Ted - would I be correct in assuming that your plane line is right of intended target, and at separation, the clubface is 'closed' to the plane line but 'open (right of)' the intended target line? Would produce a shot that starts left of the plane line, right of the target line and draws toward the target.

There are TWO lines . . . the clubface adheres to the true geometric 10-5-A plane, which for hitters purposes is the TARGET LINE. The ball leaves at right angles to leading edge. BUT for the hitter . . . he is using the SURROGATE 10-5-E Plane Line . . . the OUT TO RIGHT FIELD LINE.

So the THRUST OF THE RIGHT FOREARM IS OUT TO RIGHT FIELD, but the leading edge's relationship is to the TARGET LINE not the 10-5-E Plane Line. So take that stumpy nub Right Forearm and PUSH IT OUT PUSH IT OUT WAY OUT! That's your THRUST DIRECTION . . . BUT you want to make absolutely certain that you keep your paddlewheel motion and don't let CF make you into a Horizontal Hinger because that ='s hello left jungle where the elephants go to die . . . DEEEEEP DARK RECESSES OF THE LEFT FORREST.

Ballgame! . . . HOw about that geometric dealie-oo that gives us the relationship of the 10-5-A to the 10-5-E?
