    You’re not alone, F6Bster. I am susceptible to overthinking and overcaution as well. It actually increases chances of an accident, IMO.

    I get past it by consciously putting those thoughts aside, reminding myself that those thoughts actually work against my safety and certainly enjoyment.

    Risk creep was the demise of my 13 F6B. Pushing to the edge. Nothing in reserve. Add a deer mid corner. Missed the deer, lost the battle.
