Amen to that Chris. I don't understand all these people who say, "if you don't like the numbers, don't buy them". How can I even pass judgement on whether or not I like the numbers when I can't get an explanation on how they are made? I'm not asking for the actual formulas, I understand those are proprietary. I'm not asking anyone to give away the business, just and general overview, just like you have done above.
Anyone who thumbs their nose at a comparison or says they don't care which ones are better is a moron, plain and simple. Why in the world would you not want to use a better product? Even if you are hitting 1 out of 4 races and turning a profit, what if you could hit 1 out of 3?
Personally, I will always be looking for the right combination of handicapping techniques to always improve my game, whether it be TG, Ragozin, BRIS pace, or even examing stool samples if I have to. I want to be armed with as much beneficial info as I can to be successful. Anyone who doesn't, thank god for you, you are keeping the pools stocked with money for the taking.
