You may find it difficult to interpret 2-D DTL images in terms of swingplane, but I don't. I realize that a perfectly accurate assessment cannot be established from a 2-D DTL image that is off-axis, but it can be close enough to justify general conclusions eg. establishing that SG and TW's clubshaft comes down on a shallower plane than the TSP in the mid-late downswing, and that SG drops his hands/clubshaft down to the elbow plane early in his downswing action. Look at SG's third image - when his hands are at belt level, when his clubshaft cuts across his lower biceps and when his clubshaft cuts across his mid-lumbar spine. Adopt that position when facing a side-mirror - it is incontrovertible that your clubshaft will be just above the hand plane, and close to the elbow plane, at that time point.

Why look at pics? I have a swing plane. I can locate the elbow, TSP, hand and turning shoulder planes. I can double shift, triple shift and quadruple shift planes.

Could you please describe, or visually demonstrate, your golf swing when you use a quadruple plane shift?

Thanks. Homer described a triple shift in 10-7-D but he didn't include your quadruple shift variation in his book. I would be very interested in seeing a visual demonstration of your quadruple plane shift swing.

You can shift all over the place you might end up looking like Charles Barkley
