G-ManBart Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Dude, you rock! GM is just one solid classifier away!

Funny, I'm the exact same way. That's why when my name was at #7 at the end of the first day of the open nationals I did a print screen and saved it to a word doc. I have to take small steps you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPatterson Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Get out and shoot more instead of working and it will be yours next year. That urge to beat a friend is a big motivator too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can very comfortably say that I have either won or finished in the very top at all Area / State / Section matches that I have entered. That's proof enough for me. Last year's Nationals had 5 stages in the top 16. This year was poor. Two in the top 10. Regardless, I've proven it. Sound to me like you shouldn't be in the top 10?
