    No it's not that and its not just this particular post . You got to understand Most users don't read great walls of text like that, they skim them.

    So if your asking a question or trying to make a point, it gets lost or over looked in all the words.

    Condensing your thoughts into a shorter, more concise post will allow readers to more easily parse the information which better serves you and others reading the posts and the replies that are made.

    I know what you meant Bowl, just messing around. I've skimmed my share of posts too, some I've just skipped all together. I was long winded I admit. I traded brief for trying to make sure I was accurate and answered thoroughly albeit too thoroughly. One of these days I'll find the happy medium.

    I'd like to apologize to Outerlimits for your serious post turning into this completely off subject goofery. Completely my fault, I asked for it. Please go ahead and mess up one of my serious posts, heck do two they are free.

    The shot is easier for the leagues that need more help. Senior, mixed or just beginner leagues. More serous leagues get more serous patterns. That is why the oil machine is programmable. Or be stupid and end up with a for sale sign out front.

    I don't yet know how to program the machine. At our center it doesn't vary at least not yet and only once in 3 years. All that's inside is a number pad and LED screen. I assume that's eventually one of my many up and coming lesson. So far I just know how to fill the cleaning fluid and oil, change the cloth roll, empty the dirty cleaning fluid and of course how to use it and read the errors that pop up on the screen.
