He recommends having the toes of the back foot even with the shot line. He uses the special phrase "up to the line" for this. Maybe "toe the line" is also used for this technique. Wilson does not recommend any "sliding" when getting into position.I believe Mark Wilson advocates toeing the shot line ? ...

Tor does a pretty good job of sliding or walking into the stance in this vid.
