Homerson,

Good question. There are two different philosophies on aim. I will not get into my opinions yet; I will just simply give the different philosophies.

A bent plane line, lack of hinging, and very little speed control leads to bad aim by necessity. Meaning if the stroke is akward and mis-aligned the aim will need to be just to make a putt.

Bad aim on the other hand can take a person with great mechanics and begin to bend their plane line, mess with their hinging, and throw their lag pressure off. However, if the person is constantly monitoring these imperatives it would preserve some of their aim.

Think of it in terms of the full swing. A bent plane to the left with vertical hinging or throw-away will lead a player to aim right. The computer is a wonderful thing.

So do you work from mechanics to aim, or from aim to mechanics?
