I call both of these quite frequently. Both have timing which is forgiving for
beginners.

intermediate contras to introduce the hey to a group that includes many beginners. and/or
club square dancers.

more. I like Butter because the flow from ladies chain into a RH hey is great, and
because all the other calls are introduced earlier in most evening.
