Practicing from Impact fix - and just leaving everthing right there - would be a good start.

Wow, now that is surprising.

yep - that is the problem, he thinks impact and address are the same, and that the right forearm should be 'high' at address.

The problem in that view is that it only works with a true swinger, and there is zero margin for error. It also assumes low point of the clubhead is at ground level, just under the ball, rather than below ground ahead of the ball. Not to mention the lack of right arm power loss.

Most shots I saw were right forearm high at impact...besides, seems like head bob was even more.

Besides not having his right forarm on plane. Looked like he was releasing his #2 Accumulator from the outside which means he wasn't using 10-20-E (Wrist throw) correctly; to go down and out on the plane. Off course he couldn't use it correctly because there wasn't any magic in his right forearm.

On a positive note, Tiger is not on a Haney parallel to the shaft plane, plane at top. The butt end of his club is pointing at the target line as per 1-L-18 , a good thing.
Hank might not like this though.

To me it looks like his bowed left wrist is disrupting his flying wedges, not that he knows of them or even considers them maybe. Too bad. They are just alignments, precision alignments, after all.

Can you imagine what that guy could do with if he had TGM's precision alignments and consistency. Yikes.

Looks like Tiger is getting back on track based on what I saw at the Open.

His takeaway is much, much better. His hands and chest are moving together again, similar to 2000. A 'connected' move.

A slight left hand grip adjustment, and a level right wrist at address and he is back in place to have another huge year like 2000.

Perhaps 2010 is the year for the 'slam', and with the U.S. Open at Pebble again

the line drawing was in no way precise, interesting that Tiger doesn't require the magic of the whatever nor did any great player
for every example you show of an onplane RF , there is examples of the same player being offplane
Now did the player hit a better shot is all that matters

The forearm is closer to being on plane here:
