Two Critical Alignments

If you do not hit the ground, then you have changed either the length of the lever (check that FLW and EA), or the Height of the machine (Bob) or Swayed the machine changing where the Low Point would have been.

If you keep the image simple, at Impact Fix you have a lower case "y" which is being lifted and taken through impact. If you start from Impact Fix its easy mentally to monitor Basic Motion. Start from say Standard Address and your "Y" becomes a "y" during the mini takeaway. If you don't take a divot it's likely you are going back to a Y at you hit the ball and so will most likely get all ball and not ball, big ball
Thanks, Paul. This is so important.

There are two radiuses -- radii, whatever! -- involved in the Golf Stroke:

1. From Left Shoulder to Clubhead (the Primary Lever and actual radius of the Stroke); and

2. From Left Shoulder to Ball.

At Impact, these two alignments must agree. Otherwise, the player Stubs (Shoulder to Clubhead radius greater) or Tops (Shoulder to Ball radius greater).

Fortunately, pre-emptive measures (to assure the mandatory synchronization) may be taken at Address and during its Routine.
