Trial and error method is lacking. What I currently do: I have the student place the club on the horizontal plane with the arm and club at low point, then like a door move the club "up plane" until the player thinks that the clubface is now slightly open to the target line (I also use the magnet deal that attaches to the clubface to show where it is pointing) then the player lowers the arm and club onto the inclined plane. Is there a better method? Are there any flaws in what I do? OKIE, I may not be following... do you mean how to get set up consistently? It only took me 51 years, and Yoda to teach me! This is the preview for the premium video. Pay close attention to how Yoda has Mr. Gay setting up the same way EVERY time. http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/gallery...11/BGDVDPV.wmv Kevin __________________ I could be wrong.
