TAKE THE HANDS TO THE BALL, AND THE BODY WILL REACT. 2. This one sounds similar to, Pivot Controlled Hands. The HANDS DON'T MOVE, UNLESS THE PIVOT OR BODY MOVES, however, the MIND IS IN THE HANDS. Are these the same thing, or are they different? What do you think? Your basic PROCEDURE has to be take hands up and down the plane. But you still have to train and monitor the pivot right? Think about all the stuff that you can do at one time (drive, eat, listen to radio, talk on phone, yell at kids) . . . . they all are not your PRIMARY focus or end game but you are monitoring a lot of stuff. Focus is to keep the car in the lines or to run over the 'possum or whatever. But you can still pick your nose and listen to the radio while you do it. But the overall mission is to keep it in the lines or take the hands up and down the plane. __________________ Aloha Mr. Hand Behold my hands; reach hither thy hand 12 piece bucket View Public Profile Send a private message to 12 piece bucket Find all posts by 12 piece bucket
