That's what I am missing in my technique

Afternoon Woods, Woodettes, porch sitters & points fitters. Good advice from Mr. Greg. If ya can't find any sand paper, one of the OL's emery boards she uses on her fingernails will work too.

Biker Bob, Dan & I are back from our 2 wheel tour of points of non-interest in the surrounding 100 mile radius. Heavy leather & a watch cap felt pretty good as it still hasn't gotten real warm.
