Aiming Point / Impact Fix Hand Location Procedure
Per 6-E-1, the Player can use either the Aiming Point Procedure, 6-E-2, or the Impact Hand Location Procedure, 7-8, for Power Package Delivery. The Aiming Point Procedure is an automatic and indirect equivalent of the Impact Hand Location Procedure. As Yoda has stated in an older thread:

Quote:
Both procedures produce identical Hand Location and Flat Left Wrist alignments at Impact.
Then, why is the Aiming Point Concept "mandatory for Control of any Snap Release" (6-E-1)?

By the way: In that other thread Yoda explained that the "Aiming Point of the Hands" that Ben Doyle teaches was not the Aiming Point procedure from 6-E-2, but rather the Impact Hand Location procedure of 7-8. Does anybody know why Ben uses the term Aiming Point for his procedure if it is not the Aiming Point from the book? I find that a little surprising - considering Mr Kelley's concern for terminology (1-H):

Quote:
The result is that this book provides a complete, unified golfing terminology. Even if a term offends, use it as indicated, anyway.
I do not mean to offend or criticize anybody by asking this, I am just curious.

Could it be that Ben's procedure together with the setup he teaches (ball always placed at the same distance from the left heel, so that a wider or narrower stance will change the distance between the ball and the left shoulder) makes for an indirect application of the Aiming Point concept from the book (in particular, the procedure presented as #2 at the end of 6-E-2, p. 86 of the 7th edition) even with an Impact Hand Location procedure?

Does that make any sense to you? I am struggling a bit to explain myself here.
