Thank you.
(BTW,I used to practice at the driving range near East Coast Park
when I was married to a Singaporean,many years ago)

Ciao
libero,

The lowest point of the swing is always opposite the left shoulder. Check out this diagram courtesy of Rob Noel, GSEM.



Therefore, to answer your question, you need not find your lowest point for all clubs, its there already - opposite the left shoulder with all clubs.

Notice that the low point of the swing is UNDERGROUND, below the impact plane line.

Per 1-L-13, "The Clubhead travels Down-and-Out until it reaches "Low-Point"."

As mentioned in my previous post, if you have the same position for all the clubs, i.e. 1 inch inside the left heel, you have to change your aiming point for every club.

Aiming point is a point where you direct Thrust.

That driving range is called Parkland Driving Range. If you are ever back to visit, just drop me a PM. We can go hit balls together.
