A million Copies will be sold. It would become the standard text book for high school and college. Expanded and including video.

The current Owners can't see further than a Bull in a Cow Barn.

Don't get me started.

Would make a great iPad app similar in execution to the Martha Stewart Cookie Cookbook (uh oh, losing my macho streetcred here...)

AFT of the shaft is difficult to gage cause it depends on how much forward lean you like at impact and how much you like to hit down on the ball
I find that when I look down at my clubface I prefer to have shut looking clubface then I can easily put PP3 where the back of the clubhead is.... then square up my clubface.
Or keep at impact fix

The nonpivot short game is a different story.PP3 is 3oclock with square or open clubface.

It's a lot easier to just get to the top and use the right shoulder to drive PP#3 toward the aiming point .

So #*$@ the BS alignments and just focus PP#3 to aim pt. ? That's what I been doing and it would work fine if all the fairways and greens were 50 yds wide.

Thanks?

#*$@ing the BS alignments isn't recommended. You could trace the plane line with PP#3, putting the LFW on the Turned Shoulder Plane as you swing to the top.

Hitters Load against the Fleshy Part of the Index Finger.

If you use maximum #3 Accumulator Angle (in the Left Hand) and Release on the Elbow Plane, then the Pressure is likely to move against the Fleshy part of the Right index finger on the side of the Shaft (Aft Side because of Elbow Location). But, with a Small amount of #3 Accumulator angle and a Turned Shoulder Plane, the Pressure is likely, during Release, to remain against the First Knuckle of the Index Finger where it was Loaded on the Wrist Cock (Elbow Location a between the Belt Buckle and Right Side).

It's very interesting to note, that when using 10-2-B with 10-18-B (Double Wrist Action) that the Loading is against the Fleshy Part of the Right Index Finger. This is correct because the Fleshy part is on the same line as the Double Wrist Cock. Simultaneous Release with a Horizontal Hinge.

So, for a Swinger, the more Bent your Left Wrist at the Top of your Backswing, the more the shaft is against the Fleshy Part.
Its only recently that I can comprehend this post.

Your statement :Release on the Elbow Plane, then the Pressure is likely to move against the Fleshy part of the Right index finger on the side of the Shaft (Aft Side because of Elbow Location).

I can now feel this in my swing, it is very cool. I always wondered why I could not feel this but recently a key alignment has been fixed and the pressure on #3 increased dramatically and immediately.

Aft simply means on the back of, inside means the part of the ball closest to the players feet, the goal is an 'inside-out' impact although it is not an inside out plane, but the ball is to be struck before low point, the club still traveling down and out towards low point through impact. Set your flat left wrist and clubface and put the #3 pp on the aft side of the shaft perpendicular to the line of the left wrist cock giving you a strong single action grip and the flying wedges. The plane o te left wrist cock perpendicular to the line of the right wrist bend.
Please don't attempt to re-write the book especially if it's 600 pages. The only simplification of the book is the authorized instructor. The #3pp IS the first fleshy pad of the index finger.

Ok agreed, if that part of the finger touches the aft but can you still get the first knuckle on the Top when you do that?

At the risk of seeming overly precise :

6-C-1 PRESSURE POINTS. Homer says "first joint of the Right Hand index finger where it touches the Clubshaft". See 10-11-0-3 PRESSURE POINT #3 where he talks about the swinger loading the first knuckle of the forefinger , the Rotated Lag Pressure Point. 6-H-O IMPERATIVES , E. Hitting lists Fixed Lag Pressure Point while F. Swinging lists Rotating Lag Pressure Point.

Small point maybe but it can really change a Swingers Lag Loading , wrist conditions during cocking , direction of loading etc if the right hand is not attached to the Top of the handle . No lag pressure sensor to load against , throw against , no sensor for drag loading down either.

This grip below, what Lynn calls the "question mark right index finger" with the knuckle on Top and the first joint on the Aft , will scare the heck out of slicer but its got good reason to look like this in terms of lag pressure and its Rotation. Rotation from knuckle to first joint.....an area that spans the pad yes but its not fixed in one spot on the pad for the Drag Loader who then accelerates Radially.

Interestingly lag pressure at the #3 "pad" , ( associated with Radial Acceleration) was the last thing Hogan talked about in the Coleman video. He called it the "pad" too.

Sorry I've really got into loading that knuckle at Top. It fixes off plane loading , cocking automatically.
