So, the Right Forearm and #3 Pressure Point -- the Right Forearm Flying Wedge -- always Traces either the Plane Line or the Angle of Approach Line. With the Plane Line procedure, this causes the Clubhead itself to likewise Trace the Plane Line and at the same time, to Cover the Plane Line's curved Visual Equivalent, the Arc of Approach. In contrast, as stated above, when utilizing the Plane Line's linear Visual Equivalent -- the Angle of Approach -- the Clubhead does not Trace the Angle of Approach. Instead, it Covers it (2-J-3-B) (and, in so doing, steepens the Plane Angle). Otherwise, there would be an 'Angle of Approach to the Angle Approach', and this is a geometric impossibility.

A player who Traces (not Covers) the Angle of Approach with the Clubhead will actually have Closed (per 10-5-E) his original Plane Line. And this will have destroyed that true Geometric Plane Line (2-J-3) that was the very basis of the Angle of Approach procedure itself. The same would be true for a Swinger attempting to approach the Arc of Approach from the 'inside' -- there is no 'arc of approach' to the Arc of Approach. In other words, there is no 'visual equivalent' of the Visual Equivalent.

Bottom line: For a precision Clubhead Delivery into Impact, Hitting or Swinging, the player can always choose to Trace with the Forearm, Pressure Point and Clubhead the true geometric Plane Line. Alternatively, he can choose to Trace with the Forearm and Pressure Point and Cover with the Clubhead one of its two Visual Equivalent Lines, the curved Arc of Approach (usually Swinging) or the linear Angle of Approach (usually Hitting).

WOW - the whole passage was great but this is the first time my brain has had a glipse of what this section was all about - thanks - can't say I have "got it" 100% yet but this has been a hammer blow to this particular egg in my incubator! ( hopefully not scambled egg but encouragement enough for the little chick to get going!)

thank you, Yoda.
