[DOCW3]

I have been trying to find Homers personal preference for the right forearm at address. I've deduced that when swinging or hitting from impact address the RF being on plane from the start would be mandatory. Does Homer prefer it onplane from the start at standard (Hands midbody)address when swinging and hitting as well? It will be a big change and i would like to be sure i am travelling the right path.

I was attracted to The Plane of the Right Forearm thread because of the photos posted by Mathew but share your RF questions carried over to this thread.

I have done some research with the book starting with 2F and 7.6 from On Plane in the index. As expected there are many cross references relative to the RF and maybe only an AI can provide closure. However, pending an appearance, a clue to your answer may be in 6-B-3-0-1 Flying Wedges. Here Mr. HK writes "the right forearm and the clubshaft are, in like manner, positioned on the plane of the right wrist bend at right angles to the left arm plane...........mandatory during the entire motion. Hitting or Swinging......."

Since (1)the right wrist is bent at impact fix and not at adjusted address and (2) impact fix would precede the adjusted address position, it could be that IF is where the RF is intended to be positioned. If this is correct RF positioning may not be an adjustment for AA.

From 7-3, the RF position at the top differs for hitting and swinging. Also, 2-J-3 is a very tough read but describes delivery lines for the RF and two different but interchangeable procedures: "On Line" or Visual Arc of Approach for the Swing and Cross Line or Straight line angle of approach for Hit.

BTW, if the angle of the right wrist bend is cross line for IF, this would explain the appearance of the RF/shaft in 9-2-2 #2.

FWIW. Hopefully there are comments and "calibration" as warranted.
