Eyes-Closed Balance Swing

⏱️ Tempo & SpeedAdvanced10 swings, 5 teed balls

What it fixes: Balance, sequencing, and body awareness.

How to do it

  1. Make practice swings with your eyes closed, holding the finish for 3 seconds
  2. If you wobble, your sequencing or tempo is off - slow down until stable
  3. Progress to hitting teed balls with eyes closed at 70% speed
  4. Forces your body to feel the swing instead of steering it
Pro tip: A balanced finish you can hold is the cheapest swing fix in golf
