Question- What is the "aiming point concept" trying to "adjust" in my alignments? ie. is it impact hand location for the various clubs?, release hand location for the various clubs and release types? I am trying to understand the "what and why" and fit it in.
I concur with Mikes response above .
Impact hand location is another concept , related perhaps but different. Nothing wrong with monitoring that procedurally although it could be argued that those who think that is one and the same as the aiming point procedure are missing out on what Homers aiming point procedure really was.
The Aiming Point can be adjusted fore and aft of the ball along the Delivery Line of the Clubhead (not the plane line for balls back of low point) . If for example a player tends to leave his long levered driver shots to the right , moving the Aiming Point aft (back towards the right foot) of the ball a few inches will trick him or her into releasing earlier or perhaps more forcefully . This aids in the squaring of the face by impact. Ones Aiming Point can therefore change on a day by day basis.
Thats my take on it anyways. The other benefit is that it adds down and out to the stroke , to ones intentions. A throwing like motion at the aiming point precludes the common malady of swinging forward towards the target, Steering.
