Ive been at this for 20+ years. I remember those days. I noticed I screwed up because I was rushing things. I fixed my problems by slowing down. Its amazing how much difference just a few sec. or even a min. can make. Some times you have to stike while theiron is hot without thinking (Like the Pink Floyd lyric there

). Other times you need to wait a considerable amount of time. it all comes with practice and making the mistakes you speak of. Another suggestion, practice like you hunt. If you can get a 3d, it makes the world of difference.
