The magic of where your eyes are had a tremendous effect on me today.
A while back, I read in Golf Digest that it works very well to look four inches in front of and four inches farther away from you than the ball. It helps bottom the swing out in front of the ball and promotes an in to out swing, or so they say. I'd do it at the range occasionally a lot last year, and it certainly helped a lot, but I could never get used to it. Today after a piss poor round, I started doing it again on the range. 180* turn. Everything was PURED. I need to make myself do this every time.
On anything less than full swings, I like to look about an inch in front of the ball, helps me hit down on it and hit it square.
For putts, I look straight at the ball. I've tried looking at the hole before, doesn't work for me at all.
It's kind of crazy psychology how where you look impacts the swing. Where do you look when you swing?
