The Hitter's Load is against both Pressure Points #1 (the heel of the Right Hand against the Left Hand thumb) and #3 (the meaty part of the Right Forefinger). In most instances, the pressure is equally divided between the two, with #1 driving the Left Arm and #3 driving the Clubshaft. After the Pivot -- specifically the slow-moving Right Shoulder -- has done its work, the Right Elbow (actuated by the Right Triceps) drives both #1 and #3. Hence my Hitter's Dictum:
"Hit the Ball with 'One and Three.'"

You must forget about the Clubshaft Plane. If for no other reason, the Clubshaft simply cannot stay on it.
As the Sweetspot moves Up, Back and In On Plane, the Shaft rotates off its own Plane and onto the Sweetspot's Plane. For Swingers, that Rotation is accomplished during the Start Up Swivel. The Clubshaft then remains on the Sweetspot Plane during the remainder of the Backstroke and also into the Downstroke until the Release Swivel once again rotates the Shaft around the Sweetspot and back onto its own Plane.
