Do any of you go completely blind, where obstacles are concerned, when you're focused on the basket? It happens to me over and over again, and it's actually kind of funny.

100' out.

There's my line.

Throw ...

Yes! .. I hit my line dead on ...

!WHACK!

WTF?! where did that branch come from?! How did I not see that?!?!

LOL .. it's amazing to me how often this happens. Maybe I'm just getting old ...
 
Two words - Basil Marella. I swear to god the trees move around from spot to spot.
 
I have to focus on really looking all the way through my line to see if there is anything hanging that might snag it. At the same time I am looking to see if there is another line I can shape.
 
I am constantly smacking a low limb that I didnt pay attention to on a long jump putt. Now I try and tell my self " look up dumbarse"
