YodasLuke suggestion I submit the following...

Here I am again… Two questions to start with, some will read these and think I am as dumb as a box of rocks …..

1. What is the relationship of the Target Line to the Line of Flight from the perspective of a line on the ground?
In TGM- both of these would be exactly the same. The Definition would be located in 2-E 4th paragraph, first sentence. Anotherwords, it is the direction the ball is headed milliseconds after it leaves the face of the club- but just in the horizontal sense- as you say "that line on the ground", ignoring loft. That is before Venturi forces take affect. Anotherwords, the direction your clubface is facing at separation.


2. What is the relationship of the Plane Line to the Line of Flight from the perspective of a line on the ground? (edited - Plane Line the same or not as Flight Line was the intent of the question being asked)
Generally speaking, If your hitting a straight shot- they are the same. If you're fading/slicing the Plane line is left of the flight line. If you're drawing/hooking the Plane line is right of the flight line.

3. What is the relationship of the Plane Line to the Target Line from the perspective of a line on the ground? (edited - Plane Line the same or not as Target Line was the intent of the question being asked)
See 1&2 above.

TGM references would be appreciated.
2-E 4th paragraph first sentence.
2-D-0 3rd paragraph, first and second sentence.
7-5 All (But especially important is the 2nd paragraph, 2nd sentence.
10-5 All (But especially the 1st paragraph)

Two final points-
1) There are obviously many other areas in the book that touch on this subject. For example, 2-F 3rd paragraph last sentence- refers to it and although he didn't spell it out- it's referencing a straight shot (saying the Plane line is usually the line of flight).
2) You probably can get more detailed/nitpicky etc- in regards to "Plane Line", low point? Impact?, etc, etc. And if you're intent is to dwelve deeper- all of those maybe areas of interest.

Rather than prejudice anyones response, I will refrain from providing mine. No tricks here, this is an honest attempt hoping to lift some fog and get a solid handle on this...

Thanks

Anyway, that's a start.
