I've asked this before, but with the loss of previous posts, I never saw all the responses to the thread.
At setup, should I try to have the right forearm and the same plane as the clubshaft? If so, should I try to do that with all clubs? Obviously this would be a different plane with different clubs, but is the intent the same?

Check out Brian Gay's Right Forearm alignment in this preview video with the Sand Wedge and with the Driver. They are identical.
I have a problem to define whether the Right Forearm is set on a Turned Shoulder Plane or not. Any drill or tips on it?

Yoda and others, thanks. very helpful. Also the point of Brian playing the ball off the toe....the explanation was perfect, thanks.
BTW, Yoda, I played in a tournament a few months ago with Collin Neeman, the kid in some of your videos. He killed the ball.
Thank you for your comments, exgolfpro. We appreciate them! The full video is ten times longer than the clip and is chock full of such goodies. We are excited about our plans to offer it (and two others) in our soon-to-be announced 'Friends' program.
And you're right about Collin: He can flat put it out there. Plus, a nicer guy you will never meet.

At Address, settle for putting the Forearm on an Elbow Plane. To actually position it on the steeper Turned Shoulder Plane is awkward and would usually be ungolflike.

Just want to make sure I am understanding this. At address, with the right forearm on the same plane as the club shaft, the plane angle would be different for the different clubs, more upright with sand wedge, flatter with longer irons, or driver, but by "they are identicle" you mean that they are both the elbow plane?

Brian,
The definition of Elbow Plane (10-6-A) is where the Right Elbow "Touches the Waist". If your right elbow is not touching your Waist at your address position, then it (right elbow) is not starting on the Elbow Plane.
