A Pane in the Glass Podcast
"The Science Behind Brushing"
This episode of "A Pane In The Glass Podcast" is based upon a document by a curler, who has been there, done that and has many accomplishments to his name, notably a world senior curling championship. That curler from Saskatchewan is Eugene Hritzuk. His document is entitled "The Science Behind Brushing" and is widely available from a variety of sources. It's not lengthy and has excellent illustrative diagrams. I strongly urge you to get a copy! If you can't find a copy on line, send me an email (coachbill@hay.net) and I will forward a copy to you!
At the conclusion of my interview with Eugene, I provide a personal perspective with some ideas for you and your team to do your own testing of the system you might employ to be the best that you can be!
