The more I look at Aiming Point concept the less sense it makes.
Impact fix hand location is the closest that makes any sense, but is not satisfactory. Trying to look at two things at the same time makes no sense at all and looking at something other than the ball makes even less.
OK, let’s define it as the hand position for trigger. The relationships of hand position at trigger and at impact are separated by the pulley and the pulley size is determined by, hand speed, release type and club.
Now I have just defined aiming point in terms that no one else has ever ventured into but all considered in makes as much or more geometrical sense.
I don’t see that this violates anything HK wrote.
DOES IT??
Again, I could be all wrong. So to save the world from another bad concept .....?
at 3:10-3:20 min. where the dowel strikes the ground.
This is it!!!
This is an important post- for me.
It is MY post #313.
That has 3 points of significance- not in an order of importance- definitely not in an order of importance:
a. #313- Donald Ducks license plate #
b. 313 AD - The year Constantine declared Christianity the religion of the Holy Roman Empire.
c. The post after my #312 where I FINALY absorbed the AIMING POINT concept. 6-E-2.
Let’s only comment on c. - The more I realize that this is not new, Yoda has demonstrated it numerous times.
It is a defining point on the pulley.
The point where the "dump" starts down the shaft. 12-3-0, 26 and 30.
I think I can use it along with Impact hand position to think geometrically how to coordinate hand speed, club length and "pulley" size.

Thanks again Yoda and HK.

The point where the "dump" occurs? Wow! Maybe? That would be then the same point where the vertically un-cocking left wrist fires or it's thumb snaps down? When I play my best golf (not saying much as it is a 78 so far), I know where my (Johnny Miller) brush point starts (where the Aim Point is???) and I slide the ball 2 inches or so back. Recall that I am a lousy driver but I can stick my wedges and short irons!
And Mr. Bucket, am I relieved to hear you say that your Aim Point for the driver is 2 feet back or so! I have been simply firing my right arm straight down from shoulder level from Standard Address and hitting the driver well for a couple weeks now. I think I have a very slow swing.

One additional point. Along with the normally discussed alignments there is . The LFW shall have the left wrist LEVEL at impact/low point. Along with rhythm aiming point is an important factor (for me) and must be planned and requires the adjustment and coordination of most other components so that the left wrist is level at impact.
Not only down but the "relative rate of down" is effected by the left wrist residual cock.
Also- Impact hands location is three dimensional. requireing Both, considerations of position and direction.
Just my opinion/personal observation.
Do you have another method of controlling left wristcock for level at impact?
