I also want to note that this style is just what works for me.  There a few ways to hold and play scratchers.  I also lift my soundboard off the striker on each return.  Some people don't.  You will see several ways they are played on YouTube. Mess around and find what suits you best.

David's videos are the ones I watched to learn how to run a scratcher.
