Hogan Right Shoulder Motion Elbow Plane Hitter
I see Launching Pad here . . . . I gotta go on a patented 2 hour lunch break . . . but I'll have more to say about this . . . I see the right shoulder motion supporting the motion of the primary lever and being a backstop for #1? Tip of Right Shoulder to pocket above left elbow joint . . . this is something that Eddie Cox has told me about numerous times . . . just now starting to see it . . . . good stuff . . . Even though the right shoulder is working down and out . . . it is still working ON TOP of the left arm Primary Lever . . . NOT UNDER NEATH IT . . . still tilting the tea cup but not shifting the plane . . . ultimate efficiency.

Makes you wonder about the Pyramids, Notre Dame, and Lighthouse of Alexandria, too!

Of course, we invented the Bullseye putter so that's something, I guess!

I was thinking that if I had a Trackman, I bet I could qualify for the Professional National Championship.

Ah Luke , you did qualify for that tourney.

Im thinking it was the Mexican lunches.....or alignments maybe, not sure which. All Alignments being derived from impact geometry ......

I am not even sure that Ben Hogan could articulate the importance of the "D-plane".

What could he have possibly known about golf?

That seemed to have slipped my mind...

But, I agree with all of your assessments.

Interesting stuff!

The right shoulder motion drives the hands down underneath the shoulders own path. Notice how steep his hand path is initially. Also notice that his right shoulder is almost straight above his hands. So if all he does with his right arm is push (as in extencior action or threecep drive loading), he is pushing the hands on an very steep plane. This plane could be drawn as a line straight from his right shoulder and through his pp#1.

There are opposing forces at work here. The force from his left shoulder will be pulling on a more shallow path than the right shoulder is pushing. And it all adds up to a hand path that is nevertheless much steeper than the inclined plane that the secondary assembly lever impacts the ball on. And as the right arm straightens, the push force from the right shoulder will gradually change it's inclination towards flatter.

The secondary assembly lever gets trapped underneath his shoulder turn and he can turn his shoulder hard on a plane that hovers above the ball, yet strike the ball with the sweet spot.

I don't understand the Yellow Book or Mr. Hogan's swing as well as you guys, but I think our man BUCKET is really onto something here!

I think I heard Yoda on one of his videos that the idea of dropping the right shoulder way down to induce the hip action is a "perverted attempt" at proper zone one action.

I wonder if this is what he was referring to.
