The big wrist came with the big mouth at birth (doctor called it a "matched
pair" thats what go me interested in A and Bb Clarinets to begin with!).
While fighting Mike Tyson is not good for my embouchure (or the rest of my
face), you may have seen me do stupid Clarinet tricks on late night (I can
crush 4 Oehlers with that hand).

Seriously, I meant to say circumference! Thanks for the correction.
