Here and there I'd come out ahead a few times, but it only made me careful. There's too much that can happen - the twig that deflects your bullet just enough, the time you don't quite get the right grasp on the gun butt, the dust that blows in your eyes. . . . Anyway, there's things can happen to the fastest of men and to the best shots. So I was cautious.
