Josh was just clutch like few others. Dude had more timely hits than any other average hitter I recall. That may be P&G plus recency bias.

That's the truth, not bias. Don't forget his clutch fielding too.

That's why I was so high on John. if Josh was simply "clutch", John should be regularly productive.

Again, this is coming from some Monroe locals I know.

I just looked up some of his pics to see if there was anything funny... Apparently he's been pimpin'.

In all seriousness, all I've heard since he was in high school was how he was a better player then Josh. I thought he was the second coming of Tommy Tanks. He's got the look down at least.

I like them.

Bossier city has been putting them in.

I was skeptical about Leesville putting them in and besides the occasional overturned log truck they seem to work well there.

Correct... In a vacuum. You'll attempt to address that below...

quote:
The only thing that would reduce an object's time of fall (acceleration of fall) is air resistance (drag). So, if you drop two objects from a bridge with the same dimensions (say a 12 inch sphere), one weighs 1 lb., and the other weighs 100 lbs, they hit the ground at the same exact time.

150g and 180g projectiles don't have the same dimensions.

For the record, I'm only arguing for the sake of arguing. :lol:

My answer to the OP, inside of 150 yards, send it.

I don't have an answer other than I shoot a .270 and had something similar happen.

I usually shoot 150g rounds thinking I'm not shooting that far, lets send a heavier bullet. I messed up and grabbed a box of 130g rounds a year or 2 ago.

I worried about it so I went to target shoot the 130's and find out. They hit dead on at 100 yards.

I put a 150g in, still dead on.

Didn't seem to matter.

I'm sure if I backed out to 300+ yards there may be a difference, but my main stand has 2 shooting lanes. One is 100 yards, and the other is 150 yards.
