Thanks BerntR

I must report. Decided to go down to a local course and "borrow" a practice green for a little chipin n' puttin. Puttin was ok, needs practice then will be good-to-go. Chipin was, for me, spectacular. Nice low, on line, compression with a sharp check and release on landing. or. throw it in higher and land soft. I was estatic. ALL from TGM and Yoda. I hope this wasn"t just a "career day" because I KNOW I did it right. I even had spectators, some obvious and the, U know, people that know what you are doing and kind of watch under their arm as they pretend to practice.

BUT. Back to why I cancled my planned time at the range and the problems I need to solve.

Aiming Point- I have relook at the DVD drill and the video where Yoda throws the dowel at the aiming point to the Ohs and Ahs of those around, I also found this important post:

The problems for me are: I know it is not possible to draw a straight line with the left arm and only rotating. the setting up parallel lines the slope related to right forearm angle at impact is confusing. First, it would determine location of TOP and second, To me it is the engineering easy solution- given the answer the solution becomes trivial. And I am still left with a guess.

Release type- I think I understand and can execute releases by trial and error for dirrerent swing lengths and/or power levels but I have no system for release type selection. I hope someone else has recognized this problem an found a solution.
