IC, "no uncocking", seriously???? To help what? We're talking about Aiming Point.
My mistake.
For the some TGM students and for me, I know/suspect it is rather confusing to get to IMpact Fix, be able to shape shots dependably and control the target line, but lack power consistently.
I was hoping that perhaps because of the title of this thread, I might get help understanding why I am losing power through understanding the aiming point concept which I have read but cannot picture. Obviously, I showed my lack of understanding by asking a question which tends to happen with real questons. I won't stop asking sadly, I guess, for some of you.
Perhaps the Lyme disease meds are still clouding me up. But so what?
I answer hundreds of stupid questions a day, with more grace than shown here. I have discovered over the last couple of years that a lot of times students just need the encouragement to know they are getting warmer so they can discover the insight if they keep focusing on a certain concept. But that's my business and my concern as a professional teacher.
Thinking "win-win" is really helpful on an electronic posting site, I believe. Sometimes, really dumb questions can stimulate new trains of thought and new ideas. Otherwise, no one writes and no one answers except those that "know everything."
Lynn, happily, is a really good teacher and knows a lot.

Ict the aiming point can make your release automatic. The aim point can be utilized by simply picking a spot on the ground at, slightly in front of or slightly behind the ball. It is a very small range we're talking about here about a three inch range it's very precise. For the driver say have the aiming point slightly behind the ball and thrust the number three pressure point with a cocked left wrist directly at the aiming point this will create an automatic release and power can be metered out precisely. For a wedge move the aiming point slightly in front of the ball, 7 iron right at the ball. You will have to experiment with different aiming points for your own swing. However only once the mechanics of trigger delay and release are learned can you really utilize the aim point. Of course the farther forward the aim point the more delayed the release but don't get crazy with it, it's a small range this is where clampett and others got it wrong. You can't aim so far forward that there is no hinge no uncock and roll the release must sufficiently precede impact

Does JB Holmes use an exaggerated aiming point as he shows the Golf Channel on his video? I will experiment. I was aiming my # 3 at the inside quadrant of the ball as I drove my shoulder and Power Package down.

NO this is just another example of an individual with quasi-tgm info that they got wrong. he is driving the hands to the impact hand location. this is NOT the aiming point.
that is a good place to aim it.. inside aft quadrant

Pre-turned right hip makes Extensor Action easy and accurate. Pointing the #3 Pressure Point at an Aiming Point is all the invitation the golf club needs to accelerate through the point shaping high draws or low fades as required.
Thanks Whip!
