Can aiming point be used like this?

This is going to be hard to describe but I always thought of aiming point as a procedure to locate the hands location at impact in relation to the ball, meaning if they are farther forward or back or whatever, but there relation was parallel to the ball target baseline.......what I did not realize till yesterday was that this concept also can play a part in the hands location in relation to the body, measuring closer or further away from it........now I drive my hands not only forward but down and inward (I am shift the baseline left in my pattern, for a fade). I have no clue if this makes sense. This is a pretty easy way to move the baselines around. For a hang back head and shoulder drop slider all this did was stop the slide and move the right shoulder more around and down plane. Its almost impossible not to have a flat left wrist. Drive #1 low and left, blast off #4 right before impact. Definitely a hitting procedure but I still have plenty of pivot.

Very interesting, I would love to hear more discussion on this. My thought is that it may not be part of Aiming Point as Homer Kelley teaches, but could be a great addition. Perhaps even tied to 2-J-3, another area I need to get a better grasp of...
