I purchased only the nest (nothing additional for my forefinger hold), and it keeps my whole hand in the right position

The only trouble I have with the pinkinest is that it morphs slightly upon heavy play, making it not hold in place as well as I had hoped, and guides my pinky to the wrong position if I'm not careful to re-place the nest occasionally

It works great to correct pinky position.

But by then, his positioning had improved and he no longer needed it

Still, one month after it's removal, he has excellent positioning and is no longer "all over the place" with his bow

Although, it is a lot heavier than the Pinkinest (which was the very reason I bought the Pinkinest) the Bow Hold Buddy will put each finger in a correct position, regardless to the size of your hand (because of their two, separate parts) and, the well has the shape to fit the pinky in a slight angle, as the pinky will naturally land on top of the Frog.

Perfect for reinforcing proper positioning.

It is training me quite quickly to naturally place my hand in quite an unnatural position

but once you customize it; This is excellent as a back stop for waving pinkie; also helps to steady thumb position

He has been trying to work on his positioning for a long time now with little success, lapsing back into less than desirable positioning as soon as he stops thinking about the position
