Pick or No pick

When it comes to guitar many people use a pick, but is a pick right for your style of play? Personally, I do not use a pick but many people that I know who also play guitar do use picks. Choosing to use a pick or not really depends on your style of play. If you prefer to play chords, then you should definitely use a pick. Especially if you are a beginner as it can hurt your fingers in the way you have learnt to strum. However, if you play finger-style or tab, it really depends on how well you can use a pick quickly.
