Today, for whatever reason, I made a focused effort to sight the end of the pool, albeit momentarily, during my breath. I think it helped me keep correct orientation and pitch thus helping my body dolphin. I think before I was just looking cross eyed into the water ahead and not really picking the end of the pool as the focus. It was cool seeing the wall "rapidly" approaching.
So my question is, should you not look at any discernable thing and zone out looking for the tee, or should you take a conscious peek at the wall on every breath to help keep body orientation?
What say you?

Well, hell has frozen over. I'm going to agree with Michael for the first time ever. :) I never look at the other end of the pool. I might, maybe, roll my eyeballs up once (but not while breathing) about 4-5 strokes from the wall, but that's it. Or, at least that's what I aim to do.
Maybe I need to not look forward too then.
Anyone want to desribe their had/arm entry. I think I'm pressing down on the water and it's aggravating my shoulder.
