Using blinders.

[Mike Pearson]

It takes a bit of seat time to get used to the blinder. You have to cover everything but the bottom yellow. Takes a lot of concentration. Unless you have a stocker that leaves hard you might not be able to hit the tree as fast as you would like. I use the bottom of the roll bar as my blinder. Just tilt my head up a bit to blind the bulbs. One other thing if you wear glasses and have bifocal or progressive lenses you might want to get a pair of single vision glasses to race with. you don't want to be looking at the tree through the reading part of the lens.
