The Alternate Target Line is the line that the Sweetspot covers, also referred to as the Right Forearm Angle of Approach.

This "Angle of Approach" would be just that for Hitters but for Swingers it becomes an "Arc of Approach" because of the pivot rotation. If no rotation - Hitting - then it's Angle of Approach.


Thanks in advance
The alternate target line is a line that connects the dots from the impact point to low point. Every swing complies to an alternate target line that is on-plane. You are correct that the Swinger could use the Arc of Approach (which is the Arc that connects the impact point and low point) versus using the true Geometric Plane Line. The Hitter on the other hand using the Angle of Approach Procedure dismisses the true Geometric Plane and used the 10-5-E Plane Line that IS the Angle of Approach (or Alternate Target Line).

The difference is that the Swinger complies with the Geometric Plane line by staying on the Arc but the Hitter using Angle of Approach Procedure continues OUT thus not in compliance with the Original 10-5-A line.

Holla fo' a Swedish Meatball!
