Get you a couple of tennis rackets or ping pong paddles. Hold them both out in front of you with your left arm extended straight out from the shoulder. Your left arm should be parallel to the ground and the racket vertical. Take your BENT right arm and LEVEL BENT right wrist in front of your chest like the left arm. Make sure your Right Forearm and the shaft of the racket are in the same plane.

Hold your left arm and racket in place. Take the right arm back with the racket moving parallel to the ground i.e. the Horizontal Plane. BUT ROLL your right forearm so the back of the racket is facing the ground i.e. facing the Horizontal Plane. Feels weird because you're on a Horizontal Plane. Do this several times. Then bend over and do it on an Inclined Plane. Felt "un-golf-like" on the horizontal plane. But on the Inclined Plane it's where you should be at the Top.
