Impact address should be a true impact rehersal, body, arms, and hands. A forward press of the hands doesn't suffice.

They do return to a 'square' position in startup, but only for a moment as they bypass that position on the way to top.

TF - What amount of forward slide/tilt and open shoulders and hips (?) you'll say you have in your impact-fix-address?

I hope this doesn't sound like a unenlightened reply to my friend from Denmark. But, it is whatever amount that gets my right forearm exactly behind the shaft for impact support. I'm sorry I can't give you an exact amount, but it's not position golf. It's alignment golf, so my concerns are the flying wedges. Whatever my body must do to accomplish the tasks, so it begins. I hope that makes sense to you.

My new address routine is to walk into set-up, in a Ben Doyle kind of way. Setting up the right wedge, forearm on-plane, wrist bend, leading edge squre to planeline. Then I'll set my feet square to the plane line. Next step is to put my left hand on and check that it's flat.
I'll then square up my knees, hips and shoulders. I guess the last step is something you don't do. Am I right?
