[O.B.Left]

Homer at one point discussed the laid off look some really fine golfers get at Top. Well I guess its not really at Top but in the very first stages of Startdown. A little wag of the club to the left. I dont think Homer mentioned Hogan in particular but he tossed around the idea that it was an early adoption of the Elbow Plane alignments .... briefly off plane in appearance but soon to look on plane once the shift to the elbow plane is complete.

The thing about this photo that makes it really look off is his footline which shouldnt be assumed to be an indicator of where the Plane Line is. Foot line and Plane Line are not one and the same. Another possibility is a fade shot perhaps. Not saying Hogan didnt get laid off , he did sometimes...

Food for thought. You wouldnt want to lay it off if like this if you're not a shifter downer, elbow planer . Thatd be just plane wrong.

Me I got a feeling his Right Elbow is tucking in Pitch style and wagging the club ....which is an early adoption of an elbow plane alignments....
