Especially if you're reaching from lead to call a phantom backcourt violation.

I'm a first year too and know exactly what you are saying. I had this happen during my mechanics clinic. Obvious travel, my brain told me it was a travel, and I just didn't blow the whistle. Super embarrasing in front of other officials. I determined it was because I was too wound up worrying about this and that and the other. I figured I can see all this stuff clearly when I'm just watching a game (ie low stress), so I just told myself that I was going to clear my mind a bit and just watch the game and let it come to me. It has worked pretty good so far.
