The Delivery Path of the Hands and the Aiming Point of the Thrust are concepts unique to The Golfing Machine. Collectively, they constitute Component #23 and are illustrated in Photos 9-3-6/11.
As Golfbulldog and Sonic_Doom have observed, the actual Deivery Path of the Hands is not nearly as 'long' as illustrated. However, as Drew has pointed out, with Axis Tilt, it can and does exist, at least momentarily. And the Delivery Path of the Thrust is always the Straight Line toward the Aiming Point.
For the benefit of all, we need illustrations so we might intelligently discuss this most important concept. To that end, I have asked Annikan to re-post his photos plotting the Line Path from an earlier thread. He will have them up soon.
Thanks in advance, Annikan!
Thanks Yoda and Annikin, if I can see it, better still - feel it, then I am a believer. Look forward to the pics.
Energy efficient light bulbs beaming bright now! and only a small carbon footprint!
Thanks for the rapid response Annikan and Yoda - I see that PP3 is plotted and the delivery paths of the swings vary accordingly.
I think that the majority of pro players i had assessed earlier ( on V1 software) would fit into a circle delivery path... but varying in radius. More dynamic power hitters having smaller radius... Sergio Garcia must be pretty straight line though~?
I would say that Ben Doyle's downswing has the most obvious straight line. Easy to see because he takes it to the top and not end ( but then if I can make it to start up swivel by Ben's age then I will consider myself lucky !! ).
Ben, I believe, states that he is "pivot powered" but "mind in hands". His hands ( PP3) never leave that straight line until pulley.
No matter what you call it his hands are feeding back ( command post) to his pivot!! No one would ever teach Ben's pivot as it is now ... but it does everything a pivot is required to do = move the hands where they need to go, trace a straight line and sustain lag... the fact that his zone 1 is able to achieve this despite the individual limitations that age has placed upon his body proves, to me at least, that his hands (mind) are truly controlling his pivot!

Now I see it ...thanks.
It will help alot of people... I can't stop telling people about Homer and the society of people that he inspired!
Neither can I, unfortunately.
In the book, if you look closely there is a faint black line going from the delivery path and down to the ball. In that sense it is a straight line, I believe.
