I would be very interested in a discussion of how to perform different shots around the green.

I am very early on the learning curve of TGM. Basically, at this point, I understand that I use a turned shoulder plane in my full stroke. I am not sure what I use on Basic Motion shots (zero pivot). I have been successful controlling trajectory using hinge action, using pitch, punch or push basic. But when I try to get creative and use different minor stroke types, my motion gets wobbly.

The planes are an area where I have a lot of fog. I would like to see your explanation of the hands only plane and how/when to use it.

I think it would also be helpful if you could include a discussion of each different plane and how/when you would want to use each one. In other words, all other things remaining the same, what does the plane affect and are there situations when you want to use a different plane to obtain a specific result?

BTW, I read your article on planes on your website:
http://www.troliogolf.com/trolioPLANEANGLES.html
but it does not discuss what effect changing the plane has on ball behavior. Any clarification you can provide would be helpful. Thanks.
