hip bump, axis tilt, right shoulder down plane...makes it impossible to come over the top.

It's not important when the shoulders start moving, it's important how they start moving. If you fire that right shoulder down-plane with enough axis tilt (either hip bump, head back, or both) you will not come over the top as long as you have not gotten your arms a long way from your body at the top.

right shoulder down plane- means what? i always thought the shoulders should be level to the ground.

Looking down the line, from the top the right shoulder should move in a line towards the ball, along the Turned Shoulder Plane. It should not rotate on a horizontal plane.

Right shoulder moves down the turned shoulder plane in the downswing. Draw a line from the ball through the middle of the right shoulder when it is at the top of the backswing. I believe all great players drive the right shoulder down this plane.
