Bill, What if you wanted to catch a sequence of a

My argument was for sequences in motor sports. I made no mention of field
sports. I agree that football and basketball do not require a motor drive
and the one case
Since all I've shot is field sports, I'll yield to those of you with more
experience in motor sports. I recently shot a softball game with the *ist D
and was surprised how quickly I got my timing back after 40 years.
It's very rare that you'll be in a position to run off multiple shots of
