Towel Head
I Played Golf with my brother this weekend. He was moving his head and couldn't return his head for Impact.

I folded my golf towel lengthwise and draped it over his head so it hung vertical like wearing blinders. He took one swing and said "I got it".

Was he afraid you use an old t-shirt if he didn't play along?

Did you take his milk and cookies when he was younger?

In spite of City's silly querries, I did try the towel over the head drill today. Not only did the guys stay a lot steadier over the ball, they really got quiet for a change.
No kidding, D, that really is a good drill. It isolates the head very well and blocks out all the distractions to boot.
Thanks for this one. I will use it quite a bit.
City, you should try it. Yes, I was a cookie stealer.

City, you need something a little more fundamental:

I'm having one of my students read your post, D!, and respond.

I can't see anything in front of me because there is a towel on my head. It's actually a table cloth, red and white, and I keep seeing these well-dressed national security type people watching me as I look down on my well-polished golf shoes! Their reflection is rather menacing!

How long until I take the towel off? People are saying "asmamalekim" or something to me!

That was a great game. But sorry City , the Chi Hawks are Canada's team in that confrontation. Too many memories of Kate Smith and the Broad street Bullies ......although their game against the Soviet Red Army team in the seventies was one of the classics of all time.

"The Russians have left the ice.........they're going home........they're packing their bags and they're going home".

Then they came back when they realized they wouldnt get their share of the gate and got just killed. The Flyers were running around like a bunch of gorillas that just broke out of the zoo.

didn't put the towel on just visualised (probably akin to dragging a dry mop!) but still thought it was good.
