    It's not just a signature line, I've worked for it.
    And i'm sure you deserve it. However there will be some shooters. Thankfully low in number, who one day throw your game due to some low voiced comment or snide remark towards you.

    Hell i've as i'm sure others have, towards another male shooter. Usually a novice who is on their game and the hot shot isn't. Throwing around, oh he's just lucky is all. Yeah lucky across the match while you're stomping your feet , pouting like a 5 yr old.

    The hard part is that I'm not just trying to 'game' it for the competitions. My aim is to learn everything & then apply it where & when I can. The competition is the best training.

    You even say when you've had a less than stellar day at the range. Few do so. There's been times the dirt is more scared of me than the targets are. We all have those days.

    Oh I pout a little. Ive kicked a few rocks. Cussed a bit too when I know it wasn't my best application & I've made a silly mistake.

    For example Ive rested my barrel on the vtac wall more than once in the same string, forgotten to close the bolt when reloading between barricades, or just plain picked a bad position & run out of time.

    Now I need to find a texas star to try.

    Go to any match for YOURSELF.

    Be safe and follow the rules, do your own thing otherwise, and ignore any idiotic criticism that might make it to your ear. Do not let that kind of stuff interfere with your personal progress at whatever speed that happens to be.

    If you're there with friends offering constructive advice, that's a whole different deal of course.

    At the crack of dawn this morning a mean little screaming squirrel learnt whose tree it isn't.
