Genetics? My dad was raised Quaker, ran away at 15 to join the army and was not religious all my life. (Mom was the baptist) But he was a great spoon player.   It may not be the rhythm it is the grip. I am going to start a thread on how to hold bones, finger placement, arm and wrist movement, how not to knock innocent bystanders senseless with flying musical missiles. Yes I've searched no real direction on how to.

Going to say goodbye to this thread with a great big hug to all who have posted here for aiding my understanding of you good people.
