    Obliviously this will make him even better at all patterns because he will take the oil out of play. Now I'll never be able to beat him

    God you all have drawn me into posting on this nonsense again

    It won't necessarily make him better, but it will make him more consistent.

    But he will complain about how the air conditioner is effecting his shot instead of the oil pattern.

    We are on to him now. He is not 2handesniper from the east coast but is in fact Randy Barnes the shot put record holder from Charleston, West Virginia!! Wait..... isn't amyers from Charleston as well? This is getting more and more twisted as we go along.

    Truthfully not much. That's why most things are built near a river or in a valley, Which is why we have flooding issues
