Agreed. A TSP Angle (of which there are many not one) is a Startdown Plane Angle. The Elbow Plane (the same angle as the Shaft Plane assuming the Right Elbow is on it) is a "through the ball" Plane Angle. Its nearly impossible to get the TSP on the Elbow Plane. Shifts in Plane Angle do happen. Shifts are hazardous but Tracing is what its all about. See 1-L-18.

All of this TSP stuff is really a fine tuning thing. Most of us are not on plane to begin with or if we are, not on a TSP at Top. The TSP concept is all about the Right Shoulder taking the Power Package down the Inclined Plane Angle in Startdown (that is whatever Plane Angle the Right Shoulder is Aligned to and assuming that the Pressure Points are on this same plane).

Words fail us when attempting to describe geometry. Maybe one of the biggest problems with Homers writings.

Wow, I've been arguing the merits of the TSP on other forums, and how much the "feel" of staying on it has helped revive my game. Now it's a myth? I've got to learn to keep my mouth shut...

I have been taking the "plane shifts are hazardous" argument literally. I guess when I look at my model swing, Brian, I see here is a plane shift, if only a small one.
