Good observation, MJ.

Note the "comparatively Squared-Away" yet still slightly Open alignment of the Shoulders in the Standard and Special Impact Fix Variations (10-8-A/B photos). In Pivot Strokes, the Body Rotation ideally Loads the Lag at Start Down and then continues to lead the Arms and Hands throughout the Downstroke.

However, this desired Body Rotation must not be allowed to pull the Club Off Plane (Bent Plane Line). Hence, our Hand-Controlled-Pivot System and the necessity of Plane Line Tracing through Impact.

In an ideal world, I would agree. But here's the problem - how many can people can "passively aim" the hands? Not many I think. For most all, in order to teach them to move the hands SOLELY with the pivot, you must get their minds OUT of their hands and onto the pivot itself. Tell them to aim PP #3 at an aiming point and they will thrust it there with their hands. So... the choices are clear - make them Hitters or be prepared for "incubation periods" of years, during which they are switters.

I will now hunker down like a jackrabbit in a hailstorm!
