His left hand is way turned on the club no? Strong Single Action grip maybe? He's knuckles up. Just saying I agree with you ......his face angle at Top , his shaft lean .....its related to his strong left hand grip Im thinking. His #2 cocks and uncocks on the same plane as his Right Wrist bends. His wedges are not 90 degrees to each other but in line perhaps? (Lab coats please) His shaft lean is a not fully uncocked/released #2 angle.


I dunno. I got a Hogan grip myself , thumb on top but maybe Ted would comment. His left hand is turned. Wish I could retrain the thing to get a little stronger.

Just saying that without the turned left hand grip type those would be some weird positions yes but with .............its a different story. Shaft lean becomes #2 angle too. #2 angle is the same as Right Wrist Bend. Cats chasing dogs. Water running running up hill.

I got some Bobby Clampett film I should put up . A practice swing with a driver that looks just like Mr Doyle there and then the actual stroke with a more six oclock shaft lean. From Carnoustie last year at the Senior Open. Crazy beautiful stuff, but if he'd actually hit the driver with that amount of shaft lean it'd be fore right, given his grip type. Is this all something to do with the Ben Doyle version of the Aiming Point? The Impact Hands Location taken to an extreme with all clubs and sometimes begetting a super strong left hand grip to make it work , face wise? Great for shorter irons maybe? I dunno. Id love to get a lesson from Mr Doyle though. WAy off topic now, there are people on this board who have had many a lesson from Lynn, Ben , Alex, Jeff, Greg, Tom , Ted ...... We tend to bite our tongues on the differences out of respect. Which is due, but there are differences.
here you go . . . certainly practices what he preaches . . . but it is it the gospel?








clubface to the ground???
