While the student is not exactly tracing a straight plane line, his clubhead is coming from the inside with an open clubface (vertical hinge). To do otherwise would mean that his shot would strike the white board.

I like it! You rock!
What's up with the dude's elbow position though???
Keep it up, Justin. I don't know about anybody else but, for me, seeing TGM principles on video clarifies things much better than reading about them. I think the ultimate tool for us visual learners would be a step-by-step DVD series, demonstrating each and every concept, drill, and position in the yellow book. In concert with the book, it could be the ultimate fog-clearing tool. For learning TGM principles, nothing is better than seeing a competent AI, but such a DVD series would be the next best thing, IMO.

Thanks for the encouragement Bigwill.
I have always enjoyed sharing the book, the only thing that stops me from shooting more videos is the lack of a wireless mic on my video camera - working on that buddy!
This confuses me a little bit (like that is very hard to do).
It is hard to see the right foot; is this stance square with the mat ?
I assume that white board is specifically placed there for a reason (because of the cut shot). I thought that the inside out cut shot was supposed to have a square stance line and an open plane line, which is exactly what I see in the video. Here is my confusion: I incorrectly thought that while hitting this cut shot (just like in the video) that the ball would travel straight down the stance line. That whould clearly cause a nasty 'crack' as the ball comes right back to say 'hello' after smacking into that white board.
But as I type this and watch the video several times everything that I have read tells me that is very wrong. The ball always travels along the plane line. I was aware that was the purpose of this cut shot, but totally missed the boat regarding the most important aspect of the drill: ball to plane line relationship.
Thank you Comdpa. It makes a huge difference seeing this for the first time after reading about it previously. It just shows me how minute differences can mean everything.
