Sweet, ty for the info. I would imagine some people might have a picture of a loved one or maybe a note of importance (a regular object would seem distracting from the purpose you described). But, that might be taboo since anything that takes your mind off focusing on the target could hamper performance.

I imagine a competitor would have something in their pocket on occasion. That sprinter recently had a blue eyes white dragon card in his pocket, when he set a record a few back.

If you have a hole in your pocket, you can grab your genitals.
