Delivery Lines -- Geometric And Visual

Donn,

The Geometric Plane Line is the Baseline of your Inclined Plane. It is the 'gutter' on your through-the-waist 'pitched roof' Angled Plane of Rotation.

To properly Deliver the Clubhead into the Ball, the simplest procedure is to Trace this 'gutter' -- the Delivery Line -- with your Right Forearm, Bent Right Wrist and #3 Pressure Point. As you Trace this Impact Point Plane Line -- that is, point at it (with the Clubhead's Sweet Spot) through the Impact Interval -- you simultaneously are Tracing its parallel Down Plane Low Point Plane Line.

However, as an alternative, you may choose to 'cover' -- as opposed to 'point at' -- either of its two Visual Equivalents:

(1) The Curved Clubhead Blur (Arc of Approach) through Impact and Low Points; or

(2) The Straight Line Clubhead Blur (Angle of Approach) through the same two points.

As always, Homer Kelley did not dictate your choices...

He merely illuminated them.
