Eyeline PLEASE HELP!
The biggest problem I face is my eyeline in regards to the plane line. I tilt my head in a weird position when I set up. My left eye is a bit higher than my right and my left ear is higher than my right. The angle my eyes are on is pointed right of the plane line.

I know this is my problem, but for some reason I can not get in a position with my head or eyes that I know is correct, I feel that I am just guessing.

Does anyone have some advice on getting there head and eyes lined up correct?

I have the same problem with my putter.

I don't know if I'd consider that a problem at all boss . . . your eyes are looking down the angle of approach . . . to me that'd be a good thing.

I may be able to help with that. Once upon a time there was a device made that you could use to see if your eyes are parallel to the plane line.

I agree you may not want to change that unless its way too much neck tilt. From time to time the eyes change the relationship to the incline plane on the downswing due to the neck movements.
If this is the case it can delay if not hinder shoulder movements. This in turn leads to a steer effect.
Best way to work on this is get a stick on the ground and cast your shadow so you can fully see it.
Or hit ball with eyes closed. It cancels out the need to look at the ball so you can focus on the neck and head.
Make sure you start out small and slow so you can feel what your doing.


A side note : the best things ever for this was the EYE line glasses for putting. If you did it wrong you could not see the ball when you made a swing.
