Read the below with the quotation above in mind...

[As a teacher in the late 80's, I began experimenting with visual techniques to correct this common fault. Mechanical alterations often helped those with minor swing path problems but rarely affected the severe cases. Generally, mechanics used to correct an improper swing path were too uncomfortable and confusing.

One visual experiment led to another and finally, in 1994, a more radical thought came to mind. Why not take a direct look at the swing path instead of looking at the ball? I asked my students to focus on a spot on the ground, several inches behind the ball. The spot was also located on a slight inside angle to the target line----the path for a "perfect swing".

When you focus on the pre-impact spot, passing the center of the club head over the spot becomes your only concern. Your attention is temporarily shifted away from the ball and target. You are now creating the desired swing path allowing vision only, to be your natural guide.

Eye positioning is the term I have associated with this technique. It soon became obvious that a training device was necessary to insure correct eye positioning. In order to provide golfers with graphically accurate images, VisionTrack was developed.

This was taken from www.visiongolf.com - I do not use it and neither am endorsing it. I am just trying to get a point across.

Isn't it wonderful to discover that even 23 years after Mr. Kelley's untimely passing, the principles of TGM are still being validated.

Isn't it wonderful to know that we as exponents of TGM are so many years ahead?
Very interesting . . . I turn in to even more of a mouth-breathing-drouling MO-Ron when the ball is right there infront of me.

Have you tried this? Results?
