Delivery Path Angle: is an Alternate Target Line. This is not the Plane Line or the Target Line. It is the direction that the Back of the Left Hand and the #3 PP are facing/pointing at Impact. You probably use this procedure, without knowing it, whenever you play golf. Whenever you take 4 or 5 short practice strokes before a chip, you’re memorizing the “Delivery Path Angle” (where the Back of the Left Hand and the #3 PP are facing/pointing at Impact). The Thrust is "Cross-Line" (when he ball is positioned behind Low-Point), but because the Clubhead is “Hook-Faced", you know the Clubface will strike the exact Back of the ball regardless of Thrust being toward the inside aft quadrant of the Ball. So, you’re chipping a little out to Right Field but the ball will go where the Clubface is Aiming, which is along the True Target Line.

So, players that "Open" their Stance and Plane Line for Chip Shots are aligning the Clubface because the Ball is Played back in their Stance (Playing the Ball Back in your stance "Opens" the Clubface). Hitters simply Rotate the Club in their Grip.
