And the cure is to return to the original primary concern - the Hands and their Clubhead Lag, Wrist Positions and "On Plane." The On Plane relationship of the Hands, Shoulder Turn, and Hip Turn causes them to feel and look (to the player) as though they were all travelling parallel with the Plane Line from Top to Finish. Having a geometrical basis, this "Parallel Pivot" is acceptable therapy for the tendency of any or all fothe three motions to lift the clubhead "Above" Plane and set up Pull Shot alignments. (see 7-13.) On Line Hand Motion can compensate for Off Line Hip and Shoulder Motion but only up to a point. Off Plane Clubhead Throwaway is even a very prevalent Putting and Chipping Fault. It amounts to an unintentional Plane Line shift and causes direction control to become vague and erratic. So- learn to hit the ball with Hand manipulation rather than Clubhead manipulation and your game is much less likely to keep falling apart.
Nice!

That's awesome Bucket. I appreciate the quote. I've been taught the relationships, but had not the text. It's nice to see the evolution of THE MAN'S thoughts, from one edition to the next. Thanks for digging it up.
