if none of that helped, this might

I was on a buddy box for alittle over a year. The feild that I flew at had HIGH grass, I mean my trainer had 500 foot takeoff rolls and you needed to taxi at full throttle, becuase of this I could never get it off the gound, yet my intructor manged to, after that I flew the whole flight. Any way, after the year and a half, I went to another club (which my instuctor invited me to, he was the Pres.) It had nice short grass, and I soloed that day.
