Meaning, with Both arms straight = 3" ahead of Center of your Head to the back of the ball. At about the Left Ear for every shot but change your stance width.

The above procedure is not the same distance back of low point for every club. The Exact distance from low point will change per club. Longer Clubs farther back, shorter clubs closer. It makes a lot of sense.

Glad to read your posts that followed this one. For a second there, I thought you were defining low point as under the center of the head.

But to clarify, when the fella on the tape quoted Hogan as saying "The back of the ball shall be 3 inches forward of the lowest point in the arc....", Im thinking by "back of the ball" he meant the side of the ball you make contact with and by " 3 inches forward of ....." he means 3 inches before the low point. Otherwise the geometry seems way off to me.

Cheers
