Yeah, tried that. Prob with that for me is I have to be very exact on the stance, otherwise it's a guess if push or pull. Hate it. I want to eliminate one side of the course. So looked for other options. Plus that wider stance makes me skull the ball with a driver at times.
That option is to be more down to elbow plane at Release. Still can't do it all the time, but getting there. BS is the tweak for me to achieve that.
just for reference this below makes zero sense....

The Dot on the Right Wrist will Face upwards at Impact. If you rotate the Right Wrist to the Left, so that it faces the Target just like the Left Wrist Dot, then your Wedges are Aligned at "0" degrees.
The Swing Plane is a Angled Plane. The Angled Plane is at Right Angles (90 degrees) to the Vertical Plane. The Primary Lever is Aligned to the Vertical Plane (Left Arm, Wrist, Clubface) at Impact. The Right Forearm is aligned to the Swing Plane at Impact and Separation (best if always aligned to the Swing Plane).
That isn't what they tought me... and I guarantee its not what they tought him and its not in the book except as malfunction. Either way u shoild take it down its a real eyesore and does not represent the golfing machine very well people see a big picture like that and get carried away thinking that's what homer told us to do
The real problem with that photo is that it will cause a student to over accelerate the hands instead of getting the passive hands ahead of the club head at impact by using the pivot only.

I see you're an advocate of pure swinging, pure pivot...and from other forums you're a Hoganite......so my question is, why and how do you think Hogan used his so-called 3 R hands? I went the direction of believing he said the truth about his feels, so I researched the way where I can use the pivot as he said (hips starting) and not stall the pivot when come time for PA1/3 R hands...and I think it's achieving the reverse-k position on top that's key to this. No way we can stall the pivot even with PA1 use for as long as we keep the head super still from the top to impact. No way. At least if your clubhead isn't under plane and on its way to gouge the ground.
A lot has been talking about the first move is the hip slide. If the hip goes too fast with the arm of clubhead not able to catch up, it will cause mishit most likely to the right.
With the driver, I feel the right forearm start down together with the hip automatically slide forward. It is the feel but actually is the right shoulder comes down first then forearm straighten slightly, then rotation ... So which has the control on the downstroke? Forearm, #3? It shouldn't be the hip eventhough it is the first move?

Hogan had an active left shoulder - he whirls through impact with the right elbow bent and parked on his right hip at release. The pivot uncocks the LW, not right arm extension nor a throwing motion with the right forearm. The right shoulder straightens the right arm in the follow through, which felt like a throwing motion to him. As you can clearly see here:

So what did Homer say about that (wedge alignments especially the R flying wedge)?
