I've been playing for 10+ years now but I'm always learning new things and still asking questions so here's one to think about.
This is one I've been thinking about for a while and since I'm getting back into tournament play soon I've been experimenting with new things.
Ok most of us know that when putting if you are right eye dominate you aim more left of the pole and if you are left eye dominate you aim more right of the pole.
My question comes to drives. Can the same method of putting be incorporated into driving? I've been experimenting a bit and it seems to be working.
Using right eye dominance in this example:
Ok take for instance a straight drive,trees on both sides.So if you miss left or right you are in trouble.You know you have to go straight down the Teepad to get it straight,but sometimes the disc goes right instead of straight.Mentally you was aiming in the middle or to the right just a bit resulting in a clipping of the trees resulting in loss of disc speed and a shorter shot or going way deep in the rough to the right.
As of late I've been experimenting aiming more left instead of straight down the gut or if it's a anyhyzer aiming much more left of my target instead of where I know the disc will turn and on hyzers aiming more right. So far drives have been more accurate and I've been about 80% successful.
What do you guys think? Does left and right eye dominance have a play in drives too? Or am I just overthinking things and my results are just coming from me concentrating a little bit more?
