. . . it promotes the club to go left after impact . . .
Thanks, Burley.
I first used surgical tubing to demonstrate both Extensor Action and the Delivery Path of Thrust at my 'comeback' school at the PGA TOUR Academy in May 2004. I am delighted to see that you and others are now thinking along these lines.
Now for one picky (but very important) point, which I make only because of the extreme emphasis much modern instruction places on 'going left'. I daily proclaim that the very essence of the Golf Stroke is rotation and its resultant circular motion of the Clubhead. However . . .
The Inclined Plane of Motion (and its Baseline) must also be respected. The orbiting Clubhead 'goes left' only after Low Point (and not before). Since a normal 'Up Plane' Ball Location demands that Impact precede Low Point, then the Clubhead (in its circular orbit) must continue to move right AFTER Impact (before it moves left AFTER Low Point). Otherwise, there can only be an 'under' Plane Stroke.
In my experience, most handicap golfers have no problem with 'going left' after Impact. In fact, they are so good at 'going left' that they do it from the Top and through the Start Down, Downstroke and Release.
And that is the very reason they remain high handicappers.

Lynn, Thanks if it were not for great minds like your self younger teachers like myself would be guessing. I know where to give thanks, and that would be people like yourself.
I totaly agree with your thoughts about the club going left after low point, and might should have explain it better so not to confuse others, but Excitement sometimes hinders my writting or thinking..LoL
...The right arm return to the exact same spot at impact as to address?

Well, its just a training aid..I can't handle the pressure..LoL
No, the resistance of the tube plays like an arm track or tracer and promotes bring the arm back on the same path. I am still playing around with it and will try and shot some video so everyone can prove me wrong and make fun of my swing....LoL I just thought it was a good idea and have been playing around with it since I made it, I could be totaly wrong? Seems to give me that feel though.
haha...that is what I want to see it in action. Please shoot a video and youtube it. I think no one will make fun of your swing, every passionated teacher should be respected.

Substitute Fix for Address, and I think we've resolved the two viewpoints.
