The Delivery Line could be either the true Geometric Plane Line (Swinging) -- the straight line baseline of the Inclined Plane; or, the Angle of Approach (Hitting) -- the geometric equivalent of the Arc of Approach (2-J-3).

He added that the thought might be peculiar to him: He had spent so many years focusing on getting correctly to the Top that he needed a key to get him from the Top through Impact!

Congratulations to the nine percent of the voters who got it right. Now, let's all get out there and Trace!


Does trace mean feel as though the right arm is riding on the plane if it were a piece of glass? So if you use a table as the plane the right forearm would stay on the table all the way down through the ball?
