sounds perfect!
the concept of "impact fix" seemed so quirky when i first read TGM... but it was only because i took impact for granted. In fact nobody in over 20 years golf had taught me the truly crucial moment of the swing... and my impact was haphazard at best!

Now i know what impact alignmnent is all about...impact fix is a key component of address routine!

Another "aha" moment was when i read "Search for the perfect swing" section on stance and alignment... they compare the feet positions of 10 consecutive driver set ups for an amateur and a pro.

The pro's feet are almost always in the same spot, minimum variation... the amateur's are haphazard...

After reading this I realised why Ben Doyle gets the student( see gallery section Ben Doyle video) to set up exactly like he wants it... a precision machine will only give accurate results if the same precision is given to its alignments!

These bits are no longer the boring bit of the swing!
