The string

A path is a chain of positions, not a slogan on a hangtag.

We stretch mason line at belt height and again at turf height. If those two strings disagree, the clubhead is climbing or diving while it travels. Otis writes both. A single arrow would hide the argument.

Scoring irons first. A driver path is a longer chain and we will stake it only after the irons have a pin. Hybrids join if they share the river bearing with the 4-iron. Putters are a different instrument; this loft does not pretend otherwise.

Bring the iron that already told on you toward Ellis Park. Leave the unused 3-wood in the trunk unless you actually walk NewBo with it.
