Getting Better!
Well, today I had what I can say is my first good straight shave. Got a nice close shave in 2.5 passes with no burn and only a couple of minor weepers that stopped with cold water. Hazzah!!!!
I think getting the feel of proper blade angle and skin stretching are really key (and a sharp razor decently stropped of course).
I'm psyched and just thought I'd share. Thanks again for the support and info you've all provided.

It only gets better with each additional day of practice.

Good to hear, Jordan. Pretty soon you won't even be worried about the shave so much as which cream you like best and what razors you'll add to your arsenal.
Keep enjoying,

Truer words were never spoken. I have my au natural rotation set and now I am deciding what scent and what cream or soap to use.
