Does anyone elderly like me (73) have problems with a crooked my finger. My middle finger twists toward the pinky and when i play fast parts (like chromatics), my middle finger tends to slip off the valve, I tried to buy something to straighten the finger, but it would not work on my hand. I guess i have to live with it. Just wanted to know if anyone else has had this problem

For me, it's my 1st finger, but I can usually manage it fine.
I knew one person who glued a thin layer of cork to the top of each finger button. Might help!Dave Werden (ASCAP)
