Visual Count Consistency

What ever method you use practice to practice a count, be aware that the pace and intensity of a game will probably be a little higher than watching oatmeal cook. I seen people who's count vary with the intensity of the action.

That's something I also wanted to emphasize. Other than being that ref, there's nothing worse than watching a rather good official whose count for one second is about 1 second long, but whose count gets shortened to about half a second for the fifth second.
