How would I use the book to learn how to hit a draw, which starts right of the target and curves back to it? Specifically, where in the book can I find where it says what the alignment of the clubface should be relative to the target line at separation?
Todd . . . you probably should ask the other crowd . . . they know how it works . . .
I know how it works, too. I'm trying to find out from TGM "experts" if the book covers this in some way. I'm not trying to be "smart". I just really have a hard time understanding what Homer meant.

I have a ton of stuff of yours in my swing post compilations, this will be a great addition.
You make stuff like this so easy to understand with your pictures.
You are AWESOME!!!
Thanks Man!

Thanks Kevin, I don't know if you're aware or not, but the Swingers Alignments rely on what we call "Hinge Action". Unless you "Horizontal Hinge" you should use the Hitters and Hand Manipulators Alignments.
Daryl, your drawings are always very helpful ! Thanks !
I have a question though: you setup the swinger with a clubface at the target and a closed plane line, that mean that you rely on the clubpath to start the ball a little right of the target (and clubface), enough for the spin to bring it back to the target ?

Reason: correct typo

Yes, you've got it but keep in mind that the Clubface is Closed because the Ball was moved forward. If I need more than a 15 Yard Draw then I also need to Rotate my Grip but I continue using the Swingers Alignments.
The Alignments and Ball flight are very predictable as they are using Hitters Alignments. Small Amounts of Adjustments produce small curves. What I like most about using the Swingers Alignments is that it has "Fine Tuning" and you can dial in the exact amount of Divergence.
I hurried to put this together so here's the first try. Draw Alignments for Hitters and Swingers.
My copy is a 5th Edition, and most of the text that you posted is NOT in it. Guess I need at least a 6th Edition.
The only problem I see with that geometry is that if the clubface is aligned at the target, when the clubhead's direction of travel is not, during impact, then the ball will curve too much, ending up on the other side of the target.
Correction: That text IS in my book. It must have been "hiding". I still have no idea what it means.
