Hadn't flown this rocket in a while, and also had never flown this motor, a CTI 29mm 4 grain red.  went with a 24" chute to try and cut down on the recovery walk.  Great boost, very quick off the rail and up out of sight.  Saw the tracking smoke and ejection event but never picked up the rocket.  Luckily several other folks had eyes on it and eventually I was able to pick it up under chute.  Landed on the field, no damage.
