I like that a lot Blake. Yoda made me understand how important re-planing and the finish swivel is and it has been very helpful to my students. I have still been having a little trouble myself, but I found a great book on fitness and stretching that shows some stretching exercises I can do to help fix my problem with a stiff pair of shoulders.

Thai massage works pretty good too, them girls are stong.
Thought Yoda might like this one, for the way I am getting that shaft right back up the plane after impact. Great finish swivel action! KC pointed that out to me..
looks like rubber shafts and/or some significant throwaway

What KC didn't point out is that you acquired your Finish Swivel Alignments at Impact.
You're starting to show great improvement. It's interesting to follow.
Your Right Shoulder is traveling Down Plane. That looks great. But it's not Traveling Down Plane far enough. I think that's because the Right Hip is interfering; getting in the way. Clear it out of the way. But How?
You're running out of right arm at Impact because your Right Hip is interfering with your Right Shoulder. This is causing your Right Wrist to Flatten and it's interfering with your Hinge Action. I can see this from both views and there's no doubt that it's slowing your Hands through the Impact Zone. You aren't getting out of your swing the effort you're putting into it.
You don't yet have the Flat Left Wrist/Bent Right Wrist etched into your Cerebral Cortex. Burn it in. Allow me to explain.
We know that the Flat Left Wrist/Bent Right Wrist are key to the Flying Wedges and Hinging and 3 dimensional Impact. We also know that Horizontal Hinging has longer travel than Angled Hinging. The Flat Left Wrist/Bent Right Wrist must stay intact for the full length of that travel while it's rotating around the Hinge Pin. So, for about 3 inches or whatever, after Impact, your right wrist needs to remain as bent as it was at Impact. See Impact Fix.
Educated Hands
Use the knowledge in your Hands. Keeping the Flat Left Wrist/Bent Right Wrist intact will SHOW you how far the Right Shoulder needs to Travel Down Plane. It also will show you how much Right Elbow bend is needed at impact. Your Hands can educate your pivot to comply with the Wedges and Hinging. Don't allow the Pivot to interfere with the Flat Left Wrist/Bent Right Wrist condition.
The best solution will come from your Educated Hands. The Hands (NOW) know what to do and your Pivot knows what to do. Allow your Hands to adjust the Pivot to comply. Alignment Golf.
Alignment Golf is far better than what our respected colleagues on the west coast (AKA, Left coast Witch-doctors) teach such as using speed to create alignments. If they change speed, their alignments go as wacky as they are. Alignments and 2-M-2; "TGM, it's the New Old Fashion Way".

I agree with what you are saying and I will take serious note of what you are saying. My brain is mush when I get more than two things to work on, so I will start pushing this into my cortex slowly. My main objective right now is to get the left knee rotating outside my left foot while maintaining head position and straiting the left leg. I believe after yesterday day since this was my first time to work on this it was not bad, but I need more lateral motion before transition and it will keep the right shoulder from passing the lowpoint and give me more axis tilt (Extension).
I like your post much better here, explaining how and why is always important... Thank You..

I love that hat. It keeps your head real steady. I gotta get one.
I have lead tape on the inside of my hat "4 Strips" in the front and "2 strips" in the back so, to keep my head down about 0.5 seconds longer @ the right angle...
