Reverse Hook Training?

[TheSuppishOne]

I've seen many posts here describing "hook training" and using the hook to gently touch the snake on the nose before handling.

Thing is, since snakes only get fed once a week/2 weeks/month (depending on their age), wouldn't it be far more efficient to train them oppositely?

In other words, instead of tapping on the nose before handling, tap them on the nose before a feeding? If you handle your adult snakes more than once a month, it would seem that this method would be far more efficient...
