Old timer at the shop in Pittsburgh told me to 'feel the pull' instead of measuring every angle

He was setting up a 60 foot radius curve for a stair railing and just ran his hand along the rod before bending it, and after I watched him nail it on the first try I started trusting my hands more than the tape from then on, has anyone else dropped the math and just gone by feel?

Kick the tape measure across the floor and see what happens.

You ever just close your eyes and let your hands do the thinking? That old timer knew what was up.
