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.

I could be wrong. I have been before, and will be again.
Trying to get the discussion back to my initial question:
"Why is the Aiming Point Concept "mandatory for Control of any Snap Release" (6-E-1)?"
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.
