Re: Why I push the ball ?

All the idea's in other posts didn't work.

But I think I've found out the reason why I push the ball.

I aim to the right !

It sounds daft but people have made comments over the years that I aim right, even with my putting. When I think I'm aiming straight for the target, I am actually aiming right with my shoulders and my feet.

I've found out the reason as well. I normally wear glasses. My left eye is okay but my right eye is very poor. I can't see a thing out of it. I don't play golf with my glasses on. For some reason this effects my aiming. When I set up I have my shoulders aiming way right. The trouble is I think I'm set up straight. So I swing and the ball goes right (where I'm aiming) and I never knew why.

I have now started wearing glasses. My aiming is now spot on. When I setup my shoulders are square and so are my feet. My long game as improved. I can feel that I'm aiming better. My putting as improved massively. Played on Monday and scored a 72. I drew the ball well and also faded a few irons when I wanted to. Didn't push the ball at all !

I think I've sorted out a 15 year old problem !
