[QUOTE="Fergie Ploughman, post: 8155351, member: 8824"] I use a bonnet marker, mainly to get myself lined up at the headland. When I start on the opening I tend to look through it rather than use it, the marker poles are the real guide and I always make sure I'm sat in the seat exactly as I was if I got off. I tend to gently weave may head left to right to keep the poles in a line, that way you can more easily spot if you drifting off to the side. As stated if you can see more than one pole you've already blown it and added a bend! You need to know your going off target before you do. I often struggle to get that very last run straight at the ends, more often than not I've got a slight curve at the start, its a bugger getting that plough in the right place to do the finish....
