I love it when right handers have to translate left handed golf speak ! The goal of course is to have the ball hit the noodle. Remember the ball is traveling above the plane you are trying to swing on. So - Your hand are tracing the plane line which leads thru the base of the noodle not a point higher up on the noodle. What is stunning is the visual appearance of how far left the noodle is of the target. Over the years the plane line has appeared to be closed to my stance. I am hoping that I can stand in this hitting station and reprogram my old brain to see it as parallel to my stance. Anyway down and out, inside aft quadrant of the ball, aiming point, alternate target line have taken on a new meaning. One of my pet peeves is taking a lesson and have the instructor correct my alignments and ball position. One would think you could have a least gotten that right. I do think that using Ben Doyles walking into the ball with Lynn's modifications, using dowels on the ground has helped. But I know my brain is unreliable, therefore that is why it helps to have a human observe you. If I can get the straight right and the distance right I will have to learn to make those birdie putts.
