gselkhunter, just a little bit,,,, I tip my hat to you and can only hope to someday be good enough that a call manufacture will want to sponsor me too. Not saying I would be able too if family and work conflicted, but just to be asked would be an honor. For the last couple years my biggest problem has been lack of time to practice. Right now with two very young kids at home, plus my wife going to school doing her classed on line (insert being quiet, or trying to be quiet at home) and with work (construction), even though its slow for me right now. I haven't been able to practice like I have wanted to. But I will even if I have to drive 5 minutes out in the country and practice. The show is almost a month away so its now or never for me. Again I don't expect to win, I don't have enough experience with competitions to know what the judges want to hear. But I also I don't want to look like a fool either, and with practice that will not happen. With some people it might even seem to look like that I know what I am doing so to speak.

lol, I do look foward to meeting you, and being able to learn from you and others as well. I'll second good luck to everyone.
P.S., gselk, you realy need to compeate in the best of the west, that way Audrey will maybe beat you this time.
