Hello from an old timer

**fencerbill** · 06-18-2005 01:08 PM

Hi:

Still trying to figure out how this works. I am sure it makes sense but it is not jumping at me.

I started fencing in 1953.

Have done well recently. Been going to Vets World Championships.

Righty Sabre!

Epee is a science;

Foil is an art;

but Sabre is a romance.

I did do Epee. I am quite proud of being first alternate to the 1999 Vets WC over 60 Epee squad. But I had to give it up. Counter attacking instead of parrying is not productive for Sabre. Although the way the knees are giving out, it may be back to Epee again.
