Could you explain the misunderstandings?

Actually most in that list do actually use the right forearm to pickup the left arm so the secondary lever stays on A plane at startup at varing extents - Tiger and Phil btw are usually perfectly onplane at start-up hence using the plane line as their guide - conciously or subconciously. If you want to take it offplane with a shoulder turn takeaway, read leadbetters "the golf swing"....

Yes I realize the right forearm lifts at some point even in those strokes Matthew....
But those guys do not do a "Right Forearm Pickup" as it's commonly taught and referred to in TGM.
C'mon man....Tiger Woods? John Daly? Phil? etc. etc.
"From Address, lift your right forearm back, up, and in....take the club straight up the Turned Shoulder Plane. (with the right forearm)" (and straight down)
That's what I'm talking about.
...
Now I'm not saying that this kind of stroke (that all those pros use) "IS WHAT YOU MUST TEACH!"...
I'm just saying that it's obviously an option.
The only other justification is that all these guys (Hogan, Snead, Nelson, John Daly, Tiger, Phil, Ernie...+ more) would be much better than they already are. (if their backswings are that inferior)
...
And what I wrote above is how I understand how a "Right Forearm Takeaway" or "Right Forearm Pickup" is normally taught or thought of.
