Hoss Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Why would rolled up long sleeves be illegal, why would you wonder that? I suppose you think folks shooting B Western should not roll up ther jeans like John Wayne did in his movies? My thinking was as long sleeves are required, I figured the rule makers wanted them down. I guess I wuz wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Shapiro Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Back to the question, yes the rules are generally enforced. As usual, there are some exceptions based on injury or other infirmaty. Asking questions is fine. Just make sure to wear your asbestos shorts just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red River Ray SASS#33254 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I've never saw a shooter anywhere near tha top that wasn't toeing tha line! Bar none, even tha Flordia guys . Tha closer you get to 1st tha stronger tha microscope. Course if Campo had came in 155 outa 158 I doubt this post woulda been here. I had a guy ask my Ex wife once, why does Ray wear chaps an such? Answer was cause someone told him he could not win wearing them! If Sass did away with clothing rules 95% would dress tha same an tha other 5% would bitch no matter what.

Cpt Dan Blodgett, SASS #75655 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'm somewhat sure SOG applies to how a competitor shoots a stage. If he tries to "game" it in such a way as to gain a competetive advantage THAT is a Spirit of the Game penalty. I don't see rolled up sleeves fitting this description. (But I've been wrong before.) Perhaps his not getting heatstroke due to extra cooling gives him an advantage over those who kept sleeves rolled down and became heat casualties Of course I am being rediculous. If the rule book says long sleeve shirts, with sleeves rolled down and cuff buttoned we have an issue should one roll up their sleeves, stating competitor must wear a long sleeve shirt does not prevent one from rolling up said sleeves.

Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I've never saw a shooter anywhere near tha top that wasn't toeing tha line! Bar none, RRR I'll have to disagree with ya on that one pard. My desire to play the game witin the rules has always outweighed my desire to win. When I started my mentor Fireball told me you have to figure out what you are willing to do to win. He told me some examples of things he refused to do that were borderline. I adopted his mindset and have not regretted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairshake Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I understand what RRR was thinking when he posted that answer Deuce. I think he meant that the top shooters are always going to be correct with the rules. I also agree with you on your posting and I would also say that shooters such as yourself have always obeyed the rules from day one. If you want to beat a top shooter then don't go looking for a rule breaker. Make yourself better the same way they did. Work as hard as possible by Perfect Practice!! If you have to resort to complaining then you will never understand. Later Fairshake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knot Hardly Dunn, SASS 43113 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 While winning might be important how you win is more important. How you lose is perhaps most important of all. This is not a game in which you beat anyone. This is a game played between your ears and where you may place determined by your natural talent, how hard you train and wether the range angle whizzes in your fire lock.
