom of each page?
If you haven’t worked through that yet, it is our best recommended starting point for everything we talk about. A lot of basic mechanical stuff is covered. Your current technique is one of the ones we cover in the “Intro to Picking Motion” broadcast in a fair amount of detail. In the second broadcast, “Crosspicking With the Wrist” we expand on that first broadcast with a little more detail on how the wrist works mechanically. It is totally relevant to what you are doing - you’re using the “Andy Wood” style of uwps wrist motion and it uses a specific arm position and type of wrist motion which we’ve been calling the “2 o’clock” motion. Again, the first two videos spell this out more clearly.
For now, I know these videos are long and it may help to watch them in sections. We’re working on splitting up this material in a chapterized format in the future.
If you already watched that stuff, and you still have questions about your technique, then that’s our fault! We need to make things as clear as possible. Let us know.
