    It's all good, really. I'm really not that great a shot FWIW. Mister T won the match and has numerous times now. I started out poorly, figured out what was wrong and ran a couple decent strings. As Rumbler has said regarding this game, you can't miss fast enough. The hardest part is to slow down and put accurate fire on the pins and that is 90% mental. You start missing when you get a head of yourself, get in a hurry, start worrying about the other guy, and start 'thinking'. Just relax, put the front sight on the target, assuming your gun is sighted in properly (my issue last week), prep your trigger, and fire. Have a great day. Jim

    You know you're wrong, but I appreciate your desire to be right. It makes me feel like a nice guy, like cheering in the stands at the Special Olympics.

    LOL, but I know I'm right. Like you, I cannot believe this is actually a thing for conversation. I cannot fathom how otherwise intelligent people think you can somehow impart force on something without an equal/opposite reaction.

    Is it like a Super Mario power up star or something?
