hi,
i am at this point halfway thru the yellow book, reading much on the forums and trying to synthesize and apply it to a swing...the following thoughts and images are in my head and i'd appreciate some feedback if i am on the right track, veering off, or just plain lost...anyway, in playing around with wrist cock and bend with a club in my hands in front of me i noticed that the club shaft seems to rotate around the point where my two hands meet...if i grip the club correctly this is essentially PP#1 and it also seems to me to be the point at which the left and right flying wedges intersect...i have taken this point to be "central control" and been practicing placing it at impact fix such that it blocks my view of my lead big toe (as i look down at my hands)...i am using that point (my lead big toe) as my aiming point (i haven't been sure what that meant, figured i would get to it in the book at some point, but am using this for now) and working on bringing this point up the plane to the TOS and then back down with wedges and lag intact and "obliterating" my aiming point with my "central control" point...in slow mo/mirror work this also seems to have PP#3 "tracing the plane line"...it also seems to do well in the "garage range" unless i succumb to my old nemesis dropping the trail shoulder then bad things happen...thanks in advance for any imput!

Yes, you are on the right track.
This is what the EdZ drills are all about (see FGI's 'getting published' section post by me, you many need to search as it was posted a while back)
The "central control point" is what it is all about, it is the 'point of force' that stays on the same plane, back and through. It is the point that is either pulled, pushed - or both.
It is the HANDS and what they do. Understand that point, and lag, and rotation and you've got it. Drive the FORCE DOWN into the ground in front of the ball.
