Safe

Notes

  • Whipping 4 times helps set up the timing so the first cross hits the horse head as it appears.

Optimal

Notes

  • You lose no time on clunk frames when you enter the boss as the transition is scripted.
  • Jump 3 times before the fight starts as a cue for when to throw your crosses.
  • Please see Joe's boss tutorial as well for more detailed information.
