I happen to have had a lesson today with Mr. Doyle at the Quail Lodge. He is doing quite well and worked with me a couple of hours.

During the leson I asked him about the aiming point. He took out a small chunk of turf near my left foot and said that was the aiming point. I asked about #3 pp, and he stated that was to monitor lag and direct the club head to the inside aft of the ball.

I am having a playing lesson with him tomorrow and will be happy to follow up if anyone has any questions arising out of what he said.

Naturally, working wth Ben is a great joy. Signed my Golf Machine Book. Going to his house tomorrow and play his par three course and meet his wife.

An Automatic Snap Release happens too fast to be consciously controlled. Since it is impossible to consciously deliver the Hands and Club to their Impact Hand Location alignments (Fix / 7-8 ), you need an alternative procedure. The Aiming Point concept produces the desired alignments automatically, but indirectly, i.e., without thought of Impact Hands Location.

Thats two "Hall of Fame" posts in a row Lynn. Thanks for this......and that.

So much for manipulating a Snap Release via an Impact Hands Location.....and I hadnt even started yet. Phew! Back to my sorry Random Sweep Release. I just wanna have a snap release like everyone else though! Its not fair.
