OB, do you have both wrists level at Address?

I'd say ..........no. Im thinking that given the Downstroke Sequence of 6-M-1, "swinging from the feet", the Shoulders, the Right Shoulder specifically should pull the Hands Downplane in Startdown. A situation which leads one to deduce that its best for the Hands and the Right Shoulder to therefore be on the same Plane Angle in Startdown. So geometrically the TSP is "the ideal plane" for Startdown. Whereas in Follow Through or Finish the Right Shoulder is no longer pulling the Hands anywhere as the sequence has long since past that stage. Making the determination of ideal Plane Angle subject to different considerations for that part of the swing.

Plane shifting being dangerous, Im thinking that in Follow Through you should, in the ideal anyways, be on the same Plane you travelled through Impact on. In Finish you'd probably have to shift a higher plane angle if you rode through Impact on a low one. You just cant get to Top or Finish on some of the lower planes. Im sort of waxing theoretically and in the ideal here , I know there are plenty of exceptions on the PGA tour.

I dunno. I honestly dont think about plane angle too much personally, it just sort of "is what it is" for me. Normally Single Shift , Elbow then TSP but Im wondering what I exit on? OK, I just looked at video .....TSP exit. Ill have to check some old pre Yoda video to see what my Pivot to Hands swing looked like. Id guess way under plane going back then a lot of lifting then a vertical drop and ........ generally all over the place with a Zoro like sword action. Getting on plane can make such a difference.
If so, are you simply rolling your shoulder and keeping your arms extended. TSP just seems so steep coming down and I snap hook a lot with it. Do you have a wide stance with it? If this is a thread jack just ignore this and I'll keep searching the archives for TSP stuff.
