Tying Your Shoelaces

I guess that's fine, but it has to be after the mechanics has been mastered?
The example I use all the time is that of tying your shoelaces. In the beginning, it is a learned, laborious, fumbling, frustrating set of consciously controlled mechanics (make the 'bunny ear', etc.). In the end, it is one cohesive feel, executed totally subconsciously, with barely even a conscious thought triggering the act. And so it is with the Golf Stroke.
