Now I would be the last person to suggest aiming for perfection was not a noble goal but the law of diminishing returns does apply here. Be happy with what you have but it is still noble to strive for better. The choice is ours and ours alone.

    Haha - great post and yes you are 100% right. Really I am happy but I am just seeking to improve and learn. I've decided I'm too old and tubby to be competitive at PRS, I find F and FTR a bit codified and so that sorta leaves me to find other things to do - trolling 3 shot group methodology etc. and getting the most bang for my buck from what I have at hand!
