I'm not suggesting anything...just trying to make you think before you make such bold statements such as "always"...
The degree of right elbow bend is greatly affected not only by plane angle such as the turned shoulder plane...but ball location. right forearm angle of approach. amount of wrist bend, Right Shoulder Location, Amount of Downstroke Hip Slide..etc......etc...etc..
So lets assume the right forearm is on-plane.. the right wrist is level and bent....
Squared Shoulder Plane would have less amount of elbow bend less Waist Bend and Knee Bend than Turned Shoulder Plane..thus one would assume the Elbow Plane would have more elbow bend ,Waist Bend and Knee Bend....
Is the above "always" true?
I don't think my statement was actually that 'bold' since I used phrases such as "more likely", etc., which implies there are other things involved here. So don't take it as gospel!
Things tend to get exponentially complicated when we start looking at so many different factors. In such situations, I find it helpful to make the ceteris parabis (everything else equal) assumption. With that in mind, I would say my comments in post #8 is true. Of course, by merely increasing the bend in your right elbow, you would inevitably change a host of other things, but they changed to accomodate the right elbow bend, not the other way round. Also keep in mind the original purpose of my post is to shed some light on nevermind's question.
By the way, I really appreciate your insights and contributions David .
