Another bit of interesting quote I found on Snead:
Woods couldn't clear a narrow stream in front of a par 3, then played out of the shallow water and made bogey. Snead beat him with a par, and was duly impressed, talking about Woods and his favorite subject -- the swing -- years later.
"You watch his backswing, and it comes right down on that same line,'' Snead said. "A lot of fellows come over the ball or dip around. Hogan said, 'I got something I'll take to the grave,' but I knew what it was. It was the right arm that would point toward the flag. You're not going to get off track very far. And that's the same with Tiger.''

Well, seeing Snead trace the delivery line was huge for me.
Also, later, when demonstrating pitches, Snead explains:
"I try to make my swing up here and down the same path."
"That's the whole thing. Keeping your swing up and down that same path."

It doesn't get more important than the Inclined Plane, Tarkus, and you've mentioned two huge keys to stay on it.
Welcome aboard and congratulations on your first post. Keep'em comin!

my novice atttempt
To me I notice how he sets his right arm in line with the shaft at address. which I guess it the begining of assembling the right forearm wedge.
I think he was displaying a hitting procedure when he was talking about Craig Wood(SP?) and a closed clubface, looks like he is vertical hinging at the end of that stroke.
Also I think he is displaying different hinging actions from his regular swing, his short pitches, low pitches and when he talks about hitting it high. If I am correct and if I was still not a novice I would venture to match up which hinges went with each shot.
Could watch him swing all day.
