Excellent article! I agree that folks should not be afraid to change things around with their chops if they want to continue to progress. I like your analogy of the athlete who watches films of himself/herself in an effort to analyze what they are doing in an effort to improve. I always encourage my students to be very introspective in their practice and to adjust things with idea of developing or redeveloping a new form in their playing setup. Bob, thanks for sharing! See you Tuesday! –>>Nick Drozdoff
