pinky excersises


i want to practise my pinky because it seems like my pinky doesn't hit the string well (or you can say my pinky is weak,..i guess)

recently, i'm practising my pinky like this:

---5-6----------------5-6-
--------5-6------5-6------
-------------5-6-----------
---------------------------
---------------------------
---------------------------

i use this by alternate picking and hammer-ons..and i do the opposite, starting from 6th fret followed w/ 5th fret, and also use alternate picking and pull-offs...
do you guys think that ex.is enough to build the strength of my pinky?..any reccomended excersises?..

thanks a lot..and SORRY w/ my bad english...^__^

Re: pinky excersises


try doing all 4 fingers up and down, across the strings as well, i found by just doing a one similar to yours didnt quite make it stronger.
Maybe try different patterns of 3 fingers as well.
