Default Melon growing question

I have read that once a melon starts to form and grow, you should pinch the vine just beyond the melon. This supposedly lets all of the nutrients be used to grow the melon as opposed to the melon sharing the nutrients with more growth on the vine.

Has anyone ever tried this before, and how did you like the results?
