Okay, I have to post this- Ted's best tip ever for hitters. I believe he posted it on GEA, but I'm not sure. Here it is-
I like to feel like my right arm is filled with Novocaine.
Brilliant! Chip a few on your living room carpet with that feeling in your right arm. Relax it totally. Push the lever assembly with you left arm. Listen to the sound!
Thanks, Ted!
P.S.- I'm left handed. Switch it all around for you righties, and see how us lefties feel!

The shot numbs the area big time.

Just a slight correction. Dentist use Xylocaine or Carbocaine for local anesthesia, but we know what you meant.I happen to know a little about this topic since that is my day job.
Dentists used to use Novocaine, exclusively, but patients began to react to the preservative. Different preservative in Xylocaine/Carbocaine - less adverse reactions.

I had a housewife complain three years ago about the cattle prod that I was using (20,000 volts).
So, I had to revert to things that were less painful. It makes the learning process so much slower than before. It's amazing how quickly you can change something with a little jolt of electricity.
