Group a (Plain Bob Minor)

Progressive Touches

Getting Started

The Plain Bob Minor page has notes on getting going with calling touches.

• Calling Pattern touches
• Observation Bell touches.

The above touches are replicated at the start of the Group a collection.

Ringing 1-2

Speciic touches have been created for 1-2 to practise:

• Bobs work
• Singles work

Ringing "inside" pairs.

5-6 is generally thought to be easier than 3-4 as most often 6 is the observation bell and hence often is not affected by calls. Also notes on the value of touches with a repeating pattern for 5-6 are posted at Repeating Pattern touches. Touches

• 17
• 20
• 25

are all 720s employing different repeating patterns for 5-6.

Touch 20 gives good practise at singles for bells 2, 3, and 4, 5-6 being completely unaffected by the singles.
