What are you looking at when you hit your golf ball? What are you looking at? It makes so much more difference than I wager you realize. Why does where you’re looking at affect your ball striking or golf swing entirely? It does have an effect. It doesn’t have the biggest effect, but it’s something that you can add on to to try and give you a bit more refinement of what you’re trying to accomplish. As a general rule, we do want to be focusing on some sort of spot on the golf ball. Now, with irons, because we want to be sort of striking just after the golf ball, okay, it’s actually a very good tip to think of focusing on something just on the front edge of the golf ball. It can be a line on your ball, it can be the number, however it’s laying on the ground. Or if you’re on a T off a par three or whatever, you can put it so the digit is right at the front. So when you’re looking at the ball, I’m not just staring down. I’m sort of checking my feet, my alignments quickly, but I don’t do that much because I’ve done the pre-checks before I’ve hit it, right? But my eye is focusing on that number one at the front of the ball. That is it. Now, am I keeping it in focus the whole time I’m hitting? Absolutely not. I don’t really see myself hit the ball and I don’t think you should either. However, if we focus on the front of the ball, it’s going to encourage us to basically get the ball then the turf first to kind of stay on top of it and ahead of it a little bit more. If we look at the back of the ball, that’s going to encourage us to hang back a little bit more. It’s going to encourage us to stay back a little bit more because we have to sort of keep our eye looking at that golf ball. So, for me to see the front of the ball, I have to be more on top of it this way. Especially if I’m right eye dominant. If I want to try and hit the back of the ball and on underneath it a bit more, I’m going to try and change my view to see it a little bit more this way and look at that black mark because that’s going to help me sweep up on it. But I don’t want that with the driver, do I? I want to be making sure that I’m looking more at the front of the ball. So, if I basically close my left eye and keep my right eye open, I want to make sure that that right eye is staying focused on top of that golf ball with the irons. This is going to help me stay more centered and on top of it. [Music] It came up a conversation basically of what people find themselves doing and one chap gave an kind of an unusual idea but I explained to him why it works very very well and I think it will help you too. three dimples. That’s what his focus is on every golf shot. He just looks at three dimples on top of the ball. And that’s okay as a basic level, but I told him specifically to take it to the next level by focusing on three dimples with a driver where we’re on the inside of the ball, more back here, and with an iron, we’re more on top in front of the ball. And why are three dimples effective? What he said, which was he didn’t realize it has this kind of effect, but he sort of knew that when he focuses on the three dimples, if they are clear, crystal clear to him in setup and the top of the back swing and as he’s coming down, if he can see them clearly, those three dimples, he’s pretty sure he’s going to hit consistent shots. Now, bear in mind, he’s not like a pro or anything like this. He’s just wanting to play good golf once in the week and maybe once or twice at weekends if he’s lucky. So, it has to be simple. It has to be executable. And aside from the specifics of why this works very well, it’s just part of a very good process. And it’s giving him a a green light that when he gets clarity on the three dimples, that’s giving him confidence and the green light to be able to say, “Okay, I can go and commit to this.” He’s not going to be fidgeting around trying to worry whether he’s in line, aimed up correctly. He’s not thinking about swings. His only objective is to get crystal clear on those dimples. That clears the mechanism out. It makes things simpler so you can just execute your shot. It’s like a green light go. And that’s why I love it. For him, he thought it was just like keeping his eye on the ball, helping him stay like a little bit more centered and whatever. Yes, it does that, but the hidden benefit is that clarity, that green light to be able to say, I can go. I’m ready for this shot. And when he was able to take that and build on it with the refinement of where to look for depending on the club, he is going to see even more improvement. [Music] We are focused mainly on irons and looking at the front of the ball to help keep that low point forward. We don’t want with that with driver, do we? And we’ve mentioned this. We want to be sort of focusing on a point a little bit more this way. So we can stay a little bit more behind it as we strike. And if my eye is sort of focused on there, doesn’t necessarily mean I look at it and I can see it in impact. But if my intention is to keep my eye on it, it’s going to encourage me to stay back a little bit more but stay centered at the same time and strike up. I put my ball in and if I can, I’m going to orientate a line or a number or whatever it might be about where I want to strike it. Now, here I want to be striking it sort of up this side, but also on the inside a little bit. So, I’m actually I’m exaggerating somewhat, but I’m going to try and feel like I am hitting that line here, but I’m going to apply my friend’s tip of focusing on just the end of it and three dimples. I’m not going to start my swing until I see those three dimples clearly. And then when I swing back, I’m going to hammer it there. That’s what we’re trying to do. Because I do not want to be looking at the front of the ball cuz that’s going to encourage me to come over the top. Now, why not just look at the top of the ball like Mike did? Well, if we stay on top of the ball, we’re kind of not one or the other. We’re just sort of staying centered. So I can be a little bit too on top of it cuz I’m focusing on top with the driver. That’s not ideal. With the irons, we might be sort of stuck in no man’s land. So if we do something like this, keep your eye on the ball. Let’s do it properly. And that’s why it’s really important to not just pick the spot that you want to look at. Getting focused on those three dimples is going to give you that clarity and that green light. focusing on the dimples on this side. Easy peasy. That is going to give you consistency. That is going to give you something to execute the shots with confidence. Try it and let me know how you get on. Now, if you want to make sure the rest of your swing is kind of supporting the focus and intentions you’re trying to get, I’ve got a couple of lessons here that are going to make simple golf more attainable and a better swing for you. See you next time.
