Lesson 9 of 17 · Quiet Eye
Calm eyes. Calm stroke.
The one thing you're installing today
Your eyes control your brain. Your brain controls your stroke.
Why this matters
Your brain decides whether it’s safe to move based on what your eyes are doing.
Busy eyes → uncertainty → tension → control.
Quiet eyes → calm → automatic motion.
Busy eyes produce busy strokes.
The problem
Most misses happen right before impact.
The eyes jump to the hole.
The brain reacts.
The face changes.
The early peek is the tell.
The solution
Lock your eyes onto one thing: your distance line.
Not the hole. Not the result.
One visual anchor.
The stroke runs under a quiet gaze.
Alignment
Your eye position changes how your brain sees the line.
Too far outside
Line appears left → compensation
Too far inside
Line appears right → correction
Goal: eyes directly over or just inside the ball.
