Hello,

I am pretty new to the violin. Ive been playing for a little over a month now. I am wondering how violinists always bow the right string without touching the other adjacent ones.

eg. Bond, they are always flicking their hair and moving around. How do they know where the string is and stay on that string?

Is it just years of experience and muscle memory?
Thank you.

Yeah, it's just something you get used to.

I get confused when I change violins and the bridge is slightly different from mine. It changes the positions of the strings.
