MJ,

For a number of reasons, the ideal Swing Plane is the Turned Shoulder Plane (10-6-B). Further, this may be accomplished with Zero Shift (10-7-A) -- that is, the Hands adhere to this Plane Angle throughout the Stroke and execute a Straight Line Delivery Path (10-23-A) to the Ball.

However, the procedure you have described -- "the hands dropping to Release point during the pivot" -- is a viable alternative and is catalogued as the Angled Line Delivery Path (10-23-D). That is, as the Leading Body Transports the Lagging Power Package to Release, the Hands take a nearly Vertical path to the Elbow Plane Angle before they drive directly at and through the Aiming Point.

There is no inconsistency here. There is only Homer Kelley's genius:

Straight Line or Angled Line. Your choice.

And there is no right or wrong. Only personal preference.

This is truth.

This is The Golfing Machine.
