It also makes it so that I only have 3 or 4 steps to the C position rather than the 9 steps that it takes if you "split the court." I'm not saying that your partner is wrong... there are a million philosophies about position. It's just different than how I was taught - sounds more like my old 2-person training.

That's what I was looking for...an articulate response that I agree with...and one that my veteran friend can see and digest.
...and as others have said...not necessarily wrong...just a different philosophy.
Thanks zebraman...also, are you going to one of the "big shows" this year?
If so, which one?
