Tour Player Examples at Address
Are there any good examples of tour players with widely photographed swings who have an on-plane right forearm?
I am having a lot of trouble with this concept, and it seems to me that most tour players don't do this. Thanks

Yep. Right on this here website! Hoof it on over to the Hitter's forum and look under the Stuart Appleby (sp?) thread. You'll see the Right Forearm On-Plane at Address AND you'll see EXACTLY how the Right Forearm Flying Wedge assembly is to be used with the clubshaft and right forearm in the SAME plane.
Hustle over there.

On my way
does it matter that he's a hitter?
edit: looks like the hosting is not working...
i went here, and it doesn't look on line to me. i really don't get it

if you go to the video and click forward 7 times, it looks in line, but his club is well into the backswing.

More guys do not have it on Plane for sure...
Why? Dunno. It's not taught...
Not sure if there's any other reasons.
Sergio does it now I think....never used to.
...
I wanna know what you guys think...
Cause I've been hitting it better lately w/o it on Plane.
Is it better for certain patterns?

If it's gone git there at impact . . . why not start there?
2-J-1 IMPACT ALIGNMENTS The geometry of all alignments stems form the Impact geometry requirements. So, the first step in preparation for a Golf Shot is the establishment of the Impact Conditions
Looks like Els does it to me too.

roll-gybe,
You need to understand that whatever move or procedure a Tour Players utilises does not make it correct anymore than not using it makes it wrong.
The issue here is that they have the requisite talent to make the compensations most of the time while we do not.
We " normal" humans need every edge that we can get and that is obtained via eliminating the compensations that are in our swings.

I was under the impression that when using Standard Address the rear shoulder should not be On Plane. Is that not the case?

Miguel Angel Jimenez has an on plane right forearm.He's renowned for his lack of work ethic and often arrives for a round without warm up and shoots 62.Perhaps his secret is the on-plane RF,one less compensation that needs constant grooving.
A lot of pros actually have their right forearm close to on-plane.It may not be dead on-plane like Jimenez or Moe Norman but close enough.Mickelson,Appleby,Azinger,Olazabal,Trevino, Hogan,Player,Palmer are all very close to on-plane.
