Correctly executed, DDL, the Aiming Point Concept (6-E-2) produces alignments identical with those of the Impact Hand Location Concept (7-8 ). The former is the indirect equivalent of the latter (6-E-1). But as Homer says, "When in doubt, there is always the Impact Fix Hand Location procedure" (6-E-2).

Note: The as-yet-unpublished 7th Edition of The Golfing Machine includes a revision to 6-E-1. In the 5th sentence (6th Edition page 82), change 'Flat Left Wrist' to 'Impact Hand Location.'
