A blind-hole locating system wherein a drill jig, which is to be removably attached to the proximal end of a given intramedullary nail, incorporates outrigger structure for support and orientation of one or more drill guides, such that positioning and alignment with one or more bone-screw holes of the nail can be checked and ascertained as a preliminary step, and such that a precise spacer or stabilizer carried by this jig can be known to contact the nail, on an alignment transverse to the nail and to a geometric plane which includes the nail axis and the axis of at least one of the bone-screw holes of the nail, such stabilizer contact being achieved only for the case of correct drill-guide alignment with one or more bone-screw holes.
