Golfer: Keep An Eye on The BallWritten by Jose L. Gonzalez
You hear this mantra in every sport keep your eye on ball! Its a perfect chant for golf player at every turn. If you cant see ball clearly, your chances of hitting it are slim to none!When you look at ball, you want to keep your eyes on one spot. Dont look at your club to see if its squared to ball. Dont let your eye follow club as you draw it away Just focus on ball nothing else. Also, when you look at ball, try to get a birds eye view of it. Your eyes are about a foot above pivotal center so raising your shoulders isnt going to help you see ball better. Dont gaze at ball along line of shaft of your club. Look down on ball rather than get your angles along shaft. This will give you much better results and you wont have a tendency to look up too soon. Now, theres a natural tendency in everyone to look away when you start to draw club back. Ignore that tendency and just keep looking down on top of ball. When you're looking down you'll notice that (if youre leaning over properly) only way you can keep club head in line of flight is to keep your hands moving along parallel with that line. Sweep your hands along with club head while ball and head are in contact.

Have you ever read one golf players valuable advice, only to find next day a different professional vehemently disagreeing and advocating exact opposite? One pro fanatically advises to keep your head straight. Later, another person comes along and gives completely contradictory advice.Whats a golfer to do? Listen to me, of course. Were all different, and no two people play exactly alike. So dont get too caught up in this or that different method. But there are some basic fundamentals that can make you or break you. And Im advising fanatically that you keep your head absolutely still and not move it from spot in which you start. You cant keep your head still if you stiffen your muscles. By keeping your head still, you loosen up and this allows you to finish your stroke smoothly and naturally. Keeping your head still also prevents slicing since you dont have to draw your hands in to keep your balance. One championship winner admitted that every time he stepped up to ball, at every shot he repeated to himself, “Keep your head still. Keep your head still.” Its a vital aspect to game too many players overlook.
