Interesting point, may we discuss this?

So maybe you could try to watch the arm (Hinge Action) rather than the club face ?
I lay down two orange plastic rods as extensions of the Baseline of the Plane and EA/RFT at about a 35 degree or 40 degree angle covering the club head Path, I think this is the Angle of Approach. I then waggle emphasizing the club face. I waggle from Impact Fix and it feels very inside compared to Tracing which is a Swingers technique as you know.

The Swinger's Tracing feels like I am throwing my # 3 PP over my shoulder and a slight tug with a stationary head explodes the ball about a club further though I do not have a lot of confidence as to where the ball would go.

On the course, as a hitter, I just waggle the club face over the ball from Impact Fix and as long as my head is stationary, the ball performs as expected, either straight, fade or draw and some trajector modifications which are exciting. My hits yesterday were very heavy and deep and my question will be about accurate distances off grass usually. Any other insights are appreciated.
