[O.B.Left]

It is my understanding that the clubshaft should always remain on-plane when it is swinging through the impact zone (which I will loosely describe as being between the third parallel and fourth parallel) and I am under the impression that this rule applies equally to swingers versus hitters.

The orbit that the clubhead will transcribe during its passage through the impact zone will be circular, and the size of the circular orbit must be related to the angle of the inclined plane - being smaller for a shallower inclined plane (eg. elbow plane), and larger for a steeper inclined plane (turned shoulder plane). The hands will also move inside more quickly if the circular orbit is smaller - eg. Hogan's swing where his clubshaft is slightly below the elbow plane (closer to the hand plane) during its passage through the impact zone - and that it is not dependent on whether a golfer is a swinger or a hitter.

Do you agree, or disagree?

Its just that sometimes I think it is debate not golf that is your real sport.

When in your first post above you asked "Do you agree, or disagree?" Im thinking you would have gladly debated either side of a persons answer.

This is all very educational for you and some of the readers, my self included, but only to a point. Like I said I like these threads.

But we are still dealing with your first sentence above!

As for censorship, I only appeal for brevity in light of the fact these debates have no proper structure or moderator. Even Kennedy Nixon went off the air at one point. Was that censorship too?

Debates do end, normally. Although Im sure some parties could go on and on if given the chance.

Lets do 1-L-16 next. Thats a good one. Seriously, no joke. Id like it. Was Jack wrong in regard to how to hit a fade? Face angle or club head path as the determining factor in initial ball flight.
