I genuinely believe some of the easiest ways for golfers to gain DISTANCE and play better is to actually warm up.

Before you start shouting about how you don't have time or access to a gym or any of those other reasons...

Just watch this and you'll realize how critically important the warm-up is for performing better.

👁 What are your eyes doing while you putt?

I was watching Bryson's latest Break 50 video with Phil and picked up on something interesting.

He looks at the putter instead of the ball during the putting stroke.

• "I don't watch the ball at all. I keep my eyes on the putter head."
  • By watching the putter head, he's trying to make sure it moves straight back and through the stroke.
• "It's all about keeping the face square and aligned."
  • He believes that focusing on the putter helps him avoid any unnecessary wrist movement or face rotation at impact.
• "If I’m fixated on the ball, I can lose track of my stroke."
  • Bryson feels that watching the ball can cause subconscious errors in his stroke?!
• "I imagine a chalk line going through the ball and I guide the putter along it."
  • Visualizing a line helps him maintain control of the putter’s path without needing to look at the ball.
• "By watching the putter, I don’t manipulate the face, which helps with consistency."
  • His goal is to keep everything square and precise, resulting in more accurate putts.

Interesting!

This makes me take another look at the idea of "quiet eye".

The concept of narrowing your focus and keeping your eyes focused on a small point on the golf ball.

This seems to go directly against that idea.

Curious... What do you think?
