Yup, that's actually what I've been working on a lot lately, going from End to Top without losing my way. I'm gonna get there.
Hey Kamandi
See 6-E-2 THE AIMING POINT CONCEPT. Its the Hands that we direct in a straight line at and through the Aiming Point.
Now I know your going to say, "straight line? What the...." but read point #1. Also, Thrust is always Straight Line by definition.
See also 10-23-A and compare it to 10-23-C where going to End requires a "retracing" of the Arc from Top to End prior to Thrusting. Notice too if you havent already the shadowy arrow that represents the Direction of Thrust towards the Aiming Point which is assumed to be the ball for simplicity. That arrow is easy to miss but its in all those photos. From Top it is Down and Out! Not Forward, not at all. No Sir.
This is the alternate procedure to Tracing the Straight Line Base Line with the #3 Pressure Point. Which has an element of Forward to it. If your missing some Down try the Aiming Point Procedure. One of my favourite sentences in the book is from GEOMETRY OF THE CIRCLE, 2-N-0 CLUBHEAD LINE OF FLIGHT: ".......Both the Lag Pressure Point and the Clubshaft must so relate to the selected Plane Line OR Angle of Approach -to the geometric or the visual-but don't try to Monitor both at the same time because, though equally dependable , they need not be identical in execution AS LONG AS THE CLUBSHAFT HOLDS A STRAIGHT LINE RELATIONSHIP TO A STRAIGHT LINE--POINTING AT A STRAIGHT LINE....." I like the part about them not needing to be identical in execution.........cause they sure dont seem identical to me.
(Me personally, I have my aiming point 2" ahead of the ball towards the target for a wedge shot and 2" my side of the ball for a driver..........its a way of managing the time required to make a longer shaft switch ends and works like a dream for the driver).
PS Read 8-6 THE TOP. "A static period of alignment and relationship corrections until the deliberate aiming of the #3pp....."
