Pattern Box Rules (discussion)

    As a new competitor, just out of Sportsman, I actually like the box.
It sure beats blasting back and forth like we used to back in the 70s and 80s.
Also the box instills a dicipline that I find challanging but enjoyable.  I think
we would be losing something important if we eliminated the box.
 Thanks,
Paul
