6/8 Fred - New Shooting Scale

[Kathleen and Fred]

It's been about two weeks since I updated Fred's chart - write them on a sheet then transfer.
With the numbers going the way they are, I've decided to get more aggressive with his shooting. I've posted the new scale on his chart, but I'll also list it here.
Those of you who have felt that I've been too conservative, may be happier with this approach - and it just might get up more greens! I'm ready to push it a little, but will try to test as often as I can, especially on days with low preshot numbers. (New parttime job keeps me away, but have to pay for those terrific vet bills from last February!)

Let me know if you think I should "tweak" this new scale:

50-99 wait 20 minutes, retest & shoot
100-149 = .4
150-199 = .6
200-249 = .8
250-299 = 1.0
300-349 = 1.2
350+ = 1.4

THANKS BUNCHES!

Hi Kathleen!

Good to see you back. Looks like Fred has had some lovely blues for preshots! The only thing that worries me about your scale is the shooting under 150. If you are going to be around to monitor, that might be an interesting experiment but if you are not, I would worry about him going too low. (We are never happy :mrgreen: first suggesting you be a little more agressive and then telling you it's maybe too much!). And I would plan on monitoring the first time you shoot the higher dose on that 150+ range just to see how low he goes midcycle.

Is there a time you could get a full curve - every 2-3 hours? I wonder if there is a green hiding in there midcyle, in the 4-7 range. If so, it would be nice to know when he is at his lowest. I definitely think the .8 and the one unit in that 200+ range is a good idea.

let me see if I can get in a good "curve" day this week. and I'll drop back on that under 150 shot.
thanks
