Has anyone seen the cover of Golf Magazine? It has a great shot of Charles Howell just after impact. Any T.G.M. comments?
Looking at the picture on page 65, it looks like his Right Elbow is above Plane at Impact. I also checked his swing sequence at the Golf Digest site, and it looks like the same thing...
I can't tell from just the pictures on the Golf Digest site - "up the line" view is a complete waste of time. Why don't they just shoot face-on and down the line views so we can see what's going on in the swing?

He was a member at Augusta CC, (differentiate Augusta National). Leadbetter has been his coach since he was 10. (see personal) http://pgatour.com/players/bio/285321
Now when I see a swing this good, I just want to move the right hand grip to get the forearm in line and then see how they would do when they hold onto the lag.
Smith did the same de-lagging with Phil
a few years back. Smith said his clubhead
was still very close to his ear when the
hands were below his hips. That's LAG, lol.
Too much of anything could be a bad thing,
but I think Phil has put some back in.
What the term Lag is to the outside world
of instruction is different to the term Lag to
the Golfing Machine world. It means more
to us then just alignment lag.
True, the annoucers are only talking about ONE TYPE of lag, and its CLUBHEAD LAG.
There are other components of it but thats the only one they talk about.

Also pertaining to my other post above, when the hands are around hip high and the shaft is still lagging behind the hands and arms, if the shaft is lining up with the right forearm is that the "elbow plane?"
Also what are the advantages of being on that plane versus one where the right forearm is a little lower than the shaft at this point?

My understanding is it doesn't matter, as long as your right forearm is properly supporting whatever plane you choose to use.
The announcers almost always are talking about Accumulator Lag - e.g. retention of left wrist cock. Very rarely do they discuss stressing the shaft and the like (clubhead lag).

I think you are correct about that. They may not even know about clubhead lag. Except for.... Bobby Clampett, and maybe Johnny Miller
