To All:
The good news is that I am ahead of about half the field. The bad news is that I am behind the other half of the field. I did hit one good one. I had several good prices in or very near the lead at the 1/16th pole. Search parties are still looking for them. As you well know, it can be heartbreaking at times.
There is DEFINITELY a core group who does well. Last years winner, Ron Rippey, was in 2nd place when I left. I feel that I am gaining very valuable experience for the coming year. I feel that with alittle improvement I can get to the next level of playing.
I definitely made a few bad decisions. For example, The very first race of the day was from Tampa. I liked the 6. I thought to myself that I only have 7 bullets and I better save them for later. Naturally, the 6 won at 8-1. What was I thinking? That winner would have put me right in the hunt for the top prize. That is how close the scores are except for the few at the top.
Ah, there is always tomorrow.
Gary
