Season 3 of the Golf Beneath the Surface is here and the topic is on Quiet Eye. Quiet Eye research has been around for a few years, made a bit more famously in Golf in the early 2000's. Dr. Raymond and Chase go through the ins and outs of what the research shows us about Quiet Eye, how it's applicable to golf and other sports, and if it's something we can use to help us improve our golf games. Enjoy!
