Re: trouble strumming
I have small hands and use three finger chords for chop chords. I don't play bluegrass all the time and play a couple of other genres too. I do use barre chords on guitar and uke too. One hint that helps on all but especially on mandolin is to reinforce your index finger with your middle middle finger and then use your ring and pinky to fret the other strings (if needed). YMMV. Good luck!
Thanks
Several mandolins of varying quality-any one of which deserves a better player than I am.......
