Some books call this pattern that he’s doing here is a “half drag” a true, three stroke ruff would be three alternating strokes two Grace notes followed by Main note, (R-L-R / L-R-L) 6:11 and in the old tradition, the grace notes have no time value. You only count the MAIN note, (the third note) so basically the three stroke ruff would be: right, left, right / left, right,left! the first two notes Are grace notes and the third note is the main note or the one that has a time value a lot of the contemporary books, though, show the grace notes, as being played with one hand, either two left or two right hand, Grace notes, while the main note is played with the opposite hand! It’s all a matter of interpretation I was taught a three stroke, ruff as three alternating strokes! But you could all do what you want! Practice both ways using both sets of sticking’s! Couldn’t hurt!!! 6:11

So would you not use the buzzed grace note at all then?

@@Histgyph ; well, I would personally avoid buzzing the grace notes as I like all my notes to be clean, distinct, but yeah, I’m sure you could buzz the grace notes as you increased the tempo to squeeze the stick, playing grace notes from the grip and you should get a nice buzz and then make the third note clean distinct tap couldn’t hurt try all the ways that’s how you improve!

@@nealsausen4651 I don’t know when it’s appropriate though. Before this video I had never heard someone say to do that, I’d always heard them called drags and been told to play them as a double stroke grace note before the main note.

@@Histgyph : I believe the “ancient” American rudimental drumming. Sometimes the drags were “slurred”, which is where the name drag came from. You would drag the grace note stick across the head to create a buzz effect!. I would imagine you use a buzz when you’re playing them really fast like a buzz roll. I don’t know I never really thought about it. Sometimes I buzz the grace note. Sometimes I play them distinctly , sometimes as two separate double strokes. It just depends on the effect I want that’s all just go by the effect you want. Don’t think about it too much.
