I am personally enjoying the civility of this discussion and the restraint shown by all. It is the respectful give-and-take one would expect in a fine club, even when opinions are strongly held.
This is just one more thing that differentiates the LBG Forums from many others. We are like-minded individuals gathered for a common purpose: To learn from and share with others in an atmosphere of comraderie and mutual respect.

I am fine with what Mr.Tomascello taught you...No problemo...And I didn't happen to bump in to Jim Percherke ...I called him to order a pair of #75478 9D Classic Dress Shoes from Footjoy and to thank him for his contribution of 4 more studio chairs for my studio....Our post reminded me of him!!! So thank you for jarring my memory...
Good place to for someone to explain why tracing a straight plane line in the backswing is Imperative?
Interesting point, nevermind, and one that deserves an important differentiation.
Tracing a Straight Plane Line on the Backstroke simplifies the mission of getting to the Top correctly. However, because the Top itself can be (and is) a re-alignment place, the route chosen from Address can and does vary widely.
On the other hand, Impact is not a re-alignment place. You are either on the money there or you are not. And Tracing a Straight Plane Line on the Downstroke is mandatory to correctly Deliver the Clubhead into the Ball.
Therefore, it is this last Tracing -- not the first -- that is The Third Imperative.
I haven't read my book for a while, guess I forgot the part where it specifies that tracing the straight plane line during the Backstroke is not a part of the Third Imperative.

The book itself does not differentiate Backstroke versus Downstroke Plane Line Tracing as the Third Imperative. However, it can be inferred from the text, particularly paragraphs 2-N-0 (Clubhead Line of Flight) and 12-3-0 (the Mechanical Checklist, specifically the Impact Sections 9/10/11 and On Line Uncocking, On Line Release Swivel and On Line Hinge Action).
