Not a lot of people talk about set up because it is one of the things that is so varied to each persons natural swing, at least as told my many. I think that you all hear a lot of Tour pro's talk about setup/alignment and thats about as for as it goes. I think that any player that gets the correct setup/alignment will play his best ever but you have to throw weight distribution into the mix because to much left or to much right changes the plane.
Below I have added a very 4 year old photo I drew and yes it looks like my kid who is 4 years old drew it! What it show is a never changing club head line as to its arc, but you will see as the feet change the shoulders and hand arc changes. This to me is why it is important as to the way the hands travel keeping the club plane arc in tact. My self personaly I roll the club open because I don't want to leave my self a chance of hitting it way left and I don't believe hooding the club is a good thing as some think but call it (matching the spin angle). Notice the line through the midde showing ball position the club lean never changes and the ball position is consistant as the angles of the feet and shoulders change. Well just look at the photo and see it from all possible angles as the club lies open, and think of Hogan. Most people think Hogan had his hands behind the ball at address and in fact the angle of the photos or video or playing tricks on your mind! Just something to chew on...
VERY NICE!!!
Hogan on arc of approach . . . shifting ball around on the arc to hit different shapes and trajectories but keeping the arc. . . . also SHOULDERS CONTROL PLANE OF THE ARMS . . . great illustration.
