"Rich it is very important to listen because your tongue can make you deaf" - Jim Bradshaw
We need to constantly revisit vital areas to Jim's Matchup concepts.
What better way than looking back at KEY races that showed perfect examples of what the man was showing me at the time. Then have Hat HIMSELF lay out in direct fashion what he did!
I have scanned the entire Hat Check. This was very cool doing as it brought back so many memories of how things were when he would be teaching me!
This first example ties in beautifully with the video you all watched about the
1) FPLR spot play.
2) Early/ote
3) 1c pace of race and positioning. For clarity the Hat speaks in fifths of a second while the pp's shown are tenths
As a setup for everyone this thread was posted appx 10 months into Jim's almost 2 years teaching me. What you will see is KEY stuff man and it is from Jim's mouth to your ears ok?
What I have done is cleaned up the thread so you will see only the pp's,result chart,Jim's description of what he did (and it is darn clear folks) and my reply to a Shoe question that I think might help some folks.
Scroll the pp's twice (same steps man.Repeated over and over ok?)
Read Jim's workup SLOWLY. Stop. Walk away.
Come back a few hours later. Go right to Jim's workup.
Then scroll pp's with his words guiding you.
Go back and re read Jim's words.
