I have always held the pick between my thumb and my index and middle finger. I felt like it was better because the pick would spin less, or I wouldn’t drop it as much. My grip when strumming was more relaxed. Now, I fear that maybe I should make the effort to learn the grip you’re describing. When playing around with it today, I can flat pick better. Who knew? Not me. But strumming is kind of clunky. I hate the idea of starting over. But, maybe it will be worth it in the end. Advice, feedback?
