A couple of good years
1995 and 1996. I really had a good run during those years. It is hard to get real results from that time period because there was no such record keeper as askfred. But I took a look at my trophy shelf. I won the Geoff Elder in 95, I won the Sword in the Stone in 96, if I recall correctly, I won the MUGFEST at UGA. I also took 6th in the Southeast Sectional Championships. (All epee of course) I also won some tournament at Georgia Tech in 96 where I earned my first C. And I can't recall where but I remember I re earned that C the next week. I guess I should hunt through the medals and see if there was anything else Of interest in that time period. Maybe later.

Stats
I have been looking over the Online fencing journal at 14meters.com It shows some interesting stuff.
The win percentages alone are interesting. Since 2005, which is when I first started showing up on askfred, I have a 56.7 win percentage in epee bouts. (truth in advertising here, data for 05 and probably 06 is not complete, Fred was not widely used in this area at that time.) According to the data from Fred, in the 05-06 season I had a 60.9 % win ratio. Nice. In 06-07 it drops to 57.9, 07-08 it goes back up to 62.2, 08-09 it goes up again to 64.8, 09-10 it crashes to 42.7. Thus far in the 10-11 season my percentage is 25. Ugh.
There is a lot more data to mined from this stuff. I encourage you to give it a shot.
