Yeah dude, head turn is KEY!!!
Take this pic for example... this was taken last weekend when I was out on the MSF range with my fellow RiderCoach wannabe's. Your chin should be damn near your shoulder when turning. Remember.... SLOW, LOOK, PRESS, ROLL!!! Each is just as important as the other.

I took a small ride today, and this is the first time I wanted to go right back out. That looking where you want to go shit is no lie. I used to look at the ground or straight ahead and then looking toward where I wanted to go. Today I just looked where I wanted to go from the get-go. It makes a hell of a lot of difference. I was too worried about stalling or dropping the bike that I was hurting myself more than helping. Thanks to all for pushing that. Now I'm more focused on the riding rather than fucking up.

That was the part that made the box so tough for me... Having to turn and look almost behind me just didn't feel natural and I kept looking at where I was instead of where I wanted to be...
