I suspect that if you're at all like me it's spit.
Surface tension of spit can lock a reed up.
So how do you not spit into a call?
They tried telling me and I ignored it.
It really pissed off some champion guy from Tennessee.
So I probably should share the spit epiphany I finally had.
Years ago I watched an RNT instructional video.
I watched the echo one too but for some reason I selected the church of Butch.
He said to say "hut hut hut" so my entire style was designed around cutting notes with my tongue on the back of my teeth. Spit-maker technique.
Tennessee tried telling me to try cook cook...
I thought that was stupid but boy was I wrong.
I got given a cutdown and instructions in my kitchen and guess what....to push a cutdown hard ...cook cook it.
That call taught me not to spit into calls.
If you touch your teeth with your tongue that's a no no.
I think...lol
