Apples to oranges, you can’t have a “standard” and be a “surprise” or different. Also, none of the targets were “threats”. Doesn’t really mean much to me...

Does make sense to me to always be thinking though. Where I sit at a restaurant, where the exits are.

I remember a match in 2003 where there was a bucket that had 4 different colored items in it. It was shook and at the buzzer you grabbed one item out of it and it’s color was the “friendly” and the shooter shot the other three colored targets.

I went over each one in my mind, mag changes in the different order and “programmed” them in. That was the first stage I ever won overall.

What does any of that have to do with anything? Not everything has to be a complete surprise and you are a lot better off if you already have solutions in your mind.
