to all:
Here's what I don't understand; I hear it said all the time "I only do this sport for my own enjoyment", yet in the next breath I hear criticism of how someone else is enjoying their aspect of the sport.
Here's what I do understand; this is human nature, and we all suffer from it from time to time. We also like, if there's a set of rules, that everyone follow 'em, at least to the extent that we ourselves, will.
Those two thing said; I'll again say that there really isn't a solution, outside of our own attitude, to this perceived violation of "The Spirit of The Game".
Also, I'm not stating this as a criticism of anyone that I'm not willing to apply to myself, as I am also guilty of the same. But it is true, that only I am able to control my enjoyment of the game.
Therefore, it is only me that I have to worry about, unless a safety violation is apparent, or there is a perceived violation of the Spirit of the Game. And once identified, it is only I who can rectify the situation by either direct interdiction, or by reporting the violation. The latter is not my style, so I will continue to infuriate my playmates by pointing out their failings and shortcomings when it comes to the spirit of the game. (As I've had done to me on occasion). :wink:
The best thing I've learned in CAS is that I've got a lot more to learn, and I can learn it in the least likely places.
'Cause while I may be competitive and a buckle chaser, I know where my wishes and capabilities differ. For as long as I've played this game, I ain't done a day of practice shooting, and without practice there is no improvement, let alone perfection. But what I will practice is try to be an example of the sport. {emphasis on try :grin: }
If I'm wrong, I'm also sure there are those that will point it out to me.
Thanks fer listening, shoot fast, miss less :grin:
