Default I'm fencing again....

h: Haven't picked up a weapon in 10 years. Basically since the end of fencing season my highschool year.. which was literally 10 years ago, February..
The basics are there in terms of what I need to do... but man am I slow and rusty!!! I've had a few lessons in the past two weeks.. and had my first bout yesterday against a Junior in highschool... he won 5-1. h:

I ARE TEH RUSTY!!!

some people just dont like em... i love em... but i can respect the opposite end

i will say though, dont knock it till you try it... a stressful day can be relieved in about 30 seconds by blowing up watermelons. plus its a great training tool for precision, accuracy and even concentration / meditation. the concentration it requires to be able to consistently and accurately aquire quality shot placement at long range isnt something you learn over night and must always keep up on
