Left arm and shaft angle is only one element. What about that pivot? That spine angle? Everyone in this thread may be covetous of the angle assuming its a power aide, but if most people , as in almost everyone, got into that position.....fore left. Again, IMHO
So what exactly is the logic behind the "I want to look like that" would you say? We are still fundamentally operating under the assumption as you state above that that "look" "position" is a "power aide".....is it? If this picture makes some "goo goo"...and some say this is "perfect"....but you say that "most people" end up fore left....is it a model position? Or is it chasing a "look"?

To this point those that say "wow that looks awesome"....haven't effectively defended as I see it why it is "awesome".....
