Yoda, OB, Drew,

Thanks for your answers, really helpful stuff. I will check the Level Left Wrist. I always assumed that my left wrist was level at address because the right wrist looked level in a mirror. But actually the left wrist might have been cocked just a little.

I do have 1/2" longer shafts, 2 degrees upright lie and midsize grips, so I guess that should be OK (I am 6 ft. 4").

The reason behind my question on component variations was that I figured Plane Angle might need an adjustment. When I am addressing and impacting on the Elbow Plane (double plane shift) I need to bend over more from the waist to be able to get my right forearm on plane (waist bend about 45 degrees, as opposed to about 30 degrees when I am on the Turned Shoulder Plane). I feel that this lowers the center of gravity of my body and that I find it easier to retain the same degree of waist bend during the stroke. Also, this should flatten the Angle of Attack (although I am not exactly sure if that's a good thing). On the other hand, I find it more "natural" to make a Zero Plane Shift stroke on the Turned Shoulder Plane. That was my standard pattern even before I learned about TGM.
