No ... not "one". It was more than one.
Your chronic whining appears to have no bounds.

Word for the day:
Egotistic - Egotism is the drive to maintain and enhance favorable views of oneself, and generally features an inflated opinion of one's personal features and importance. It often includes intellectual, physical, social and other overestimations.
The egotist has an overwhelming sense of the centrality of the 'Me', that is to say of their personal qualities. Egotism means placing oneself at the core of one's world with no concern for others, including those loved or considered as "close," in any other terms except those set by the egotist.
Characteristics
Egotism is closely related to "loving one's self" or narcissism - indeed some would say “by egotism we may envisage a kind of socialized narcissism”. Egotists have a strong tendency to talk about themselves in a self-promoting fashion, and they may well be arrogant and boastful with a grandiose sense of their own importance. Their inability to recognize the accomplishments of others leaves them profoundly self-promoting; while sensitivity to criticism may lead on the egotist's part to narcissistic rage at a sense of insult.
Egotism differs from both altruism - or acting to gain fewer values than are being given– and from egoism, the unremitting pursuit of one's own self-interest. Various forms of "empirical egoism" can be consistent with egotism, but do not necessitate having an inflated sense of self.

Raise your hand if you had mistaken this post as a comparison to Batdragons DD. Raise your hand if you just claimed someone purposely deleted this post.Excellent CP! Spatial awareness of the hands is important. Taking the hands back is not as important as leaving the hands in the relative starting location - trying not to take them with you - while raising/lowering. If you allow this to happen naturally, it gives the appearance of "pulling back on the scap". 2 very different actions IMO - passive vs. active. I'm a firm believer that in order to control the barrel and to always be in tune with the sweet spot of the barrel - the eyes and bottom hand have to ALWAYS be in tune with each other.
Here's another pretty good hitter to check out.
See how it works? Things get way over-baked and sold as truth.
It's fun exposing buffoons.

I know, right? Without logic and good common sense, you would think the barrel magically get's to the ball all by itself. But we are not that dumb. In fact, we can see just how early the hand direction is called upon and leads the body to facilitate. HUMMM
No time to drop and drag when you focus on the right thing.
