During lockdown I stopped playing guitar to personal reasons, I started again October and I realized some bad habits have crept up because of that, especially the way I played rhythm, my pick used to almost never fall, and ive been worried I lost the sweet spot for it I tried changing picks and I still struggled especially when palm muting, I really don’t know what’s going on, it feels like I have to constantly worry for it not to slip, only time it doesn’t is when im not aware but then I DO get aware and its a cycle. I never have this issue with lead playing
Edit: I should mention I start feeling my index finger hitting the strings,
Ps I use a Jazz pick Petrucci
First image is how it ends up slipping
Second image I thought is maybe when I play lead it might end up different looking before switching back to rhythm
this felt like walking on ice before the pick slips
