Dr. Putahurtinonit . . . FANTASTIC PICS AND GROUND BREAKING THREAD!!!!

It's a dilemma for the novice Hitter, as most want to keep the Clubface square to the Plane Line. Even if they start correctly, they'll steer to match the two Lines of Flight. It seems rather instinctive.
And, yes, I do use 10-6-B.
This thread is AMAZING! It's unbelievable how a change in prespective can demonstrate something that is so subtle that most gloss right over it when reading the book.

Two additional points to be explored . . .

1. Ted . . . do you think we could get a demonstration of the 10-5-E line versus the 10-5-A line from an OVERHEAD PERSPECTIVE? I think this would clearly show a definite relationship to the on-plane right forearm. And help people see the geometry.

2. We spoke awhile back about a geometric relationship between the 10-5-A line and the 10-5-E line . . . are you prepared to present us with your thesis? I would love to see it and I think it would go a long way to getting people to understand all this "how far out to right field" and "no visual equivalent to a visual equivalent" stuff.

I placed a portion of your post in bold . . . I think this is something that we all could benefit from by a bit more expansion on the subject . . . HOW DO YOU GET A "NEOPHITE" HITTER TO ABANDON THE FEAR OF NOT HAVING THE FACE SQUARE TO THE PLANE LINE AND MATCHING THE TWO LINES OF FLIGHT?

This thread is pure genius! Superb job on the camera work! This will clear a bunch of fog for many . . . if they are willing to read and understand.

Great job!
