In this video, we explore the critical connection between perception and putting setup, tackling the "chicken or egg" question: does poor perception lead to setup and stroke issues, or does a flawed setup distort perception? Using examples like optical illusions and practical drills, we illustrate how your stance, head position, and alignment can alter what your eyes perceive as straight, potentially causing inconsistencies in your putting stroke. By testing perception with a simple drill involving balls placed in a straight line, golfers can identify whether they truly see a straight putt or if their perception is skewed. Recognizing and addressing this can help refine your setup, improve putting accuracy, and build confidence on the greens.
