info_outlineAre you focusing on the wrong things in your putting?
In this fascinating episode of Mind Caddie, I speak with the internationally renowned golf coach, researcher and creator of The Stack System, Dr Sasho MacKenzie, to explore the science of putting performance and why so many golfers struggle to improve on the greens.
For years golfers have been told to focus on stroke path, strike location and mechanics. But what if those factors aren't nearly as important as we think?
Dr MacKenzie shares groundbreaking insights into:
• Why most golfers fail to improve their putting
• The real importance of green reading and face control
• Why pace control is the biggest opportunity for lower scores
• The science behind heads-up putting
• How visual information influences distance control
• Why your brain may need different information than your current putting method provides
• Practical ways to develop a smoother, more natural putting stroke
If you're looking to hole more putts, reduce three-putts and improve your overall golf performance, this episode will challenge some long-held beliefs and give you a fresh perspective on what really matters on the greens.
Dr Sasho MacKenzie is one of the most respected researchers in golf performance and the creator of The Stack System, one of the world's leading speed-training and player development platforms.
