Nomads on the 26th will be the perfect place to test theories about hold sensitivity and feed the debate of which tune works best. Not only because the bottomless well of jim's knowledge will be present, but if this years course is anything to go by, the terrain and course layout will highlight any poor technique or particularly hold sensitive setup. Going up the hill this year there were elevated shots requiring high holds up the peg, and the ground you were lying on had camber, together it really messed up your hold if you weren't conscious of it.

The best modification I made to my TX was putting a foam pad on the forend to rest my hand against. Couple that with the 'light fingered' technique I borrowed from Terry D (I think from an article about the blue laminate hw97?) and hold sensitivity can be removed through technique rather than tuning.

I find the technical articles fascinating, but the best advice Jim has ever given me still stands - buy lots of pellets and practice!
