Are there any terrain features that make "his side" better, or just seems like dumb luck? Just curious. If there is an obvious advantage to "his side" (i.e. food, terrain, etc.), he should ease up and give you a fair shake.

And to think of all the derogatory jokes made about brothers in law. On what merit?
