    This is like watching my high-school band director explain how to hold a stick. He had NO idea. Tried to get us to hold the stick AT the balance point because "that's how my baton works."
    I expressed that he was incorrect and he took exception to this, one word led to another and he threw me out of the class.
    This same director insisted he be called a Doctor even though he never completed his doctorate.
    I eventually told him to sit on a cactus and revolve and went and played with a nearby college band instead.
    I wasn't the only one who did this.

    2:17 -- interestingly enough, in the pipe band world, using the non-dominant hand for the "traditional" portion of the grip regardless of being right or left-handed is substantially more common (I don't play in a Scottish pipe band, but my friend and a former DL instructor both do :P)

    I started out learning the matched grip, because I went with concert percussion at first. Only years later when I started marching I had to use traditional grip and my left hand has limited stick height without moving the elbow in too far. I can get to about 45° angle up with the left stick. Is there anything I could do to improve that?

    • @dannyledrums4116

      Honestly my best thing could be have a drumline coach correct your grip and help you position your fingers
      And then play like that and get used to the feeling
      Because when I was working on traditional grip it was super awkward when I got it corrected
      Eventually I got used to it and yeah
      If you can’t find a drumline coach, ask your band director if you don’t have a band director well then
      Get a marching snare drummer friend
      Or or or, post a video of you on the r/Drumline subreddit and they’ll make comments that could help you

    My school teaches traditional grip=lesser than matched and not worth learning it so i’m the only one in my district who knows it because my drumline instructor was in drum corps and he taught me it along with middle finger isn’t like the pointer but it’s slightly over the stick but pointer thumb and ring/pinky r same as yours

    always so surprised that any of this means anything at all to wether or not a drum is hit "correctly", if youre not sat on a horse or parading with drum on a side strap or harness thing, i change grip maybe if for reach or velocity or if a ride pattern is hard one way, flip it (traditional right/left/either hand sometimes, or have shaker in hand as well as a stick, play a bodhran with a tipper which seems freak everyone out, and learnt with hands fingers first so technique of holding never seemed relevant to what sounds were possible

    I don't get the finger positioning on the left hand for 'traditional grip'. Wrapping the index finger around the stick like a 'hook'? Also the fingers on the right hand wrapped around the stick like a baseball bat? Goes directly opposite the way I was taught and how I've played with traditional grip for years. The key is to maintain fluidity yet firm control choking the stick with wrapped fingers is not the way to do it.
