And you will quickly learn your first lesson in decision-making for SF guys. Sometimes, taking a short moment to assess a situation and quickly make a semi-informed decision will reap far better results than to employ brute force. I think your Land Nav practical exercises will help you in this regard.

Its very similar to the old joke of two bulls sitting on a hill, overlooking a herd of cows. The young, strong bull looks at the old, scarred bull and says, "Let's charge down this hill and [mate with] a couple of those cows." The older bull shakes its head and says, "No, let's WALK down this hill and [mate with] ALL of them."
