This week we talk about the Sight-Line from EyeLine Golf. I was unaware of (but now makes perfect sense) is this thing called the parallax error!  Each of us sees slightly differently when we are over the ball.  Once you have discovered whether your perfect posture has your eyes slightly inside the ball, directly over the ball, or slightly outside the ball, your aiming will now always be correct.  From that moment on,  you can still use the putting mirror, but now you will always make sure that your eyes are exactly where they need to be, and your putting will now get better and better!

Parallax Error is determined by this apparatus called SightLine.  The Putting mirror is set up on a perfectly level piece of ground.  The reflective mirror has a piece of white tape down the middle. When you set yourself over the putting mirror with your eyes over the black line (on the putting mirror), you are in what would normally be called the perfect putting posture.

But hold on a minute.  Once you are over the ball, turn your head (without changing your posture) and see if you can see the red line (on the mat on the ground) reflected in the mirror.  If you cannot, your Parallax Error is zero.  You can move until you cannot see the red line and see whether your eyes are to the inside or outside of the black line.  This is your Parallax Error.
