What Are Some Good Easy Bow Excersizes?
I need help with bow control as most ppl do for violin. I’m a real beginner so anything simple is fine. I need like an exersize for keeping my bow straight & not going evrywhere when I pull it down. Like how it goes outwards when I pull it, instead of just down.

Do not think of pulling the bow. You are always pushing the bow. On a down bow, push the hand away from you in a straight line. The line is from the bridge area to a point away from you. Do not swing your arm. Push the wrist in that straight line, until your arm is straight.
Up bow, you push in a straight line back toward the bridge.
all of this is easiest to learn when done slow.
