Timex,
Now that we have scared the crap out of you and your putting your stuff on EBAY take a second and think about this. First of all don't be afraid of the prop!!!!!!! Give it the respect it deserves but don't be afraid of it. What happens when your afraid of the grounder commin right at you? EXACTLY you get cracked right in the mellon! Most prop accidents happen because of distraction or complacency! If your good about your ground procedures: tail trap, glove, chicken stick, ect. you will not have a problem. I say start with the glove until your comfortable, NOBODY will give you crap for that, if they do they ain't worth a spit anyway. Besides just tell them your a surgeon!!!


PS Alan is right, the tail trap is the best thing you can do, our club requires them.
