This is the thread to ask the questions you seek answers to.. No fault in that. At least you have the presence of mind to ask questions and advice from the wealth of info on this site. I don't believe you have insulted anyone by your inquiries. A good few weeks of reading the stickies and then availing yourself of instruction by a well vetted pro instructor will do more for your skillset then buying yourself broke on the latest and greatest gimmickry out there. Trigger time under careful supervision will garner the most desirable results.
