At least make your criticisms accurate then.


Ah I see why're you're getting worked up now.
I didn't make any criticisms, merely some observations.
Don't take everything so personal Smiley

Heavier is not better - I thought - is self explanatory.
If you go for a slinging session and start small and work your way up, after about 4 oz things start going shorter distances and your arm hurts more: ergo, heavier is not better Smiley

I did qualify my answer by pointing out that what you need is density and an aerodynamic shape and good technique.
Again - i thought - self explanatory Smiley
And again, just general observations not having a go at anyone Smiley

Not always personally to me. You do have a habit of summarily dismissing people (not only me, I've see you do it quite few times) with some curt little comment that virtually implies, "What a dumbass thing to say". It wouldn't be too bad if what you said was invariably correct but often it isn't, certainly not without some qualification, evidenced by the fuller explanation of  the "heavier is not better" comment.

Unless that's what i say IT IS NOT WHAT I MEAN.

Like I said it is never personal (with the very very rare exception).
If you wish to read meanings that i haven't said - I can't stop you doing that. But I'm a pretty direct person, if I think it's crap I'll say so Smiley
otherwise I'm just adding my tuppence worth to the mix Smiley

And I'm always right - unless I'm not (but that never happens Wink
