I had Hurst qsticks in everything for years and really like them.
I have had a TA shifter in my current car for 4 years now. Have never missed a shift with it.
That said, i do take a little extra care with it. I just put my finger tips on it after i stage and keep them there, and when i make the 1/2 shift just tap it. Then grab it to make the 2/3 shift.
Its just falling into a habit and repeating it every time is the key. I have come to actually like it. The command center is nice for my switches and make for a tidy, unclustered area around the shifter.
