Thanks. So simple and so natural it has to be right. I can still hear Gunny Floyd using the same explanation in 1958. He thought I had a natural God given ability to do everything the hard way. Best advise I ever had, "listen to the music and get out of your own way, son." I was a very proud 18 year old country boy with those expert rifle and pistol badges. That advise has worked ever since in everything, although I am still instinctively trying to overthink the easy way to this day. My operative word is whoa! then go. A lot of instructors are still teaching thumb up making thumb safety release an extra step rather than automatic.

The sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up.
