Right forearm and shaft in line at setup?
I've asked this before, but with the loss of previous posts, I never saw all the responses to the thread.
At setup, should I try to have the right forearm and the same plane as the clubshaft? If so, should I try to do that with all clubs? Obviously this would be a different plane with different clubs, but is the intent the same?

Its not 100% neccessary but recomended.. as long as you can return to right forearm and shaft in line at impact. and straigtening afterwards.
Thats why the Lie angle of golf club have to be customised to your plane eventually.
2 reasons. alignment purpose and so you wont run out of right arm = lost of compression and lag.

Check out Brian Gay's Right Forearm alignment in this preview video with the Sand Wedge and with the Driver. They are identical.

Yoda and others, thanks. very helpful. Also the point of Brian playing the ball off the toe....the explanation was perfect, thanks.
BTW, Yoda, I played in a tournament a few months ago with Collin Neeman, the kid in some of your videos. He killed the ball.

Right Forearm on a Turned Shoulder Plane
Dear Yoda,
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?

Right Forearm Plane At Address

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.

Thanks! Yoda. But my fog is coming above my head.

Is that a single shift in the old thread?

Thank you for your comments, exgolfpro. We appreciate them! The full video is ten times longer than the clip and is chock full of such goodies. We are excited about our plans to offer it (and two others) in our soon-to-be announced 'Friends' program.
And you're right about Collin: He can flat put it out there. Plus, a nicer guy you will never meet.
