We have threads about each stroke and about kicking, so i thought it would be good to have one about starts and turns to deal with questions and tips.
When I transitioned from the grab start to the track start i had a great deal of trouble with repeatability. I was either too deep or too shallow. Through trial and error i discovered that if I focused on getting a good push from my rear leg my entry was much more consistent, YMMV.
What do people say about the all to frequent practice of track/grab starters (and some Olympians) rocking back to get what they believe is slingshot effect on the start. Seems to me that rocking back means that you are now further from the pool than ever.
