I have a problem to define whether the Right Forearm is set on a Turned Shoulder Plane or not. Any drill or tips on it?
At Address, settle for putting the Forearm on an Elbow Plane. To actually position it on the steeper Turned Shoulder Plane is awkward and would usually be ungolflike.

If you cannot take the shoulder down the clubshaft plane, you must take along some other path and add compensations - now, instead of one motion to remember, you wind up with at least two!
Just want to make sure I am understanding this. At address, with the right forearm on the same plane as the club shaft, the plane angle would be different for the different clubs, more upright with sand wedge, flatter with longer irons, or driver, but by "they are identicle" you mean that they are both the elbow plane?

Thanks
Brian,
The definition of Elbow Plane (10-6-A) is where the Right Elbow "Touches the Waist". If your right elbow is not touching your Waist at your address position, then it (right elbow) is not starting on the Elbow Plane.
I would add that this alignment needs to be accomplished without grounding or soling the clubhead. If you do ground the clubhead at address, you to do it after the alignment is established and it will look different as does the location of the clubhead when grounded vs not grounded.
What about with mid body hands at Address, should you still be trying to line up the forearm?
With a Classical Address, Left Wrist Bent and the Right Wrist Flat, the On Plane Right Forearm and Clubshaft can point at nearly the same point on the Plane Line during Start Up (7-9); works for me. Of course, we know that somethings are going to change before we get to Impact.
