Ok, kind people of LBG. Thanks again. Feeling wiser and happier.
I think I had more or less grasp the basic concept .(i hope)
Mathew: Took me a while, but after thinking for a day or two. I finally understood what u meant ! thanks. No wonder i have had unwanted slice in my long woods , did not gasp the longitudinal acceleration. Instead im doing the centrifugal throwaway. Very important piece of explanation.
err one more question.. with all these thing encouraging a draw pattern. How do i actually hit a fade? -_-a

No problem
Longitudinal acceleration - I perhaps didn't explain it clearly - Im not as gifted as Yoda when it comes to communication....lol If you put your left hand on top of a table (a plane) palm down and move it back and forth keeping the palm down - you are accelerating longitudinally - lenghtwise on the plane.... In the golf stroke it is just the same but on an incline....
At the top of the backstroke the left wrist should be in a position to do a karate chop on the plane line - and then uncock and roll on that line - allow the clubhead overtake the left wrist by means of a rolling left wrist not a bending left wrist...

..but when in the downswing does this karate chop occur?
"The cure is to learn a proper Downstroke. First, make sure your Start Down is On Plane. Do many Start Down Waggles to assure that you are pulling the butt-end of the Club directly toward the Plane Line. Then, take this motion into the Release area, making sure you Uncock and Roll while still driving toward -- not down -- the Plane Line. Finally, complete your Total Motion by Swiveling out of the Follow-Through (Both Arms Straight position) and into the Finish. Make sure the butt-end of the Club points toward the Plane Line as you Finish Swivel."
Can someone explain to me the difference between down and driving toward?

The incline plane is three dimensional- Down- Out and Through. To stay On Plane all three will feel like One.
If you break them into stations- Down goes the right shoulder and arms, Out goes the clubhead with the turning body and clubhead travels Through the ball On Plane. Of the three- DOWN will always be felt. You can't cheat Down.

I quoted from text that Lynn posted, not sure if its from the book. I understand the inclined plane and all that but in the passage there is a distinction made between "down" and "toward".
I took it to mean 'driving toward the plane line' but not 'down the plane line' hence I can't discern the difference.

I would like an answer to this too . . . DOWN implies VERTICAL motion VERTICAL in relation to the ground . . . Where as DOWN PLANE implies an ANGLED LINE. So which term is the most appropriate for people to get DOWN or DOWN PLANE?
So if you were looking at rectangle (Plane) is DOWN a straight line VERTICAL TO THE GROUND or is it an ANGLED LINE?
