In this how to play Clawhammer Banjo lesson video I will reveal not one but two big secrets!
These two amazing secrets were GE game changers when I was learning how to play Clawhammer Banjo and I know they will help you too! (to?)

The Secret # 1 - Really bend your index finger when you are striking the string for the `Boom` part in Boom Chick-a (about 45 degrees or so)

The Secret # 2 - Use your middle and or ring finger if you are struggling for the `chick` part in Boom Chick-a (just like index lead banjo players do; like Pete Seeger and Derroll Adams)

As a bonus I explain Bump-a Ditty or some call it Boom-a-Chick-a rhythm.
I prefer to call it, Cock-a-Doodle-Do
