Am I on track? This is my first post as I have been taking it all in. This is a grreat website and forum! Congratulations!
Of the two shoulders the right shoulder is the only one on plane. The right shoulder will be on plane-the downswing plane- when it moves Down, Out and Through into impact.
The right shoulder acts in two different ways depending on the stroke- always on plane. A Swinger will use the right shoulder as a gyroscope, a spinning wheel, to drive the clubhead into impact with centrifugal force. A Hitter uses the right shoulder as a platform to push off- to drive the right arm and hands into impact. Both on plane - down, out and through.
One important point: The right arm does NOT extend fully until AFTER impact.
