A Euerka moment?

Eureka moments are cool and lots of fun to boot... but worth remembering, even Archimedes didn't make any money out of his so the best you can probably hope for is taking the pot in the next roll-up :D


On to your eureka moment Tashy,

I don't recall seeing a figure applied but lets say for arguments sake that a players optimum distance V accuracy is achieved at 90% of bladdering
(bladdering now being the accept measure for, giving it plenty, mullering it or swinging angry etc etc & generally spraying it everywhere)

I know I swing at about 83% of bladdering on the course (87% on the range) and that there's an exponential increase in anything >90% of bladdering being wet, lost, OOB etc

The trick then is getting the on-course 83% up to around 88/89% but being careful to keep it under the bladdering tipping point

Currently I peak in performance swinging 'mildly annoyed' but I don't want to be annoyed on the course all the way round which is why I generally hit below that and also why I like the new bladdering term ;)

Now if anyone has a 'my pro' who teaches how to improve this or uses the New Bladder Thinking (NBT) technique then let me know :D
