kill your idols

how many times do I have to do each Bargue? I end up doing them wrong so most I draw 2 or 3 times being conscious of my mistakes but still not as precise as I want them to be

also related to that I've seen very different approaches like accurately meassuring everything to make it exact but also some people doing the sight-sizing which i don't quite get and the book itself says it's also better to practice measuring by eye so

which one is it? it's driving me bananas.
