I don't know if anything I wrote earlier is taking me closer or farther from the mechanics involved. However, there is no doubt in my mind as to the correctness of 6-B-3-0-1. Also I have no doubt in my mind what defines the “Inclined Plane”. And, if 6-B-3-0-1 is true, then the entire Primary Lever would need to lie flat against the inclined plane. That’s my dilemma. I’m convinced that if we dissect the swings of everyone on this site, we’ll see something a little different. On the other hand, when viewing a swing from down-the-line, the acid test (on this site too) is drawing a straight line from the ball through the right shoulder (at the top of the swing) and examining whether or not the Clubshaft lies flat against it. I understand the validity of this test and I agree with its purpose. I can make the Clubshaft lie flat on the inclined plane and have a flat and cocked left wrist. I just can’t do it while cocking or uncocking the left wrist and comply with 6-B-3-0-1. So, What am I missing? Where are the big Guns? They’re waiting. Do you see my new Avatar? I’m getting ready for their arrival. LOL. Good Lord... You guys are giving me down-thread blackout. Let's keep it simple for a few posts. But, I do LOVE the avatar. P.S. I'm wearing my helmet, "like my momma always said". Let's start with a Turned Shoulder Plane (10-6-B). Can we all look at the pictures, #1 and #2. If her Right Shoulder is moving to the plane with a Flat Backstroke Shoulder Turn. Then, logic would say that the Left Shoulder is moving away. #2 would certainly show that the entire Left Arm Flying Wedge is not on plane. At Top, we have the Right Shoulder, the #3 PP, the Clubshaft, and the Sweetspot on plane. The Left Shoulder nor the Left Arm have a chance to be on the Turned Shoulder Plane. As you posted...6-B-3-O-1. "…the entire Left Arm, the Clubshaft and the back of the Left Hand are ALWAYS positioned against the same flat plane - the plane of the Left Wristcock motion.” Not, against the same Turned Shoulder Plane. Don't get the plane of the Left Wristcock motion and the Turned Shoulder Plane confused. __________________ Yoda knows...and he taught me! For those less fortunate, Swinging is an option.
