"There is the Geometry of the Delivery Paths (and Lines) which your quote from the 5th does a superb job of describing. So this quote we would assume to be a statement of FACT. And if this is the case, then why have an Aiming Point at all? Why not just take the hands straight down the Straight Line Portion of the Delivery Path to the ball? "
12 piece,
i think this would be great!!!!
"The essence of Clubhead Lag technique is that it is always both aiming and thrust. Passive - it is primarily thrusting and lag pressure point. THe orbiting Clubhead does not seek out the ball - it seeks out the Deliviery line. But never directly only via the Right Forearm and the #3 pressure point per 2-F, 5-0 and 7-3. It is guided along that Line to the both arms straight configuration by the straight line thrust of the #3 pressure point toward the angle of approach quadrant of the ball or aiming point per 1-F, 1-L-9/10, 2-J-3, and 6-E-2."
now combine this with the straight line delivery path to the ball and we now have the delivery line and delivery path intersecting at impact.
sure we need our right forearm returning to its impact fix location but then we get 1-L-5 THROUGH 1-l-15 which is 11 out of the 21 characteristics of the basic golfing machine !!
but this has to be a great start for a precision downstroke !!
so aim your thrust straight line to a point at the upper portion on the inside aft quadrant of the ball with #3 pp.
unless you want a circle path or any of the other delivery paths that are not sraight line to the ball from the top because, as you note, everything is optional .
thanks,

I agree with you that this certainly makes perfect sense . . . HOWEVER . . . again there is Geometric Fact and then there are Illusions . . . which when they are UNDERSTOOD can be utilized to benefit the player. In this case the player can use an Aiming Point at which to direct or AIM pp3.
Also . . . the Impact Hand Location which we discussed earlier is an Illusion . . . from the player's perspective it SEEMS AS IF the hands cover the left toe . . . reality is different.
So bottom line as you said and as the genious that is Homer Kelley . . . we have options . . . lots of options some based in fact and others perception but perception can be reality too.
Many thanks to you as well. I hope that we have progressed. I know that sorting this out has helped me.
