Thanks to all who responded to my other post...don't stop! I appreciate what you all have to say, even if it's the same as everyone else.
I think I have a good idea of what you all think about my question, but I'm slow and I like numbers, so this poll is just an addition to my original post.
The question, again, is - can I, a beginning swimmer, benefit from shaving down in order to get a better feel for the water and be more aware of my movements in the water? A former swimmer / good friend suggested I do this.
Thanks in advance for your continued response.

I will agree with what others have said: Shaving works for everyone but more for "experienced" swimmers. It is not just mental.
It is typical in college to have a mid-season taper/shave meet. For the week or so after the shave, my practice times were unreal (for me).
