I was mostly testing the feasibility of using a stroboframe to prevent redeye. You are correct in that I could have opened up to f/2.8 or even gone to ISO 1600 (or both) which would have reduced the flash output and therefore increase recycle times, but I chose to test it this way. Hopefully in the future I will be able to properly play around with all the different combos. I haven’t tried the high speed sync (at least not for wrestling — I have played with it before).

Some of the best I've seen. Have you tried using High speed sync on your flash. You could boost shutter speed to 1/320,1/400 or faster. Especially with the white circle! That mat is a photographers dream! Great reflector. I always groan when I walk in and see a dark blue, black, green or any dark mats. And then they hang what looks like a street light over the mat. Light just gets absorbed. You gave me some ideas. I usually open my lens to 2.8, but yours at f/4 are sharper as expected and you are getting good light. Excellent photos!
