Have always had issues with getting any sleep the first night in a new motel room and when I've got something special going on the next day. Sleeping pills were ok for business meetings & such, but the residual next morning effects are not such a good thing for shooting, so I'm looking for a better solution.
Talked to a buddy who has shot a lot more & his advice was 'yea it is a problem' .
Saw a story about same in the book "With winning in mind" where the author told the shooter that since she was awake anyway she might as well be productive and do mental rehearsals of the match. It was reported that this worked in her case and I will give it a try.
Any other tricks that might help with the issue would be great to hear about. Kind of the main thing I'd like to work on this winter is showing up consistently with my head on as straight as possible.
