Hello Ryan. These are lovely Taylor bells Not being a Devon call change ringer, dk you always rung up, do call changes then ring down? or do you ring, set the bells then rimg again. Also unlike method ringing where youring different methods plus different amounts of changes , twi popular lengths being a 1260 or 5040 ,what is the maximum length of time Devon call changes ring. Also what would be the heaviest tenor ypu could pull up in peal, i know you often have 3 or even 4 on the tenor.

@Steven_Rowe In competitions we always ring up, directly into chanes and then ring down, on practice night we may not. We certainly tend to ring up once or twice an evening and stand the bells the rest of the time. There are lots of different variations to call changes, the most prevalent are the 60 on 3rd's (66 changes) or the 120's that some towers use, we tend to go for shorter, more musical touches. There have been 2 or 3 full call change peals (5040) but this takes twice as long as a method peal would, simply because we don't change hand and back stroke. I hope this helps.
@ryantrout6094Ай бұрын
@Steven_Rowe As for the heaviest Tenor rung up in peal single handedly, I've personally rung up 23cwt, but that bell had recently been rehung and went pretty well, I also had some very good ringers in front of me, you need a good treble ringer. I know that the old Tenor man at South Tawton was a large chap and didn't like having a strapper, he would put up 25cwt bells on his own and do it well, alot depends on your weight/strength but also technical ability. These days, around a ton is enough, but I always feel if you want a really good rise, then anything around 19cwt and above requires a strapper.

@@ryantrout6094 thanks Ryan, all good info. I actually saw a video just a few moments ago where a lady was talking to you regarding Devon call changes. I know my dad called it cartwheel and in London we used to try it for some fun. When done properly it sounds amazing. I have often wonder could a method ringing band do method ringing with closed leads and the perfect uniform striking It would be a challenge, especially on methods where the tenor was turned in.
