    Yes...the Anderson's have great communication. Talking prevents indecision on certain balls especially balls down the middle. My wife says I'm a poor communicator so I'm working on it too!

    I learned a lot recording these matches. The wind was fierce and I need another external mic with wind protection. My camera angles are slightly askew which drive me nuts! Sueby Doo I feel is the strongest team in the league and should win all of their matches. I'm going to try and record another match next week. I sprained my ankle so I'm out for the month of May from pickle which is OK. I'm really enjoying recording and editing. I'm using Davinci Resolve to edit and there is so much to learn it boggles my mind! 8)

    I keep thinking about getting some of those Bluetooth microphones and clipping them on the net for better audio. Or with a camera angle like this, one on the near fence to the right and the other on the far fence to the left to get a cool stereo effect.

    I am a true 4.0 and I would destroy these people. You give 4.0's a bad name. Maybe I should move to these areas and I would be upgraded to a 6.0 in these parts. You should see what national 4.0's look like. They actually look like 4.5 in rec leagues. Rate yourself accordingly so you don't draw attention to yourself so people don't have to tell you you aren't what you say you are.
