not only is it not high enough, but apex is not constant from one putt trajectory to another.with a curved zero line curving away from your ball, trajectory will be relatively "straight" at the start,it will curve a lot later near the hole.the same putt, same distance from the zero line, with a zero line curving in the other direction, the putt will curve soon and will be relatively straight at the end of the putt. two different apexes even though the amount of break is the same on both putts

Taking the course makes these videos priceless because they reinforce what is taught in the class... Putting practice will have a whole new meaning...
For this putt if you aimed straight at the hole, the ball would break well below. If this ball came to rest on the fall line below the hole would that point represent the aimpoint on the other side of the hole. hope that makes sense. Figuring apex seems easy enough, finding an aimpoint on the fall line appears quite challenging. Any help is appreciated. If this constitutes letting the cat out of the bag, then I understand.
@fx1golf If you can visualize the Apex of the putt, place a tee in that position on the green. Then from the point you are putting from, roll some putts with the intention of having the ball start on a higher line so it can curve through the apex area. The line you start the putt on will be a guess until you learn the AimPoint System with a certified instructor.
I spoke with Mark Sweeney, the inventor of AimPoint Technologies regarding your question. As of now, he has not come across any evidence in golf literature describing players using an "AimPoint" in this fashion.

Thanks for inquiring. I guess they just knew it, but had no idea how to explain it. Thanks for the video (especially the graphics.)

Cool graphics to show the aim line relative to the apex point. How do you recommend practicing this approach to putting?

Is there any evidence in golfing literature that expert players were aware of the aim point concept?
