Default Shifting question

I don’t do this very often but…. When I power shift from 1st to 2nd, or 2nd to 3rd it will grind going in. I can shift all day long normally and have NO problems at all. I have done this type of shifting in the old days with the rock crusher’s and had no issues. Is it possible that the clutch just needs some adjustment?

I Don't think my shifting is that much out of sync, I can duplicate this every time...

There is an adjustment for those who don’t know…

Does this mean I have to re-learn shifting due to the way a C5 tranny is setup?
