Kris -- This is my fourth year, and I never have gotten over it -- still can't use a mirror. What works as well or better is to take a kid with you to a game and have him video your game. I've said this over and over, and it really is true. Tape about once a month, and you gain about an extra six months to a year in learning. If you become addicted as I have, and want to go on and move up, you can do that alot faster with the taping thing going on.
