Shot placement for Nymphing

Last night I came across an article written by the great Bob Clouser(6/2005 Fly Fishing Guide) where he indicates the following shot placement for nymph fishing:

1st 6-10" above fly
2nd --if needed :10" above the 1st
3rd ---if needed 10" above the 2nd.

I was franklly surprised by this info!

My question is:what is your pattern of shot placement?

Mine is:5" above the fly;1" above the 1st, and 1" above the second
Thanks
Tom
