Tape a game and review the calls you question.

Good point. Just because it looks odd doesn't mean that it is a travel. If it does look weird and you can't decide leave it alone! I think we at the high school level call too many walks that aren't there. We do exactly what jkjenning said. We think if it looks odd we should call it, which is totally what we shouldn't do.
