ball fitting for tuning hammer...Clyde

[Brian Trout]

I didn't know you were a 'south-paw' Clyde.?

I saw the 'Wonderwand' at the convention too.  I turned it on a few of the
pins in a few different positions, and I wasn't as convinced it would be
what I would want either.  Perhaps it has a lot to do with how a person
handles their tuning hammer.  I don't grab it in any one place for the whole
operation.  No death grip.  My hand kind of flows over the hammer all the
way from the very end, to being choked up all the way to the point where my
thumb is right next to the tuning tip.  But the time I've set the pin, my
hand is choked up on the hammer and ready to move it so easily to the next
pin.  I think it's kind of a personal thing that everyone sort of has to
learn to do themselves.

So, yes, I think it does matter how you use your hammer in the first place.

Just my take.
