Heads-Up Putting: The Secret to Better Pace Control? | Dr Sasho MacKenzie (The Stack System) #414

Author: Karl Morris June 19, 2026 Duration: 1:08:07

Are you focusing on the wrong things in your putting?

In this fascinating episode of Mind Caddie, I speak with the internationally renowned golf coach, researcher and creator of The Stack System, Dr Sasho MacKenzie, to explore the science of putting performance and why so many golfers struggle to improve on the greens.

For years golfers have been told to focus on stroke path, strike location and mechanics. But what if those factors aren't nearly as important as we think?

Dr MacKenzie shares groundbreaking insights into:

• Why most golfers fail to improve their putting
• The real importance of green reading and face control
• Why pace control is the biggest opportunity for lower scores
• The science behind heads-up putting
• How visual information influences distance control
• Why your brain may need different information than your current putting method provides
• Practical ways to develop a smoother, more natural putting stroke

If you're looking to hole more putts, reduce three-putts and improve your overall golf performance, this episode will challenge some long-held beliefs and give you a fresh perspective on what really matters on the greens.

Dr Sasho MacKenzie is one of the most respected researchers in golf performance and the creator of The Stack System, one of the world's leading speed-training and player development platforms.

Karl Morris has spent years working as a performance coach with some of the best golfers in Europe, and in Mind Caddie-Improve Your Mental Golf Game, he shares that expertise directly with you. This isn't just about swing thoughts or technical fixes; it's a deep, practical exploration of the psychology that dictates performance on the course. The conversation moves beyond simple positive thinking to address the real challenges players face: handling frustration after a bad hole, maintaining focus over eighteen holes, and building a resilient confidence that doesn't vanish under tournament pressure. Each episode feels like a personal session, breaking down the mental frameworks used by tour professionals into actionable strategies for any committed player. You'll hear discussions on managing expectations, creating effective pre-shot routines, and understanding how your brain can be your greatest asset or your biggest obstacle. The aim is to provide the tools that help you access your best game more often, turning those range sessions into reliable performance when it truly counts. Tune into this podcast for honest, nuanced talks that get to the heart of why we play the way we do, offering a distinct advantage that has nothing to do with new equipment and everything to do with the space between your ears.
