When I set up with a wedge for example, even in forward press, there is no point on the plane line that intersects my eye and my hands which appear well inside of the plane line at address. Am I doing something basic that is wrong here?
Dude's a little mixed up on his concepts . . . kinda mixes up impact hand location and aiming point. check 'em out in the book should clear up the confusion.
