You might make thirds at a bob, unaffected. If not, you will do one of the following. Once you have mastered this, here is the work at a single:
| What to do | When to do it | |
|---|---|---|
| Early Thirds Go up to thirds place (one other bell then the treble below you) and back over the same two bells to lead. You become the hunt bell. |
At a bob or bingle, when you pass the treble in 3rds place. | 45312 54132 51423 15432 14523 41532 45123 54213 |
| Double 4-5 Dodge Down After lying behind, drop into 4ths for one blow, then back to 5ths, repeat and then go in. The treble is the first bell on the way in. |
At a bob or single, when you pass the treble in 5ths place (you were the hunt bell). | 45312 54132 51423 15432 14523 41532 45123 54213 |
| Double 4-5 Dodge Up As you reach the back, drop into 4ths place for one blow, back into 5ths, repeat and then lie behind before coming in. The last blow at the back is over the treble. |
At a bob or single, when you pass the treble in 4ths place. |
