A man should not be measured by the mistakes that he makes, but by how he learns from those mistakes and what adjustments he makes after them.
But I’ll tell you, if I was in their class, completing at the level they do, and had that stress load to deal with, I’d be pretty animated myself. That is a highly competitive environment and that’s how they make their living. You perform or you don’t get paid. They have families and bills that depend on them making money, not just having fun. It’s like working strictly for commission, but at a different level. Your not just working against yourself, your working against a lot of other guys gunning to take your commission from you.
I really seen that when the Elite guys were in Alabama a couple of years ago. KVD of course was a class act, as where all of the guys, but I could since the stress in Skeet Reese. He was cool and everything, but you could really see it written on his face.
I admire how these guys handle themselves for the most part because they have a tremendous amount of stress to deal with and if they lose their cool from time to time I sure ain’t going to hold it against them.
