Bobby Jones - Stroke pattern and Sequence

[Mathew]

Dear Matthew,

I've always considered Bobby Jones to have a tripple shift. Does it look as though when he gets to "Top" he shifts again to the elbow plane on the downswing instead of just driving down the turned shoulder plane?

You have described the correct procedure but are counting incorrectly. As always Homer uses precise key words - Plane Shift. So how many times does the plane shift ?

Elbow plane - Turned Shoulder plane = 1 shift
Turned Shoulder plane - Elbow plane = 1 Shift
==============================
Total =2Shifts

I think you are mistaking and counting thus: elbow plane (1) - turned shoulder plane (2) - elbow plane (3)........... asking how many planes has he been on ?

Then following on that presumption the double plane would then be mistaken as elbow plane (1) - turned shoulder plane (2) which is why you believe you need to come back down on the turned shoulder plane in a double shift stroke....
