Introduction to Treble Bob Hunt


Treble Bob Hunt

Treble Bob Hunt has all the bells dodging in 1/2 up, 3/4 up, 5/6 up, lie behind in 6ths place, 5/6 down, 3/4 down, 1/2 down, lead. It is false (every change is repeated) but a great training tool. It is also short.

Bastow Little Bob

The treble continuously makes seconds and leads. All the other bells treble bob in 3/4 and 5/6 but when they get to the front they just lead – no dodging in either 1/2 up or down. Note the dodges in 3/4 and 5/6 happen when the treble makes its second blows in seconds place. Maintain whatever pattern you are in through the parallel/scissors dodges when both hands are treble bobbing but note you will change your pattern when one bell leads (under the treble) and the other bell dodges.

Forward Minor

Forward is a principle in which all the bells ring the same work including the treble. The work consists of treble bobbing in 1/2 and 5/6 with Kent places up and down in 3/4. The places are made back/hand with the two blows in fourths are over the same bell. It has plain hunt coursing order so the ropesight will be familiar. It provides a stepping stone to build up towards Kent Treble Bob Minor.
