For my benefit, could you clarify what you mean by "use". Shaft or Sweetspot? thanks

Nicklaus on the TSPlane: http://asafgolf.free.fr/images/golf/...aus_profil.jpg

Norman: http://asafgolf.free.fr/images/golf/...n_profilar.jpg

Maybe he changed his swing since then.

So it's the shaft. Only, many times people say "such and such used the x plane", then I have a look and for much of the swing the shaft is not on that angle.

I wonder why so many ppl use the elbow plane on the downswing...

Is it because that's what they do naturally or that's what's taught/a result of what's taught?

They've just been told for so long that they had to shift back down. What mainstream instructor is teaching a zero shift on the turned shoulder plane? None. Every month in the magazines you read about how you get to a steeper plane going back and have to "drop it in the slot" or some nonsense on the way down. While that's certainly a viable option, it's not the only option nor the most efficient.

The sweetspot certainly doesn't want to fall back down. It just wants to take a straight line to the ball, following PP3.
