why is the saddle on every guitar so uncomfortable as possible? why isn‘t there a nice resting point on every guitar?

It's called the pisiform bone. (No kidding. Sounds like a joke name but it's not.) My instinct is to want to anchor on the other side of the wrist (what's called "upward escape motion") but that makes it hard for me to mute. Nobody knows the picking troubles I've seen...

This is great. Thanks. Very useful. I've spent the past few weeks searching for lessons on RH picking. My technique was not good. Mostly floating + pinky. I was missing notes all the time. Adding this anchoring helps so much.

Im still using my pinky to anchor and it's embarrassing that I still do this.

Good tips. Thank you. Quite often when I’m picking fast the pick will miss the string altogether. I’m sure it’s because of poor anchoring.

I found this video on the recommendation of another video and this seriously made it easier to to be more accurate when picking singles strings! I’m learning adams song by blink 182 and I was having the problem of missing strings or skipping. Thank you so much for this!!! I never even thought about anchoring my hand I was always letting it float. Thank you so much!!!!
