I was reading through Lanny Bassham's book again last night (every time I do, I pick up something that eluded me the last time). (Amazon.com: With Winning in Mind 3rd Ed. eBook: Lanny Bassham: Books)
In it he goes into great length how we train our subconscious mind to carry out the mechanics of shooting, and that we ought to trust the subconscious to carry out the details. This happens for me for the fundamentals (more or less) - I put very little conscious thought into trigger control for example. But I realized that my wind reading is still very much a conscious, deliberate activity. I also realized how every now and then, I will "forget" and allow my subconscious to take over and handle the wind. When I let those shots fly, I usually have a feeling of "uh oh... I wasn't paying attention on that one", only to be surprised that they often come up 10's or x's.
Anyone else experience this? Do you read wind with your subconscious mind or is it a deliberate activity?
