[12 piece bucket]

Does anyone think of this during the downstroke?

Homer Kelley gave a tip at one of his masters classes (which I heard on tape) that I really like and I use it all the time.

He was talking about the imaginary plane of glass in which your head sticks out and the base is on the plane line. He said to keep your right palm underneath and flat to that plane of glass on the downstroke.

This tip helps me ensure my first move is down and not out and over the top. If your right palm is underneath and facing that imaginary plane of glass, then it's impossible to come over the top.

As I think about this, it seems this focus on the right hand compliments the left hand karate chop.

ME LIKEY!!!!!
