Interesting thoughts K. I think that we are broadly in agreement.

I would also like to play the game that you play but I must admit that I am no good at it.

Like most AFCs I played the nice guy game and got a few crumbs.

Recently, I have upped my game a bit but I still play a different game from you. A conversion rate of numbers to lays of 80% is impressive, very impressive. However, as you say yourself you are probably allowing some opportunities to slip away. That is not necessarily a bad thing, after all there are only 24 hours in the day and 7 days a week and we have a lot of other stuff to do in this time as well as getting lays. So if a few fish get away then as long as you are not going hungry then it really is their loss not yours.

I think your advice is spot on for night game in the environment you mentioned. Day game has some common elements to night game but it is a very different game. For one there is the issue of logistics.

I tend to start with day game and then move on into the night time situation for the f -close.

I would still stick by my earlier advice to the OP.

btw what are booty calls?
