You can also use Bungie Cord to visualise the Straight Line Delivery Path of the Hands going downplane on the Downstroke.
Just have one end of the cord under your left toe (or better still, tucked under somewhere where the ball would be) and stretch until your hands are Right Shoulder high which is the Top location. Then just take your Hands down that straight line path all the way down! Your Right Shoulder should also go down that exact same line.

'Zilla,
I have a variation to the above that I am curious to see what you and others think of it. I came up with this a couple of years ago, but never really sought out any validation. Using surgical tubing, anchor one end under the left toe or on the plane line as you described. Tie the other end at the bottom of of the grip near the shaft or as close to PP#3 as comfortable. Concentrate on a right forearm pick-up and you will really feel the stretch. Now, for the interesting part...for drag loading, keep the tubing UNDER the right wrist or forearm (feel the loading of the secondary lever); for drive loading assume your grip keeping the tubing BETWEEN the forearms (notice how the entire primary lever assembly loads). Let me know what you think.
