From the top of my head - what is alignments all about?

It's different from positions, I have been told. In what way? I can appreciate that you put (align) your body in a certain way as a pre-motion starting point - as the set-up. The arms and wedges in a certain way and let the motion begin with the right forearm in a leading role - and a hand controlled pivot to the top and then down again (a lot of downstroke waggles - avoiding the the dreaded OTT on my part) keeping the wedges and BRW intact, making sure that the hands are well in front of the ball (which you are swinging thru, not hitting at) with the FLW at impact and rolling of the left forearm (or is this a horizontal hinging?) in the thru swing/followthru (both arms straight - for the first time) into a full finish..

Sounds like a lot a positions for me - but maybe I just have tried to describe the motion the that alignments have set up for - for the motions make the shots. But here I'm not actually making a shot - I'm describing a make believe shot trying to use some alignment thoughts that I playing around with.

Any helpful comments?
