kevinwholmes says: 2/2/2011 6:25:45 AM Your avatar picture suggest you're left-handed.
	inniepie says: 2/2/2011 7:02:32 AM ahhh thats because I have a Mac and I keep forgetting to flip the photos! but I am recovering from a broken right arm, so at the moment I am left-handed...however I will still try to play my instruments as a right-handed person

	mojo_monk says: 2/3/2011 4:40:37 AM Sorry to leave you hanging Lyndsay. Check out the '2ftl patterns' image linked at the right side of this group page. It's kind of like an upside down clawhammer stroke with the drone being struck with the index (or middle) finger on the first string. Give it a shot and let us know if you have any questions. I also have a web page dedicated to 2 finger thumb lead banjo linked on my homepage (below my name). Good luck!
	inniepie says: 2/3/2011 7:07:44 AM Thanks I will!
	mainejohn says: 2/6/2011 4:41:06 AM I'm in the same boat. My index finger doesn't work, therefore my middle finger is the only one with a pick
	inniepie says: 2/6/2011 5:09:12 AM I don't even know if I have TWO working fingers at the moment...
kevinwholmes says: 2/10/2011 6:57:16 PM Lyndsay, When or will your hand recover?
	inniepie says: 2/10/2011 7:53:17 PM Oh hopefully in a year or so....80 %
