[12 piece bucket]

Bucket,

Defining the target is my big part of the equation. Learning how to think out a shot. That should be a big part of the content that I provide. I'm not sure there is one correct answer for everyone about the best way to do the "process." It is important that you have a process that includes the vital steps.

As far as what to think or feel when you are actually swinging, do what you need to do. I do think that the more you make your swing the same way time after time, the less concious thought needs to be employed (Litzke). When you are re-training a motion you will need more thought and practice swings (Faldo). I am reading up on "being in the zone." It's pretty deep. I'll let you know what I find out. Give me a day or two.

Straight hitters have good swings. I'm not sure about the mind and the hands. They tend to be level headed. They also are good at picking targets and trusting their swings to send the ball there. They don't hit many bad shots, so they don't get alot of noise about the trouble. They expect the ball to go where they aim. There is also the 100 in a row freethrow shooter in them. "I've made the last 75, so I should be able to make this one." Not--"I'm due for a miss." I also think their swings tend to be a little less dynamic. Not necessarily shorter, but not the type that really slings it.

How do you reckon them dudes develop such TRUST? Is it from banging 1000's of balls? Or something else? Do they just have it in 'em?
