As to the right forearm on plane with the shaft, I think it depends on how you are looking at it. If you look from behind the ball the shaft and forearm are supposed to appear to be in line, or laying on the same plane. If you were looking from opposite the ball or even the view as you look down at the shaft and your fore arm the would not appear to be in line, they would be at angles to each other.
For me to get what I think is right, I set up the right arm flying wedge with the club in my right hand, raised and extended out from my body, as if it was laying on the table. Then I lower the club head down to the ground while bending my right elbow and keeping it, (my elbow) pretty close to the front of my right hip, but still keeping the bent right wrist and the flying wedge.
Sorry about the length and I hope it makes sense. I quess I am looking for some validation.

Steve,

You basically have got it for the right forearm flying wedge. There is much, much more to say about the wedges. 6-B-3-0-1 if you have the book.

We hear you guys on the photos...As they say, a thousand words.

Wait'in, Wait'in on a Sunny Day...
