It is a question for anyone reading not you jackass you would probably deliberately give me bad advice
BHank, I would have been happy to offer some tips and started to do so.
In all modesty, I have a lot of useful experience from decades competing and judging, etc
No offense , but I know you won't really listen to me or anyone else unless it fits into YOUR existing view.
You went ahead and decided to compete this weekend against my advice.
Ok, fine , but if won't take my advice on when to compete I'd waste OUR time giving any more "help".
I wish you the best, but you're on your own now.
