Most commonly done subconsciously . "Done by feel" in common speak . Hand / eye. IMO. You get a feel for the stick in your hands , how it "swings" with a practice swing or waggle and then hit the ball having made a suitable adjustment to the feel / effort needed to make that particular lever switch ends and arrive at its Fix alignment at Impact.

In one sense, the Aiming point as a spot along the Arc of Approach is a way of tricking yourself into making the club release in a speedier , slower manner so as to reach its Fix Alignment more correctly. Done via trial and error . IMO. Leaving your driver out to the right ? You could move the Aiming Point ever so slightly back along the arc of approach to trick you into applying the force necessary to square the club quicker.. so to speak.

There are other applications too , concepts relating to Aiming Point.

This aint geometry of the circle either but we're gonna need it to understand the Homerian view of the manner in which a golfing master hits the golf ball. Uh if that's possible .. tbd. gonna need a little help from our friends.



FROM THE 6TH EDITION.
The quote from TGM- 6-E-2 -6th Edition - is one of the most confusing - has anyone put a update together that would update it- maybe it will become clearer what HK intended to say?
