In section2 where you list the notes under each chord, why is the 5 draw (F) not listed under the 1 chord? (Top of Pg2 on pdf)

V - IV - I Study4
Hi David,
On the V - IV - I study, I'm having real difficulty replicating the sound you get when playing 3 notes at a time for example on licks 12, 13, 16, 18?
Do you have any further tips on what you are doing i.e are you just slapping and pulling off the harmonica or do you actually blow and draw the note? Is there a particular previous lesson you'd suggest I revisit to practice the technique?
Thanks,
Ravi

Hello Ravi. I am using
Hello Ravi. I am using standard slaps (Tongue Block Study 2) and Pulls (Tongue Block Study 3)... give those lesson a look.
Hello Ravi. The I chord is not the focus... it's the V and the IV, then resolving to the I Chord. Typically you would resolve to 2 draw (and occasionally the 6+), but every now and again, another chord tone (and not typically the flat-7th). For practical purposes, you'll just use the 2 draw and 6+ for the exercise.
