Lisa, This the best tutorial on chucking I've seen. The steps of carefully watching, feeling, closing eyes, slow down strums make so much sense! So perfect! I love the song choice!

I'm so glad! I have a private student in that age category and she is learning so fast, and doing a lot of old songs. Wagon Wheel is one of her favorite songs - which is covered in part 2 of this lesson on chucking.

Very good Lisa! I can't wait for the sequel "Son of Chuck". The way I strum I find it very easy to Chuck. I actually have my pointer finger hanging out in mid air. I hold the tips of my thumb and my middle finger together as if I was holding a pick. Down strums I used my middle finger and the up strokes with my thumb. I then am able to chuck with either the down or up strum. PS . Did you want your location posted? I see it at the bottom left of the video. I don't think I've ever seen that on anybody's video before.

Yippee. I am now at the point of more often than not hitting the chuck. In fact, I would say 80% of the time I am there. The only concern I have is that it doesn't seem to be as loudly as you achieve. Next time we have a jam (early June I think when I am back in the UK), I shall choose a song to lead where I can do the chuck and ask you if I am loud enough (and probably even if I am doing it right!)?

@TheUkuleleFool 2 жыл бұрын
Sounds like a good plan. I know that it took me awhile to get the chuck to sound good and loud all the time. Cathy just shared an a-ha moment from the Build Me Up Buttercup lesson - When you chuck the more fingernails you have scraping the strings, the louder it sounds.

interesting. You don't seem to be twisting or turning your wrist when you strum or chuck? you are keeping your wrist/arm straight and moving from the elbow? I usually strum by twisting/turning by my wrist? which is the correct way to strum - your wrist doing the work or your elbow with a straight arm?
@TheUkuleleFool
@TheUkuleleFool 4 жыл бұрын
I don't twist my wrist. With any repetitive motion it is best to rely on big muscles. The entire forearm is used. Elbow with a straight arm is the the way to strum that is going to get you the most bang for the buck. The only time my wrist gets involved is in a tremolo strum.

I totally get that. It takes persistence. I remember when I learned to chuck and I spent weeks just getting it to sound right most of the time. Get your favorite beverage, sit down and watch something dumb on TV and just chuck away for 20-30 minutes to get it engrained into your muscles.
