Bass drum tuning

Hey y'all!

I recently purchased a non-ported reso head for the first time and I'm having trouble finding the right "feel".

I like playing the beater "into" the batter head and I had no trouble getting the right feel and touch with a ported head but with this new head, I find it difficult to kill a lot of the rebound on the batter head.

Any tips or pointers on getting that feel?

Cheers.
 
Don't fight the rebound!! There is no need to bury the beater. A little practice and you will be able to utilize every bit of that rebound to the fullest, and have a rounder bass drum tone to boot.
