I have added two entries about clawhammer techniques for playing jigs to the Tab Archive.  There is a 15-page PDF with tips, an exercise and tabs for 10 often-played jigs.  I have created two entries because the Hangout appears to allow only 10 attachments to an entry and I have 11 MP3 files for the tabs.  



Part 1 contains the full PDF and MP3 files for: Jig Exercises, Cliffs of Moher, Connaughtman's Ramble, Kesh Jig, Morrison's Jig and Out on the Ocean.

Part 2 contains the full PDF and MP3 files for: Road to Lisdoonvarna ,Saddle the Pony, Star Above the Garter, Swallowtail Jig and Tobin's Jig.

Thanks David. I have been hearing more folks playing jigs clawhammer and this is will be a big help to those wanting to learn. It also provides insights into how you think about the technique and those insights are revealing. I've always grabbed a flat pick for jigs to get that added drive but this is a much mellower approach sound wise.
