Angle of Approach Procedure Basics

If so, I have a problem closing the loop on this Angle of Approach procedure.
The intended inclined plane for this stroke has a 10-5-A configuration. The 10-5-E Delivery Line is just that - a delivery line that is a visual equivalent to the 10-5-A configuration. So if the 10-5-E delivery line is covered beyond low point, then the clubhead will be above the intended plane. The intended (geometric) plane line will be bent, violating a Basic Imperative.

I'm sure there is a flaw in my interpretation. Maybe it just "seems as if" the clubhead is above plane? I could use some help getting past this point.

Thanks.
3Putt,

Yes, the Clubhead continues to cover the Angle of Approach Delivery Line beyond Low Point. The linear Right Triceps thrust drives the Clubhead above the original Plane during the Follow-Through. Visualize Arnie Palmer and his thrust to 'right field' and his 'whirly bird' Finish.

The straight line Angle of Approach Delivery Line is arbitrarily determined via the Impact and Low Points of the Geometric Plane Line (Square Plane Line per 2-J-3). Once that Delivery Line is established, the original Plane Angle and Line are no longer utililized and thus no longer relevant. The steepness of the new Plane Angle agrees with the Angle of Approach thus established.
