    Counting

    Good evening. Question tonight. Do you count in your head? (That is while hitting the bag) Always? Sometimes? Never?

        just when I am coordinating a new pattern and going slowly; once I get it in my ear, the sound is my guide.

          Nope. I can't count........that is why I married a math teacher.

          However, if you WANT to count, get the Newest model of The Speed Demon xt. It counts Everything!

          seriously, it does.

            I count how many bumps I get from an elbow strike. Such as a double bump, triple, quad, etc... Do what helps you. Good luck with your goals.
            Don't buy your speed bag from the same place you buy your tackle box.

              I think the question was confusing. Not counting total hits. More like counting moves. Ok going to do a basic triplet for 3 on each hand. move to a double for 3 with each hand leading... etc.

                Yes, I guess I do count sometimes when I'm punch-drumming. But mostly I just go, while subconsciously making sure I use each side equally, if this makes any sense.

                  Count it up!

                  SWFI - I sure do at times...It's a old habit for me from my "Drum Corp" days!

                    word to my brother. Three years of marching, drilling and parades all over Michigan. Always looking for that "one" (down beat).

                      I always try to use each side equally and yes I do count more like a sing count if that makes any sense

                        yes I count and try to use both sides equally most of the time.
