not sure i am absolutely right on this..

but what i have notice is.. Hogan have a pretty upright posture and a very "lowish" arm at the top of the swing, and a mid hand setup.

with that kind of combination he need to rotate his arm to get connected , be on plane and "one plane " position at the top. very similar to what this guy

teach.or sergio. very similar way. more "flattish " shoulder turn.. but in order to stay in sync or connected. he need to turn his arms back and through swing like hogan did... ie a flatter rotated shoulder turn. but rotate arm to stay on plane.

huge amount of lag using this way... due to the increased flexibility.. arm not flexed around the Rotor wrist joint.. at the top.



..

Say if we dont rotate our arms. and a flat shoulder turn. I think we will end up a little like David toms .. Arm have to move higher to stay on plane. ie flat shoulder turn..


and if we dont rotate the arms again , and stay "arm same line as shoulder on the top. while staying connected. we have to Pivot a little like sam snead , Jim hardy OPS or Stack and tilt swing..steeper rotated shoulder turn.

Many ways to skin the cat .. I say its choose your poison.

I think type of shoulder turn vs steepness shoulder turn vs arm rotation vs arm height.. need to be compatible . so that the motion create an on plane swing

Just my 2 cents observations.
