TECHNICALLY NO... The plane line is defined as the base line at the Inclined Plane (where bottom of the plane where it comes into contact with the ground). Look at 10-5 pictures, the lines and the clubhead. If you hit the ball off the hosel by tracing the Plane Line, then you have a bent Plane Line.
....but I said "when you Trace with the ClubSHAFT"...I mean specifically- the ClubSHAFT. It comes out of the Hosel. So if you trace with it....technically (I put that in CAPS but it could be italicized too) it would hit the Hosel, no?
i.e.- if you were to trace the Plane Line (that goes right through the ball) with the ClubSHAFT (as if it physically extended out the sole of the club for a few inches....).

That's exactly what I mean.

I hope I have properly understood what you said in your post...

If you use the a Plane Line that has the ball on it, then yes tracing it with the clubshaft would have the hosel hit it.
That plane line would be the Target Line, one might argue it is the sweetspot plane line, however if you move the club so that the shaft/hosel in on that line, then the sweetspot has move to the outside of the ball, etc.
Yeah I think we are on the same page.
I think I need to complete my diagram, maybe that would make it clearer, at least to see how the mechanic are, still the Feel is what the golfer should be using to make the golf stroke which is what Homer was stating.
