And with both moves being in the medium danger area it's less about extraneous shot volume and more about luck, right? And with that I'm sure a decline in confidence with the bounces not going their way.
They're not hurting their numbers by shooting too often from far out.
They're not generating much less in high danger.
They're not giving up much more in high danger.
