1. Have a plan, stick with it and don't go to war on a single target. 2. Have a backup plan. The first plan almost never works out. 3. If first 2 plans don't work out, shoot at everything really fast.
 
Those stages were a cat lady and that was the shortest par time I've seen yet. I watched two pro shooters time out. If anything hung you up on 1 or 7 you were out!

Kinda the same on the am side. Inexperience was my worst enemy, especially dealing with short par times. Yet last year I was around 30% and was 60% this time, so it's not all bad. The bad thing about shooting first with staff, is you don't get to see other shooter's pitfalls. I timed out on two stages, one due to ammo malfunction (just barely), other due to poor planning and inexperience, (golf stage). Golf Games on the am side was probably the match breaker or maker.
All in all, this match made me better. And all the Boomershooters I saw just tore it up! As a whole, we would make a formidable team! Well, maybe not with me, but low score usually gets dropped anyway, lol!

There are definite advantages to watching the top guys shoot a stage. I didn't win the big shotgun stage because I was scared to be as aggressive as I wanted.
