This is a more precise way of looking at it; The club doesn't swing on a plane, it swings on more if a curved path as Dr. Mann pointed out. I agree with him on this because I've analyzed countless swings when I was learning all this TGM stuff and if you put a dot on the clubhead frame for frame and then connect the dots they don't form a straight line, they follow a slight curve. Planes are named according to the reference points on which they are set. As an example, the hands plane would be a plane that was resting on the hands, a shoulder plane would be a plane resting on the shoulders. If a player is said to be using a shoulder plane the curve of the clubs path will pass through the shoulder. If the player is said to be using an elbow plane the curve of the clubs path will pass through the elbow. So to sum it up, the club follows a path and that path will pass through a point the plane uses as a reference. David Laville, G.S.E.M. The Golfing Machine Authorized Instructor TB-8982

In A Nutshell: If the base of the plane is a straight line, then.... Then the higher the arms elevate the club, the shaft * must * become steeper to continue to point to the baseline of the plane. bg

At my GolfTec lesson they showed me a swing of Tiger's at the 3/4 position where the shaft is parallel to the shaft address plane. That's what Haney teaches, and I guess Tiger has jumped onboard. I'll see if I can dig up a photo.

Kellie Kehnie comes clos....and where is she today? I'm not going to argue this to death, but, if the shaft is parallel to adress at 3/4, it's off plane; and Tiger isn't there. He just isn't. You're a good guy Bill, but you'll need to show me that for me to believe. Be well. bg |
