Eye On Ball,mind In Hands
I have been working on nothing but this for the last 2 weeks.Not hit many balls but those that I did ,I really focused on the ball and the feel, not the outcome.
I got to the point where the feeling became quite hypnotic and I had the feeling that everything was happening so slowly ,I really felt as though I could 'feel' any part of the motion I chose to. Anybody else tried this-REALLY FOCUSED?:eyes: |

I've tried it one time while . . . you were talking about golf right? my bad. Here's some more stuff to experiment with. Hit balls starting from top. Make a bunch of swings with your eyes closed . . . then try to hit one eyes closed. If you got a video camera . . . film a swing where you make the goofiest possible feeling swing you can make . . . then watch it. You'll be surpised how ungoofy it looks . . . lesson you can't trust feel . . . but you can trust alignments. |
focus
Neil,yes mate something similar,I was told something similar some years ago by a touring pro here in aussieland,to make a long story short,even in practice,Focus on a different grass colour or something that stands out where you want the ball to land be it a leaf or whatever,not look at it but FOCUS--FOCUS - FOCUS and providing your swing is at that level or there abouts you will see remarkable results,I concetrated on this for sometime and it pays dividends.I was in lead of a tourney at that time and it was,nt until I had actually walked from the hole that I just made birdie on and then realised that my tee shot had landed right on the spot I aimed at,Yes Yes Yes focus is real

The "machine"
Quote:
Now, I do "eyes on the Low Point, mind in the Lag". |
My eyes on the ball are for a steady head. The eyes that hit the ball are the ones in my hands- an inner eye. Substitute inside quad of ball with Aiming Point.
Many of us play far less than practice- remember to play with the "Feel." Leave the training guy home for a while. The whole point is to feel the machine, not tune it up swing to swing. |
