Probably getting a bit technical here. I'm a right eye dominant left handed player
The dominant eye only comes into play when putting I think
Has anybody looked into this and can give advice on how to set up?
Usually long putts is my problem, where I can be quite a way off my intended line
Any advice would be welcome

I am right handed, but left eye dominant. (I have also had Monovision laser eye surgery so that my left eye is my distance eye).
My teaching Pro suggested that I use my left hand to line up my putts, but since I am so strongly right handed, this does not come naturally!

I did a while back.

It was suggested as I play right handed but left eye dominant that a putter with zero offset would suit.

I'll admit that my putting did improve with that putter.

I've since moved on to something that more suits my eye.

I still putt just as good.

Also right handed, left eye dominant but for me it is centre shafted putters I can't get on with! Shaft looks like it is in the way!

Looks like no particular pattern here.
