    Walter & Group...

    [GH]  Many of the concerns and suggestion in our messages on Task 6 will apply to task 7.


    Task 7.  Demonstrate a roll cast using a single haul, shooting lie to achieve a distance of 55 feet or more.  Allowances will be made if casting on grass -- the candidate may opt to cast with or without anchoring the leader or use a grass leader.


    Expectations :  A dynamic, thrown D or V loop, e.g., a 'flick-lift' positioned approximately 180 degrees from the target is expected on this task.  Consistent loops with the top of the loop no higher than the caster's head.


    Passed  (___)

    Failed    (___)

    (___)  Leader did not fully straighten.

    (___)  Loops too big.

    (___)  Did not haul


    Comments: _________________________________________________________


    The first thing which comes to mind is that "Did not reach minimum distance" was not included in the reasons for failure.  However, I think that would be an obvious reason and need not be discussed at length.

    Let's have your comments and concerns.
