It was in response to a question regarding how to determine the exact amount of Waist Bend necessary to produce an On Plane Stroke in both directions. However, this Shoulder Turn requires Zero Axis Tilt and hence Zero Weight Shift. That's fine for the Backstroke, but it means a Low Power Downstroke. Therefore, it should be restricted to Short Shots. The ideal Shoulder Turn is the Standard Variation of 10-13-A. This involves a Backstroke Turn 'as Flat as possible' back to the Plane, followed by a Downstroke Turn down the Plane. The drill of 'shooting the rifle at the Plane Line' on the Downstroke works for all On Plane Strokes involving Shoulder Turn. It should not be used to determine the Waist Bend except as described for the Rotated Shoulder Turn. And with the right forearm take away? The forearm would trace any plane it chooses? Waist bend would be determined by? So many questions, only one yoda to answer. The Right Forearm is positioned ideally on the Turned Shoulder Plane at Impact Fix (2-F). It remains on that Plane, even in Adjusted Address. In Start-Up the Right Forearm takes the Club immediately Up, Back and In on the Turned Shoulder Plane. In so doing, it Traces the Straight Line Base Line of that Plane (2-N-0). The Knee and Waist Bend are established by the Player at Impact Fix and are determined by the distance the Hips must move to allow the Right Forearm to point at the Turned Shoulder Plane Line (7-16). __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
