The fight starts before the armor, before you pick up your stick, and before you step onto the field. It begins with an individual that is devoted to himself and understands the gravity of taking up arms against his fellow man.

Once a month I try and make it down to a southern practice, on the first Wednesday: Mid-Willamette and the third Tuesday: CDV. The Tuesday practice was added into rotation to give me more helmet time, but also allows my room-mate to spend some quality time with his knight; Who tries to come up our way on the second and fourth Thursdays of the month. I'm sorry to say my presses are progressing slowly nonwithstanding although I've reached the heart of the matter at last.....instead of just throwing shots maybey locating targets and trying to hit thoses would be more productive. While fighting one fight for five minutes can be considered a wonderful thing, when it looks like two middle school boys flaying about it is certianly not. I need to work on incorporating footwork with shot combinations and switching my mentality from halting practice fights to a more serious tourney mode if I want to keep up my game. On an up note it was good to have actually spent some time dominating another fighter, with the caliber as high as it is at the monday and thursday practices I have a tendancy to get frusterated.

also...metal plates on my arm armor = awsome.
