I’m right handed but left eye dominant. I actually practiced putting with my right eye closed. I actually make more putts by not even opening my right eye at all. Not sure if anyone else does this but it seems to work for me. I don’t do this on any putts greater than 10 feet or so. On long putts, I’m more concerned with not 3 putting so I’m mainly focused on putting the ball no more than 2 feet from the hole but never short. I don’t always do it right but it’s a theory anyway. Thx for the video.
Thank you for this tip. I am left eye dominant and always use it when lining up shots and putts, but I was not aware of where to address the ball when putting (ball drop from dominant eye). I am looking forward to trying this!
Going to try exactly this. Can relate it to shooting a firearm. All these years have been doing it wrong. I'm left eye dominant but right handed. Dramatic improvement using the left eye for aim.
Left eye, left hand. I close the right eye and use the “stripe on the ball” to line the ball to the “hit it here to make the break” spot. It has improved my aim. Now to work on the energy into the ball to get it into the hole. Would love to see a video on this. (Full disclosure, I haven’t looked at your other videos).
Good information, thanks. I am right handed and my best putting has been left hand low. Also seems to be better when I place the ball slightly forward, which makes sense as I just checked this and am left eye dominant. Will be more conscious of this when I go out tomorrow, maybe a little more attention to detail will help.
He said it backwards. Look at the object and the eye that doesn't move the object is the dominant eye. So his dominant eye is the right eye. Most often if you are right handed right eye is dominant
Hi Tom, I recently started using the line on the ball to line up my putt. When I then addressed the ball it looked like the line was pointing almost 30° left of where I thought it would. My putting has greatly improved since I started using th he line on the ball! I'm right eye dominant but have been playing the ball under my left eye. Very interested to try your tip.
I'm left eye dominant and I play/putt left handed. My putting has always.been my achilles heal. Is there a style/type of putter that would work best or is it just alignment?
My dominant eye is my left, which I think was causing me issues as when I stood over the ball after aligning it it always looked or seemed that the ball was aligned left of my target. You should know that I’m right handed and play left handed ? Which means that my left eye was furthest from the hole? I seemed to have more success putting when I opened my stance?
My eye dominance is killing me. I will hit 15-16 greens per round and shoot 72-73 where if I holed 1/4 of my putts I’d shoot 67-68. I can’t seem to figure it out. I hope this works!! Thank you!!!
Most are right eye dom,but this doesnt mean its your best/strongest eye for looking focussing on far or close objects! but best for aiming. Jack Nick, best ever pressure putter was left eye dom,but ive never seen a pro or am copy his style.
Left eye is my dominant eye. I'm not a bad putter but I like to be better. This could be the tip that will put me on the way to better putting will keep you updated. DUCKTHEGOLFER
I found out by using different putters throug the years that I prefer center shaft putters. Recently asked to try different centered shafted putters in golf shop. Guy asks: is your left eye dominant? Because people with left eye dominance are supposedly preferring center shaft putters. I said ‘dunno’. Checked it following your instructions and turns out my left eye is dominant indeed. The world makes sense again 👍
My dominant eye is right one. So when I putting, I have to come to behind the ball and set up my eye first , try to see the line that the ball would go, then I set up the putter. Not sure if it is the right way to do with putter, but mostly work for me. But recently I change a putter, then sometimes could not see the line and square the putter face. Need more testing.
most of the videos say put the ball close to the left foot so there is enough space for you to lift the putter. What you suggested is really different. My right eye is the dominant eye, so the ball should be close to my right foot! I'll try it on the green. Thanks a lot and have subscribed.
Did that help? I’m right eye dominate as well. Using my normal putting stance balls seems too far back & im concerned I’ll push ball right of target. Would you move your head back? Adjust your stroke? What do u think?
nice video. your stick was pointed straight at the center of the hole, the ball was an inch away from stick. your stroke if straight should have hit left edge of hole. stick should have been pointed at right edge of cup then ball could go to center of cup.
Hi Mr Malek the length of the putter isn’t a matter of eye dominance but more how your arms prefer to hang down and how long they are... Do try out different types and lengths to make sure that you have the perfect stance and posture Regards, Tom
You shouldn’t put the ball on your back foot if you are right eye dominant. Your eye should be slightly inside and behind the ball. Putting the ball back in your stance will effect loft at impact and the decent angle and cause a lot more issues. Just because you make one doesn’t make it better long term
Thanks for your question. I think that everyone has a dominant eye 👁 or you have bad sight on one or the other side Try to see either the left on top of the ball and afterwards the right , see which is best.
Sorry not a good tip for most of the right eye dominant players .... You are supposed to make an ascending strocke by placing the ball forward of stance center ....this tip will make you hit down on the ball 😂
Hi sandar, thanks for your reply but do have a look at the putting stroke of right eye dominant players, they have there hands more back in their stance so they do make a upwards stroke … seemore putters can show you that
Do you know which eye is your dominant eye? Please let me know!
Right eye! This is brilliant. Your instructions are excellent. Thank you.
right
Eyes over the ball is all wrong imo
Hi I found out today I’m cross eye dominant as I’m right handed but my left eye is dominant
I am right eye dominant

Thanks! I had forgotten this.
Going to try exactly this. Can relate it to shooting a firearm. All these years have been doing it wrong. I'm left eye dominant but right handed. Dramatic improvement using the left eye for aim.
My right eye is my dominant eye. This really does seem to make a difference
I have a very dominant right eye due to a childhood accident, my ball position will change after this brilliant tip... Thanks
I´ve always been told to place the ball under the left eye
After your test I´m right eye dominant - Awesome insight makes so much sense !! Thank you!!
Me too
Left eye, left hand.

Thank you M Sreenivasan! You might want to check out this video about putting: ruclips.net/video/zzwZlI0geyk/видео.html
I'll keep an eye on that the next time I putt.
Nice :)

Great video
Thanks, Aram!
Thanks, i'll try it
Thanks, how about for chipping & short irons & so on?
It's my right eye! Glad to know!
He said it backwards.
Look at the object and the eye that doesn't move the object is the dominant eye. So his dominant eye is the right eye. Most often if you are right handed right eye is dominant
No you’re wrong he said it correctly. The reason the object went away from view is because he covered his dominant eye.

That's probably my problem. I've always put the ball off my left foot but I'm right eye dominant. I suck at putting too.
I'm left eye dominant and I play/putt left handed. My putting has always.been my achilles heal. Is there a style/type of putter that would work best or is it just alignment?
right eye dominant, going to try it!!
Tried it with the new marksman black lab putter and it works!!!!!!!!
My dominant eye is my left, which I think was causing me issues as when I stood over the ball after aligning it it always looked or seemed that the ball was aligned left of my target. You should know that I’m right handed and play left handed ? Which means that my left eye was furthest from the hole? I seemed to have more success putting when I opened my stance?
Left.

Right eye dominant. I need to try this.
Good luck! Thanks for your comment!
I’m right eye dominant
interesting concept. I am right eye dominant
Left eye is my dominant eye. I'm not a bad putter but I like to be better. This could be the tip that will put me on the way to better putting will keep you updated. DUCKTHEGOLFER

Great! Thank you for your comment and good luck with your putting!
I am right-eye dominant. I am not sure how putting the ball on the right eye and dropping the ball onto the green will help me line up a put correctly
My dominant eye is right one. So when I putting, I have to come to behind the ball and set up my eye first , try to see the line that the ball would go, then I set up the putter. Not sure if it is the right way to do with putter, but mostly work for me. But recently I change a putter, then sometimes could not see the line and square the putter face. Need more testing.
Does your new putter have a line on it?
most of the videos say put the ball close to the left foot so there is enough space for you to lift the putter. What you suggested is really different. My right eye is the dominant eye, so the ball should be close to my right foot! I'll try it on the green.

Did that help? I’m right eye dominate as well. Using my normal putting stance balls seems too far back & im concerned I’ll push ball right of target. Would you move your head back? Adjust your stroke? What do u think?
So basically if you are right eye dominant you need to move the ball back in your stance? is that correct
Correct, right under the dominant eye!
right eye dominant, golf right handed but naturally left handed.
Nice shoes, what are they?!
My left eye is dominant. Will try it tomorrow.
Excellent! Let me know if it worked for you!
Cross eye dominance!
nice video. your stick was pointed straight at the center of the hole, the ball was an inch away from stick. your stroke if straight should have hit left edge of hole. stick should have been pointed at right edge of cup then ball could go to center of cup.
This test is the complete opposite to other reviews on RUclips?
exactly, it must be a misunderstanding
Brilliant
I am right handed, left eye dominant, is there a certain length you would recommend for me just based upon left eye dominate? Shorter or longer?
Hi Mr Malek the length of the putter isn’t a matter of eye dominance but more how your arms prefer to hang down and how long they are...
Do try out different types and lengths to make sure that you have the perfect stance and posture
Regards, Tom
You've got it backwards!
Left
Right eye
It's my right eye - playing left-handed
Right hander, left eye dominant
You shouldn’t put the ball on your back foot if you are right eye dominant. Your eye should be slightly inside and behind the ball. Putting the ball back in your stance will effect loft at impact and the decent angle and cause a lot more issues. Just because you make one doesn’t make it better long term
No he’s right mate, it even feels more comfortable naturally to do what he’s saying..
right
When you can see the object with one of your eyes closed that’s your dominate eye? I think you said it backwards.
The open eye is dominant...
Left eye, right handed
So how do you do this when you don't have a dominant eye?
Thanks for your question. I think that everyone has a dominant eye 👁 or you have bad sight on one or the other side
Try to see either the left on top of the ball and afterwards the right , see which is best.
"17 percent of people have no identifiable dominant eye. " 🤷♂️
@@TheXanUser put the ball between both eyes then obviously
@@danielkirkland3366 okay, but then it doesn't tell you anything about the slope..
@@TheXanUser unsure what you mean
Are you talking about green reading ?
Left eye
i think he said that backwards
are you as surprised as you suggested you would be ?
I look at the hole when I hit
Some pro's do that as well!
i'm left eye
Left eye domimant.
