EYE POSITION
A quick fix for pushed and pulled putts is to check your eye position. If I were to build a golfer, I would like to see him or her with their eyes set directly over the golf ball. This eye position encourages a path that is straight back and through the ball. Simply, it allows the golfer his or her best chance to return the clubface squarely to the ball on the intended line. If you are pushing most of your putts from good alignment, there is a good chance your eyes are inside the ball (too far away). Conversely, if you’re pulling putts from good alignment, there is a good chance your eyes are outside the ball (too close). A good way to check – set up in your normal putting position and bring a golf ball up to the bridge of your nose (directly between your eyes) and simply drop it on the green. Where that ball lands on the green is where your ball should be positioned. However, if you’re going to err for comfort, always err a little further away than closer.
