I have been waiting a long time to see this, great stroke Ted!! I love how once you set your wedges at impact fix, they never seem to move throughout the stroke. It looks like you just carry them to the top and back down through impact. Question though, in comparing my swing in relation to yours, it appears that your right elbow (arm) is somewhat lower than mine at the top. My right arm is even with, or maybe slightly higher than my left arm at the top of my swing, while yours seems to be in almost a tucked position. More of what I imagine a swingers position to be. Just wanted you or anyones thoughts on this?? My first inclination is that I am trying to hold off the rotation of the club laying on the plane, while in your swing there is much more of a natural paddlewheel motion to the top.
Thanks again for the great video!

I'm just guessing since I don't have pics of you. But from what you're saying, it sounds like you have no fanning in the right arm. Check the start-up to see if the right forearm is moving about the elbow, using it as a center. (Elbows staying by the sides while clapping like seal.) The "tucked" position might be misleading as I'm trying to stretch my right arm to maximum extensor action. The checkrein action (the leash) of the left arm won't allow my right arm to straighten, although I'm trying as hard as I can. Also, the swinger and hitter at top can be geometrically identical.
