Do it Yourself Greyhound Handicapping For Beginners

I'm an independent cuss. Since I was a toddler, I've always insisted on doing things myself. Even when people only wanted to help me, I'd brush them off and bull my way through things. Lately, I've begun to realize that it's not always a good idea to do everything yourself.

Take greyhound handicapping, for instance. Even if you're a natural at it, you'll learn it more quickly if you start with something that someone else has already developed. It's like making cake from a mix, rather than making one from scratch. Both ways work and the finished product is just about the same. One just takes a lot less time to make.

It's the same with handicapping the dogs. It just makes a lot more sense to find something that someone has already figured out, learn it, and then use it along with what you've learned, yourself. This is when real profit can be made, when you combine what you've learned with what someone else can teach you.

If you think about it, that's all systems are: teachers. Using a system is like having someone sit down with you and show you how to pick dogs. Most of what you learn from handicapping methods are things that you could learn on your own. Of course, it might take you several lifetimes to do it!

The biggest problem that people have with systems is that they expect the system to do all the work. They want something that automatically picks dogs and that's not realistic. They're looking for a cheat sheet for the test, instead of a study aid like those "notes" that we used to buy in high school. Even the best handicapping system can only help you learn to pick winners. You still have to give it your input and do some handicapping too.

Being independent and thinking for yourself is a good thing. But it can be taken too far. Be smart enough to find help when you need it, and take advantage of what someone else has put time and effort into learning. It's a shortcut to making more money at the track.

I don't know about you, but saving time is just as important to me as saving money these days. And that's another good reason to let someone else figure out the basics so that you can work on improving their method and adding your own ideas to it.
