And that is why I no longer compete. In 2005-6 I won tons of "Bests" & "Tops" at NVPS - but to do it I found myself shooting for judges rather than myself. The only good thing that came of it is that it gave me an opportunity to quit on top with no regrets and the satisfaction of knowing that I could compete with the best (because NVPS is the best).
