Hi all,
I just wanted to let you know of something VERY bizzare today. I've gotten back into PRing over the last few days and have gotten re-aquainted with the "preparing" state.
Today at the pool table (at work), on a whim...I tried the Tangerine Technique before taking my shot. I thought, "Sure...maybe it might help my game".
Much to my amazement, it was as if I were able to see an ever-so-faint shadow of a line from the cue ball to the object ball. Weird! But what the heck...I'll just line up my cue along the same line and take the shot.
It worked!
And it worked for the next several shots after that. I'm still not that good at "seeing the line" as it comes and goes, but I'm sure with enough practice at PRing (and at the pool table), it will get easier in time.
So, I highly advise you to take the Tangerine Technique seriously. Everything Paul tells you on the tapes and writes in the book about this technique is true. There really is something about this focus technique that is relevant.
