Your Eyes Control Your Shot: The Quiet Eye Deep Dive

By Any Means Coaches

In this episode, we break down a mini meta-analysis of three peer-reviewed studies on the quiet eye, or the visual behavior that predicts shooting performance better than mechanics, “form,” or feel. We look at how elite shooters use their eyes differently, what actually happens to gaze under pressure and fatigue, and why the final fixation on the rim is the single strongest predictor of accuracy across conditions.

You’ll walk away understanding the underlying science, how contest and intensity disrupt visual control, and what coaches can do to train quiet-eye stability on the court. This is the foundation behind consistent shooting, and it’s backed by real data.
