I was pulling his leg, but for the record, he did explicitly refer to real golf when he said that in reality you do this and that and "would not aim".

(
"In real life it would be like place ball on wood stick then hit the ball directly no aiming.") Wood stick = pin, I assume. So he refers to a drive in the real world.
Well,
you must aim the drive. I know - since it gives me nothing but troubles. I spray my first shots off the tee in a 35° arc left and right off the intended target line.
