Swing plane: TGM vs Hank Haney
I read Hank Haney today.
His description of the swing plane is actually a swing spiral - where the shaft is always parallell to the shaft plane at address.
Looking at chapter 2 in TGM, I have a question regarding the inclined plane. Is it the shaft (secondary assembly) that should be pointing at the incline plane line or is it the primary assembly tha should be pointing there?
Went to golfdigest.com and studied several swings down the line. some had swings where the shafts were gradually steepening on the way up - and gradually flattening on the way down (as prescribed by TGM?). A few had the parallell to adress clubsharft plane as prescribed by Haney - and a few odd ones weree outside these extremes.
For the last years I think I've had a swing plane as described by mr Haney. Clubshaft always parallell to clubshaft plane at address. Which means that the club shaft is moving on a parallell plane that is gradually rising from the shaft through impact.
Today, however, I worked on keeping the pp#3 pressure through impact - and to do that - I had to move the right elbow more than I use to. Wiewing this in the mirror it seemed as the club then always pointed at the inclined plane line.
Comments anyone?
