about 1.5 seconds on the string, maybe 8 seconds on the tip. You don't need a fast snap, you need good technique right after the snap. use gravity and stuff.

I do not see the problem, just doing another video with a full spin, I'm sure you can do ;). TA0 is like a hard teacher, but these are not the best teachers? ;D

Nice Justin!

I hope you realize that I am not the judge for the snap club . . . the club is managed by Pulp. I don't recall what exactly he is asking for (as always, I am given special waivers ;) ) He may be asking for snap start to lasso but, on the other hand, your previous video was probably already good enough :D

does that mean if i only had a spintastics hollowpoint i wouldn't qualify?

also, are you guys going to make me make a new video to be in your club? because that's not happening any time soon.

and does the stuff in this video starting at roughly three minutes and twelve seconds qualify me or should i look through my other videos and point at other things?
Peach Soda.

no wait, that's all lower half stuff... poo... i don't want to look at my stuff to find examples, it's all so slow and repetitive.

and what exactly would the requirement be as far as what's a good measure for a snap started bearing? or am i the only one that does that?
like I always say:dead monkeys don't fly on sticks.
