I hope you ladies don't mind a golfing metaphor.

I've heard it said that the weekend (occasional) golfer, when he stands over the ball preparing to swing, thinks he is looking down at the ball. In fact his field of focus is an area approximately 12" in circumference. For the more accomplished golfer, the one that might score 75-80, will actually be focusing only on the ball. But, the professional golfer "sees" and focuses only on the back side of the golf ball.

I think this discussion is really getting to the back side of the ball.
