One more thing I just noticed :-> (maybe completely wrong). At impact, the right elbow should be higher relative to the shaft plane with the longer clubs than with the shorter clubs. The reason for this is that the longer clubs impact the ball closer to low point or follow through than the shorter clubs. I recall a post by Matthew where he mentioned that the right forearm travels from under plane in the swing, across the plane of the shaft, and ends up over the plane at follow through as the right elbow straightens. The implication of this is that the closer you are at impact to follow through, the higher the right elbow should be and the straighter the right arm should be.
So my thought is that trying to set your right forearm on plane at impact fix for your driver is not a good idea unless you are playing the ball well back in your stance. Another interesting implication of this is that there is only one ball position relative to your left shoulder where your right forearm is exactly on plane at impact.
