Topic: two questions about rest stroke

i'm now learning this playing method and my main problem is that i can't use my ring finger well and maybe it's because there's no need to use it in this playing method. what do u think?
and the last thing i wanted to ask is that isn't it better to use free stoke method while playing fast arpeggio songs and difficult piano songs?
thanx.

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking.

Re: two questions about rest stroke

Hi Mhdmhd,

I too do not understand what you are asking, for one do do not say which hand you are having problems with, and as I have never heard of the 'Rest Stoke Method' it could well be a form of contraception for all I know lol

PS On re-reading this I just want to point out I am not trying to make fun of you. I know you are asking a serious question and want a straight answer but I am just laughing at myself for my lack of understanding.
